No previous message | Next message →

Our company is looking to shortlist some commerce software for current (and
possibly future) clients. I have experience of co-creating a commerce
solution as well as using various software such as Actinic, Zencart etc, but
that was many years back. Now there are so many options available, I thought
I could possibly draw upon the experience of more current commerce
developers, particularly with regards to front-end accessibility.



Anybody have a shortlist? Or come across anything on their internet travels?



We are focusing on clients that sell tangible products (that may need to
offer size and colour choices, or ideally custom field data to achieve the
same result), who would require basic stock/processing/ordering management,
ability to upload images of the products, be able to add and organize
products easily, have good integration process with payment gateways, and
have SEO and front-end accessibility in mind. The ability to disable user
registration for user purchases would be ideal, and if customizable, php
framework would be a requirement.



I have Shopify in my sights right now, but that is on first impressions and
not actual testing.



We are also open to both hosted and standalone software solutions right now
as both have their merits.



Looking forward to your feedback and thanks for your time.

Accessible front-end is our target at present, so I am still looking into
this one. An accessible back-end would be ideal topping, but as yet we have
no clients that this would be advantageous to.

Thanks.
