What is the Best Shopping Cart software?

Magento, Zen cart and Prestashop ..

You can use shopperpress with wordpress if you want ..

 

Carts need a payment add-on. We use paypal for almost everything, with a cheque option for those who prefer. paypal gives the customer the choice of using their paypal account or jusat paying by creditcard.

As for carts - we use Zencart across all our ecommerce sites.

Well Peter, I won't comment on what you said about the carts as I have already commented on it but one thing I would like to say on the quote in your signature. The quote is too good man, you have probably given one of the best comparisons I have seen till now. Hats off to you .

 

You can also use Virtue mart with Joomla , I have been using that now and it is also free and very good , I have not tried Magenta but have heard a lot of good things about it

 

I think Magento(free edition) is the best shopping cart so far.....their support also ok....This Shopping Cart also more user friendly...

 

PrestaShop or OpenCart are good choices.

OsCommerce is the best! By far!

 

OScommerce is for ecommerce websites but there is something make this CMS conflict with the DB settings. You can try Wordpress, eCommerce template and use eCommerce plug in.

 

I've tried a lot of platforms and modules. I've chosen Prestashop and cs-cart for myself.

 

I've used Zen Cart and I liked it.

 

I'm paying for the service of www.shoppingcartelite.com and I'm getting my money's worth.

 

i like zencart, support for marketing

 

OS Commerce is very difficult to install and use – and it’s very limiting. There’s not enough features to run an entire professional business. The same goes with ZenCart. Magento almost has it right, but it’s also very difficult to install and it’s slow.

You should look into a total online business platform such as Haiku O.B. which handles shopping cart, website, customer database and marketing features. It’s a hosted solution so you don’t have to worry about the technical stuff either. All the other bases are also integrated, such as the payment gateways, shipping modules etc., and you can even give your customers coupons and vouchers. It’s an all in one solution so you don’t need to juggle multiple systems.

You would set up a Business or Premier account with Paypal. You will go through the usual routine of them (that is PayPal) verifying your identity. After they've verified your identity. There are some things you can do to increase your limit. You can join a bank account with your PayPal account and verify your SSN. Since you'd be considered a new vendor using their (PayPal's) service they will temporarily hold any funds from orders made from your ecommerce site until after the customer receives their package. I know this is how they do things with ebay. Someone can correct me if I'm in error if they do things differently with other ecommerce sites that you specifically own. After your account as been establish for awhile they will lift this restriction and you can request to withdraw monies from your PayPal to your bank account.

If you want the monies to go directly into your bank account when a customer places an order on your site then you would set up a Business (Merchant) checking account. I don't know specifically where you're at you can go to your local bank and find out what are the specific requirements for setting up a Merchant account with them. They will want to see that your site is up and has the products loaded on it before they will set up an account though. I know that is how it is here in the U.S.

PayPal isn't a shopping cart, Paypal is a payment processor. A big difference between the shopping carts mentioned. You need a shopping cart (i.e. Magento) than you or your developer would install PayPal's API to process the payments made through your website. Do you understand now how everything works?

 

I have used Zencart in the past for a short period of time. They did a great job and was very easy to customize.

 

I used to use cs-cart for all my clients, but licensing issues forced me to look elsewhere. I tried just about every damn cart out there, but in the end I settled on opencart as it offers everything one could really need, it's free and the support forum is very active and helpful. Also it doesn't eat up server resources like magento and it's very easy to customise and work on the code.
Opencart (and maybe prestashop, but it's code is a bit outdated) is really the modern way to go - osc / zen etc are just way too old and they look it !

 

Try www.shoppingcartelite.com as well and. This might meet your requirements. Explore other options.

 

I think X-Cart Gold(run with up to 500 000 products).
