Zen Cart

Best shopping cart software around

Commentaires : Great software. I use it on several sites. There is pretty much a plugin for anything you want to do. Highly reccomended.

Avantages :

Easy to use . Many plugin features. Pretty much anything you want to do , there is a plugin.

Inconvénients :

Somewhat hard to figure some things out at times.

Excellent ECommerce Solution

Commentaires : It has been an excellent ecommerce solution for our campground and I am very happy.

Avantages :

I have used this software for over 5 years with a client and it has served us well. Each year, I load in the new events for the summer camping season and add links to the separate website. It is quick, provides a quick and easy way for our customers to pre-register. I am so glad I decided to go with this 3rd party software than trying to set up my own system.

Inconvénients :

I have not found any cons. I have had to troubleshoot customer orders or different features but there is a rich and diverse support system from other having similar issues.

Great cart, but not very beginner friendly.

Avantages :

The cart is open source, so it is perfect for those on a budget. Once you get it set up, adding categories and products are fairly easy, just a bit time consuming.

Inconvénients :

I run my own social network, and I couldn't set up ZenCart myself. I had to pay a friend to do it. There's just so much work involved with settings and criteria that needs to be done that it was overwhelming for a first timer. A clearer, more concise back end would be a wonderful thing.

Zen Cart is an easy to implement ecoomerce solution to companies fo any size

Avantages :

The implementation process is really easy, support is on point and it really solves most of ecommerce needs for companies of any size.

Inconvénients :

It could have better tracking capabilities but there are always work arounds to get that fixed.

Great Open Source Shopping Cart!

Avantages :

Once you have it downloaded & set up. Functionality is fantastic. You can see behind the scenes. If a potential customer calls and wants to know if their order went through online (because in reality it did not), you can actually see where the breakdown happened & what they had in their cart even if they were shopping as a guest. The program definitely requires a learning period but it is worth it.

Inconvénients :

Requires a good amount of tech knowledge. If you are not tech savvy or don't have someone that is, then this is not the way to go. You will only get support through the forums & "tickets". There is no phone support.
