Nice article but I don’t envy your challenge. You said:
“On top of the pile goes Magento, which is robust and feature-rich, but too damned complicated”. This seems to a something I see all too often which is why I setup

The recently released Magento 1.4 has some really great features which we’ve been waiting for.

Thanks for doing the shopping cart analysis. Frankly, I didn’t realize there were so many viable options. I would really like to see your evaluation in a grid where all of the finalist can be compared side by side.

Holy cow! That’s a huge list that you are doing. I am really interested in
1ShoppingCart and how they are.
Thanks

The Wedesign for ROI is a very good resource, thanks for sharing, I will use this and hopefully it works for me too. If possible please share some more on DCart. Thanks

@Kerri Lee — Howdy! And isn’t it interesting that I went and looked at CubeCart again because you’re enamored with it … to find that their newest version (v4) doesn’t require login (which is why I kicked em off).

I don’t think putting Captcha in the checkout is the best idea for the same reason (adds a level of frustration during a critical path), but so long as that’s optional, I’ll add them to the list of carts to look over for the update.

Either way, thanks for dropping in and pointing me at it again

Aww, I’m sorry to see CubeCart get cut. I’ve used oScommerce, ZenCart, PayPal, Magento, CKGold, E-Junkie, and Mal’s E-commerce before finding and falling in love with CubeCart. CubeCart has one of the best looking checkout pages I’ve seen and it’s extremely easy to customize for anyone who knows a little html and css.

Although the free version requires registration, the paid version does not. And at $180, it’s way cheaper than some of the monthly plans.

@Rachel The LemonStand site is really pretty. I may have to take a longer peek.

I’ll be interested to hear what you have to say about 3dcart as I recently completed a large ecommerce project based on it.

Oh man – what an awesome resource you’re building here! We’re looking to make a move in the near future at ILIAA.org, so you’d better believe we’ll be watching your guide grow with interest. Thanks!

I’m definitely going to be using the Furniture theme with a client when we add e-commerce to her site.

And I have the clothing store that I’m either going to use for one of my sites or a tentative client.

Sarah has done a great job!

Howdy Rachel~ Oh wow. I really, really like this. The stats in the admin area are pretty stellar, and I love how they mimic Google Analytics. Instantly comfy and non-scary. Love how customizable the design is. Wish the checkout was fewer pages, but this is my first glance. I bet there’s a way to manage it that I didn’t see.

Looks like I’ll be writing an update to the Guide next quarter, to include all these cool things that came in after the writing started Too late to add this in, but it’s way too nifty to ignore. Thanks so much!
