3dcart Software

Works well, but feels clunky

I used this for a client who wanted to set up an ecommerce site who had selected it beforehand. It took a while to learn, but it did work well once I dug in and worked my way through the settings, parameters, and various things that needed to be set up and tweaked. Worked when when setting up single products but got harder when trying to upload big batches at once.

Pros

3dCart has a ton of options and themes and flexibility. It offers tools both for the non-coder and the coder and an extensive CMS to cover almost every potential need of the do-it-yourself ecommerce vendor.

Cons

There are SO many options that I find it difficult to find the setting I need to adjust or edit. Online or email help is sporadic...but good when you can get it.

Great customer service

Overall solid trust worthy platform to build your ecommerce site with.

Pros

Easy to get ahold of custmer service when issues arrose.

Cons

Difficulties integrating with platforms such as facebook and instagram.

Simple to utilize for any new website

Pros

I have utilized this to help setup a few websites for friends and family. It greatly simplifies the time needed to get a website functioning for eCommerce use.

Cons

Some of the code that I encountered seems like it was thrown together quickly. I imagine with a few more dev & QA iterations it will be further along. Look for future versions of this product to really work well.

Difficult

The thing is I didn't

Pros

Pros Themes are better than most platforms and they are free this is the only thing good about 3d cart is the themes

Cons

I found this platform is very difficult to use and not enough apps for drop shipping at all I found it difficult to add products and I would not recommend them to anyone only if you are a webmaster I cancelled due to really no support.

Love it

Pros

We currently are using 3dCart as our e-commerce sales platform and this shopping car addon is certainly nice to have. It's very useful and easy to use. Everything is explained on the site.

Cons

No cons with 3dCart's shopping cart itself. My only beef is that the 3dCart platform is a little pricey.

Great as a whole

Pros

The 3dcart-platform is a good starter e-commerce platform for those trying to launch a commerce store. It's easy to use and offers a complete e-commerce solution.

Cons

Not a huge fan of the different price-tier plans that they offer. If you're on the lower plans you seem to always exceed you bandwidth limit.

Good Solution if you are looking for a template builder!

Pros

The ability to switch the overall look of the site is very simple. There are various templates available as well.

Cons

It is a bit pricey and has a lot of restrictions regarding products. If you wanted to upload a decent amount of products to your site, the monthly fee is pretty high.

3d Cart - Awful - Look for another Solution

Pros

Overall, I can't say much good about this software. It's an abomination for the e-commerce and really doesn't deliver the experience that the viewer would enjoy

Cons

Search Engine marketing suffers with the use of this software
Does not deliver the experience for the viewer
Browsers have bugs and issues with the software

Good start but ultimately had to switch

It was a great start for my eCommerce business

Pros

It's an all in one solution for eCommerce, has more features you'll need to start your business or run your online store at it's simplest form. Good customer service.

Cons

Lack of plugins and customization like Wordpress Woocommerce offers. Customization involves costly up sells from the 3dcart team. Exporting to another platform if and when you're ready is NOT clean and easy of a process. Was very messy to bring data to woocommerce.

The strength of 3dcart is in it's features, customization and product listings

Pros

3dCart provides a lot of options and features for customizing your online store. There is more customization available than others- if your products have multiple options the customer needs to select prior to adding an item to the cart, 3dcart is a good fit. If you have a large catalog, 3dcart is also a good fit. Prices are competitive. 3dcart is good for small to medium sized businesses. It is easy to set up and design a basic ecommerce store.

Cons

The design, look and feel of the websites, look dated compared to other ecommerce options. The user checkout is not the easiest. There is also a bit of a learning curve when using the administration interface.

Almost a perfect program, but there are a few kinks that need to be worked out.

Pros

The software is quite user friendly after learning the in's and out's. It makes cataloging orders super easy.

Cons

Occasionally the system can get very glitchy and mess up the final total cost of items purchased from the store. There seems to be a disconnect sometimes which can be very frustrating.

A Shopping Cart Jammed with Features, But a few issues prevented us from staying with them..

Pros

3dCart has so many features it's awesome. You can tweak every product to have individual options and custom messages etc. It also can handle buy buttons that you can place on other websites. The individual product options were very impressive.

The user interface was easy to use.

Lots of third part applications are integrated as well.

Cons

The stock templates always felt very dated. The layout blocks for new top sellers and new items etc are features that are never used on todays professional websites. The in store search did not work well and the filtering options were extremely limited without an add-on...which was still limited.

The Mobile functionality was somewhat broken and people were not able to checkout for a while.

The Customer Service wasn't too bad. The Chat was easy to get in touch, but the people on the other side didn't seem to understand their own platform sometimes. The email support was super slow.

A lot of glitches but it gets the job done

Pros

The one thing I do like about this software is that they are constantly updating and adding features. Products are easy to add. Orders are easy to manage.

Cons

The constant updates do cause glitches within the system. Unfortunately, customer service isnt always instant. I also wish there was more fields on the product page to add additional information. Fraudwatch is usually hit or miss. Sometimes it helps, most of the time it doesn't.

Great Features!

Pros

Really great features with this software for selling on social media such as Facebook, Ebay, Pinterest, etc. There are some great plugins as well that give you access to email, newsletters, CRM, etc. Overall, it's very easy to use!

Cons

Some of the features come with an additional cost. It's sometimes annoying because I already pay for the software and it seems like an unnecessary cost.

very easy to use and customer service brill

Pros

pretty fast even with low wifi , strong piece of equipment and is not fragile so don't be afraid to get hands on

We used the site for one year.

Pros

Super easy to set up, very intuitive. Customer service was a plus, eager to help and easy to get ahold of.

Cons

A lot of items are add ons. We did not get the paid SSL but used the shared one that comes with the base price. Found out this was a mistake.

Great software

Pros

Great software for create the first shopping cart, the integration with zapier its beta yet, but works correctly

Cons

The plugins are very expensive, it's hard to customize the style, limited number of users and permissions

I am amazed at how many good things 3D cart does.

Pros

It is feature rich. It does everything it should, and It even has modules that can be turned on that do even more. This is an excellent shopping cart and I now have three of them. Easy to use once you get the hang of it.

Cons

There are some things I would like to add, things I consider to be basic customizations, like the ability to add flat rate shipping at different rates per product. 3D Cart has for hire programmers to do it but for a steep price. I would like more affordable customizations.

I use this cart now only by the point of sale

Pros

The software is good, but it is very difficult to integrate with other tools, I had to use zapier to be able to automate all my processes, but in general it has worked correctly

Cons

the addons are very expensive, it is difficult to develop something extra, the support by chat is not live, in reality they generate tickets and take a few hours to answer, you can not use your own SSL, it is necessary to buy one with them

Good for managing small business needs

Pros

It's easy to add and edit new products. It's customizable to your needs as a small business which is nice.

Cons

It can be a little glitchy here and there. There's a lot of little tricks that could be beneficial to you but aren't apparent on the website.
