Which would be the best and easiest eShop system to use? I have looked at absolute shopping cart and 123reg. Is there any better sites that you would reccommend? Thanks Johnny
How to say which is the best, its very much dependant on what you want from it. magento is great but is mainly for bigger sites. oscommerce is good and has everything you could ever want for add ons - but is also very old so code isnt the best and personally not my choice. storesprite looks nice, i nearly went with this. prestashop - i have gone with this as i think its very good. just a few to look at.
Prestashop is the easiest to deal with and is really fast. Magento is enterprise level stuff. Both are free and fairly easy to deploy. If you have good images and are serious about it, Magento is the way to go. Nigel
Personally, I think it's Big Commerce. One of the easiest to use ecommerce software. Drag & drop store design, 46 ready template, optimized by SEO experts, online HTML/CSS Editor, W3C compliant themes just to name a few features. Try it FREE for 15 days and see for yourself.
There are a lot of free & good shopping carts on the market, have a look: http://www.bestshoppingcarts.net
VM is free, i like it vešry much but if you are looking for a really easy + fast + free system, try PrestaShop.
Personally i use Oscommerce because it is so easy to use, it can be totally customized, there are unlimited addons for it, and lots of people are ready to offer good advise if you happen to run into any problems. Say you are working on setting up your site and you are not sure what the best way is to code it, just search the oscommerce support forum and 99% of the time someone else already had the same problem and has had it fixed. I wouldn't use anything else.
Try UltraCart, I find it easy to use and you can do upsells plus recurring billing for subscription services. I have used XCart, Open Commerce and they both are hard to setup/manage. BigCommerce is okay, not great for upsells though. Shopify is great for consumer items, simple to setup but lacking in customization. Okay, you can google ultracart o use My aff Link for helping you out: http://zedomax.biz/go/ultracart

Does anyone like Volusion? , i am using volusion for past 1 and half, it's good software, vey good for google, get crawled everyday. The only issue, i have , is shipping methods. they don't have anything for my business. i am not drop shipper, so, i am charges my clients for delivery, how far they from my base. Volusion does not have zip code intergrated in to the software, so, it's useless for me. But they do , as i said live quotes from Fedex, UPS, etc. cost: it's free template or you can buy, and then it's cost per month, depent on your plan, from 29 to 500 a month can cost. Over all its very solid platform and can be used, if you workig with thousands or even ten thousands products, like i do.
