The Cimex corporation recognized that the tuenvio.cu virtual sales platform “has maintained a very unstable operation” due to the high demand generated for this service, after the closure to the public of large shopping centers in Havana and their establishment as virtual stores.
During the weekend, and until this Thursday, maintenance work has been carried out “uninterruptedly” on the digital system that allows these commercial operations, said a note from Cimex published in Cubadebate.
New equipment to manage network traffic, optimization of product images and increased performance of the infrastructure associated with the service are some of the “aspects that must be improved,” according to the corporation’s response to its customers.
The platform only supports payments from Cuba, through the Transfermovil application and the Telebanca card, they plan to increase bandwidth, only for national navigation and, incidentally, avoid requests from abroad.
“There is still a lot of work to do,” admits Cimex in the note, in which it assures it is “taking into consideration the suggestions sent to us by many of the customers.”
