Two User Groups with Completely Different Needs

CutTime needed a CMS that worked for two groups:

  1. Vendors: a straightforward way to add and manage products, handle shipping and taxes, and keep inventory organized.
  2. Program Directors: a user-friendly set of tools to create and manage storefronts for their schools, browse vendor catalogs, and support students through checkout.

Building the Solution

When CutTime reached out in 2023, they needed a way to simplify how vendors and program directors managed their tasks. We built a Retool CMS that integrates seamlessly with their existing Next Gen platform. Vendors can add and edit products, manage inventory, and configure shipping and taxes. Program directors can create and manage storefronts for their schools and browse vendor catalogs. The system integrates Stripe for payments.

Impact that Matters

[ Results]

The CMS transformed how CutTime manages its day-to-day operations, benefiting vendors, program directors, and students alike.

Efficient Product Management

Vendors now have a central hub to update product details, manage inventory, and handle taxes, all without needing technical support.

Simpler Workflows

With tools like bulk uploads and quick toggles for product availability, vendors can work faster and with fewer errors.

Better Shopping Experience

Families and students enjoy a simple, hassle-free checkout process, while program directors can manage storefronts with ease.
