I had never heard of them but I'm glad I checked them out. They are located in the US, have great value for money and give control to build a great website.

We have had your web page server for a little over a year now and are very happy with it. Any issues that arise are taken care of pretty quickly by your customer service department.

Good basic features for creating a website. Drag and drop and editing it pretty nice.

Very friendly user interface and feature rich.

Terrible product, terrible service and support.

This shopping cart has unlimited product options and is very user friendly. No instruction manual is needed.

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 great product with wonderful customer support.

Overall customer service has been great. The software is not very intuitive.

If you are technically savvy you can also make use of various other plugins. We liked it because ir can easily be integrated to google products as well.

For the price, it offers a lot of functionality and opportunity for 3rd party integrations.

Horrible to customize design, features, functions of their CMS. Very little developers in the US can even help.

We have had a very positive experience with the usability of 3d cart.

Well-priced service with plenty of customization options and excellent customer support.

Cheaper than the competition. Most importantly, the ability to tag items with metadata and key words for SEO purposes.

Great Company but difficult to get help when you need it.

3dCart is my fourth ecommerce platform, best so far, great features for the money.

My overall experience until recently has been very good. I could generally figure out what I needed to do on my own.

I like it and have recommended many other businesses to use it.

If you know html and css, the software is super customizable.

Huge database with How To info. Helpful customer service, quick to phone and the chat feature is handy.

Hiding out of stock items with multiple variables, changing main image based on customer option selected, option to hide. In advanced options are some basic features this software is lacking.

The user interface was easy to use. Lots of third part applications are integrated as well.

There is no way to make price adjustments without changing each one individually. It is repetitive and time consuming.

My experience with 3dcart has been great. I am always able to get help from tech support if needed.

Offering a comprehensive e-commerce solution. It has retail multi-channel and marketing capabilities as well, an advanced customizable platform.

There are SO many options that I find it difficult to find the setting I need to adjust or edit.

Their system is easy to use and had a great set of features. We literally had our store up and running in just days.

I was searching for a platform that had the bells and whistles which Yahoo merchant solutions missed so badly.

Our company is looking for a reliable Platform for over growing company. We are still using our Free trial and overall it is very impressive.

Everything regarding to money gets deferred to a non-working billing department. I left many unanswered messages and no responses.

Do we feel more comfortable with our inventory counts.

I noticed this software is awesome in keeping records, also in inventory management and keep any transaction that will help you and the company.

It glitches out constantly and seems to do crash the most when you are in the middle of something time-sensitive. It's not very easy to navigate and the program isn't very intuitive.

If you work with someone who really knows this product then they can can help you with a solution that will help your business achieve the best results.

Data flows transparently in both directions. Also, their staff are really wonderful at helping you - they're easy to talk over challenges with, and always ready to help.

It has been good so far. Tech support has room for improvement, but overall it has been a good program.

Most of the support techs I have spoken with have bad attitudes.

Acctivate is a great inventory management software that integrates with QuickBooks. Their setup/onboarding process is great to assist with ensuring the file is setup for your business.

It synchronizes with QuickBooks very easily also. The only problem we have had in the past eight years is that every time there is a upgrade, the crystal report templates get screwed up.

Excellent company toi work with, great support, quick to response to any issue.

It tends to crash if you are not updated in new version.

The software is the best on the market that will allow you to remain in QuickBooks. Additionally, the fact that it leverages SQL and Crystal Reports makes it a truly good value.

Intuitive UI that is well thought out. Fantastic customer support.

No real audit trail tracking/reporting so seeing who did what can be a challenge.

We've had a good experience with Acctivate and customer support is helpful and responsive.

I like the posting process overall (much easier than a batch system - i.e., Sage 100). The vendor provides excellent support and has outstanding, knowledgeable, helpful support staff.

Would I recommend this program to anyone else that I know.

They don't seem to transfer well. One time we lost all our custom templates and had to have them remade.

The yearly maintenance fee, hard to swallow for what it does for our buisness.

The biggest challenge with Acctivate is that it seems to crash for no obvious reason and sometimes with no warning. When this happens, whatever is being worked on is lost.

Just an inferior product that will keep taking your money. We are cutting our losses and moving on.

Easy to use, great help from activate for setup, all customer records are transparent, well organized, so does the inventory.

The system is robust and always improving. The value for the price is unmatched.

Once you decide to post something in Acctivate you cannot go back and edit that post. Also if you use unearned revenue and pay a deposit on a invoice you cannot go back and edit notes on the invoice.

This is an excellent product that is from an equally excellent vendor whose attention to customer service and details are superb.

Inventory management includes ability to manage using bins and multiple physical or virtual warehouses. This is a strong feature for an application in this price range.

When working with so many software vendors; you dread picking up the phone or sending that email because you know you will get the run around no matter how thorough you are with your description.

It can do almost anything you need it to do when it comes to managing your inventory. What I like best about the Activate Inventory software is it's integration to QuickBooks.
