The corporationCIMEXannounced this Tuesday the implementation of a mechanism to authenticate users on the online shopping platformYourShipping.
"Dear customers, today, we have implemented a new Captcha, which appears randomly after making multiple requests to the platform," CIMEX reported.
As explained by the corporation in a statement, the measure is aimed at equalizing the possibilities between customers, since they are aware of the use of tools to automate requests to the site and even some that reserve the merchandise by uploading it to the cart.
"The variety of tools they use for this purpose varies, depending on the devices used, or the preparation that customers have, but in reality it is something very easy to do, and it leaves those who buy on the fly deprived of the opportunity. natural way", adds the text.
CIMEX cited as examples the tools iMacro, Selenium, Autoclicker or FastTap, used to simulate a person's navigation, making repetitive cycles of refreshing and adding to the cart.
"With this mechanism implemented, after a certain number of requests, the platform will ask to solve a Captcha, which consists of selecting an image in a set of 9," he adds.
Finally, the corporation points out that this mechanism, although it does not resolve the issues of merchandise availability, mitigates the automatic processes that prevent more equitable access to the products.
Since TuEnvío, the virtual store of the CIMEX corporation, emerged, it has not stopped receiving criticism from customers.
On one occasion, the Cuban Yusleidy Reyes denounced on Facebook the delays andthe inefficiency of the virtual store, to which he placed an order that arrived incomplete 12 days later.
Another Cuban also had a "disastrous" experience with TuEnvío,because the purchase arrived incomplete, and the authorities at the Cuatro Caminos store explained to him that some products were simply not available in the establishment.
Even the Cuban comedianUlises Toirac criticized the service: "They are slow (sometimes so slow that they make it impossible to buy), they are not adequate to the magnitude of access and they have a cumbersome and poorly programmed management system. I base this on the long page presentation times (even when they have dispensed with the photos of the products which seems like a joke to me), in which you may put something in "your cart" so that later the system tells you that the availability is sold out and that most of the time "The servers are closed to 'be able to process the volume of orders placed' and many other troubles that buyers on those sites go through."
