Product Hotspot

Now you can sell your Products directly on the Virtual Tour:

  • Manage Products on Panoee.
  • Make purchase with Shopify or Paypal Smart buttons.
  • Or just add checkout link to your custom e-commerce.

Custom Domain

Publish Bundle & Export (Frontend)

Panoee truly becomes the freest Cloud-based Virtual Tour software platform available to all users by allowing the export. Now, Panoramic Photographers can manage and update the content on the Studio system, then export files to self-host on the Server.

Export Frontend: Panoee exports a compact Virtual Tour interface file for users to host on their Server, but all data & files are still stored on Panoee’s system. This feature allows users to keep Virtual Tour updated in real-time without a hitch while still using their own domain & hosting.

Hotspot Theme

Change the look & feel of all Hotspots in one place, which helps increase brand awareness. You can find this in the tab “Design.”

Custom Slug

To have a professional virtual tour link, the first thing you need to do is change the slug. Instead of using the default project name slug, you can customize it and choose a shorter and easier-to-remember one.
