A Open Source eCommerce platform with free native options for multilingual management to sell internationally

A very complete basic solution for setting up your own international online store without having to rely on monthly SAS (Software as a Service) fees. It natively requires additional modules to handle content marketing at the level offered by other CMSs, for example, or to integrate additional functionalities, although there is a PrestaShop Addons Marketplace with modules/themes and a good online community of resources.

Pros:

Open Source eCommerce platform with free native options for multilingual management and advanced logistics/tax management to sell online internationally in multiple languages in different countries without the need for additional modules

Cons:

The Open Source version requires initial installation/configuration and ongoing updates, making it a more technical process with significant compatibility issues with older versions, modules, and themes. However, they now also offer a PS Cloud (Hosted/Enterprise) version as a SaaS service, where they handle all the technical aspects for a fee.

Reasons for choosing PrestaShop

Open Source natively included multilingual options and advanced logistics/tax management for international sales, without requiring large additional outlays on modules/themes/infrastructure

A good opensource ecommerce platform - but there are better options

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I only have experience of prestashop's open-source project, but on the projects I've used it on (a few years ago now) the platform catered for typical ecommerce needs well, allowing a low-cost shop to accept online sales and payments with a simple to use backend for clients.

Cons:

It was a few years ago that we used Prestashop, we found it to be a bit buggy at times and experienced a fair few breaking changes for updates. For this reason we ended up switching to other systems.

Ease of use

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

PrestaShop is an e-commerce CMS similar to WooCommerce that allows you to create online stores easily. The user interface is simple, and there are specific modules available for different types of projects. Templates are easy to find and install, and the platform handles everything from creating to publishing articles or online shops. It’s also simple to integrate an online payment system through APIs from payment service providers.

Cons:

PrestaShop is quite heavy to install locally and takes up a lot of space. Its modules are paid and often expensive for individuals. There are occasional bugs that can be difficult to fix, and the backend isn’t really designed for non-technical users.

Great e-commerce platform, particularly suitable for large catalogues

I have been using PrestaShop for several years, since version 1.6, and I can say that I know it quite thoroughly. I definitely prefer it to other e-commerce platforms for its completeness and the ability to manage large catalogues, even if it occasionally presents some small bugs that are almost never resolved in subsequent releases. Being very widespread, you can find online many third-party modules and templates at low prices.

Pros:

One of the most complete and efficient e-commerce systems around, very complete, customizable and also suitable for large catalogues. Excellent organization of the backoffice in managing orders and products.

Cons:

Unfortunately some small but annoying technical bugs are also retained in new releases. It must be known thoroughly in order to make technical changes. Some third-party modules occasionally conflict with each other.

Reasons for switching to PrestaShop

The editor was too basic for my needs. Monthly fees

A Beautiful User Interface Shopping Cart Software

Its a great shopping cart software , it only needs the developer of the shopping cart to make the admin dashboard to be easy to use, then all countries needs to be added by default in their future versions. As for the front end design, its perfect! then

Pros:

I so much love its themes because they're so elegant and responsive on all devices. Prestashop also has some nice plugins which are free then i love its product image zoom feature. Then cross-selling products on Prestashop is excellent. Ability to install different languages at the admin dashboard so that the website visitors can translate the store in their respective languages is great.

Cons:

Prestashop themes are expensive and their customer support doesn't respond on time which isn't good enough. All countries aren't installed in the localization section of the admin dashboard which will hinder those buyers from the excluded countries from completing their transactions. Whenever you have issues at the admin dashboard section, you must have a basic PHP knowledge to fix it

Reasons for choosing PrestaShop

The front end design of Prestashop and i don't know much about 3dcart so that made me choose Prestashop over 3dcart

Reasons for switching to PrestaShop

most of the modules of xCart are premium and costly then they aren't easy to install, any error while installing the modules can affect the entire website

An easy-to-use platform for creating simple websites

For your online store, Prestashop is analogous to a cargo ship. If you run a small business, you'll appreciate the ease of use and robust features that Prestashop offers for your online store.

Pros:

The front-end experience, including the interface, search functionality, and purchasing wizard, must be intuitive and simple to use. Managing products in the administration area is similarly simple and straightforward. The process is simple enough for a person with no technological background to manage.

Cons:

Theme support is weak when compared to rivals like Shopify and woocommerce. Further, it employs a PHP-based server, making it more vulnerable to malicious software.

Reasons for switching to PrestaShop

Excellent if your store is just getting started or is on the smaller side. It's simple to set up and offers a wide variety of personalization choices. In addition, many extensions are available for installation.

Good, but falling behind WooCommerce for WordPress

Nowadays the cons overweight's the pros when we compare with WooCommerce, so we basically almost gave up using it and are fully focused on WordPress, with great ROI based on that bet.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

We used to work with Prestashop for ecommerce up until 8 years ago roughly. We started to notice that WooCommerce was starting to evolve and the seamless integration with WordPress is behond "just another plugin". It literally works perfectly together to act as a great ecommerce platform. Also, having experience developing for both platforms (we develop and sell plugins/modules for both platforms) it's a lot faster to develop for WordPress/WooCommerce than it is for Prestashop.

Cons:

Community is not that huge compared to WordPress. Development, due to the way the core was created, is more time consuming than WordPress and that makes it less appealing because it costs more for customers.

Reasons for choosing PrestaShop

At the time, it was just better. WooCommerce was not mature yet and so we thought it was a good bet.
