My budget was too low - Thank God I've found Abante Cart

I have my own online store. What a dream come true :)

PROS

I'm using the free version, and it seems it has everything even for its free users... You have a big heart. I hope it will continue and you are not going to cut anything for us. Second the best part of this wonderful utility is it's admin interface. Very easy to use and human friendly. I give you a five start without any hesitation.

CONS

Some difficulty I have faced in user management specially when disabling and deleting users. But overall it's a fantastic tool.

Good But Needs Small Changes

AbanteCart is good software on which to build a online store. I do enjoy it, however i find that it has a few minor weaknesses that need to be taken into consideration. With the constant changing economy and the currencies fluctuating in their exchange values regularly, there needs to be a more automated way to update the currencies from a central server. This way admins don't have to log in every 15 mins to consistently change this detail to avoid losses. A few free templates to assist users in having options in making their store look good is always good. AbanteCart has a block that provides the user with an option to say thank you to abantecart to advertise their product as well.

Shopping Cart for Small Business

PROS

I use this for my small eCommerce business and it works perfectly for me. Some of the things I love in AbanteCart is the modification of price, coupons, tax/weight/size measurement is easier and automatically included in the generated receipt which is printable and branded.

CONS

I do not have any problem till date with AbanteCart but using it for a very large retail store might be otherwise.

The updates can be a little messy and confusing. The administrator's configuration is not very positive and friendly. Usually missing more free templates for the election

PROS

Easy to install and it doesn't have advertising that I can't control. In Fact, I can manipulate every aspect of this app with great ease. My customers quite like it's simplicity too.

CONS

Haven't found a problem yet. I estimate that any problem that I come across would be easily fixed. I already have a good understanding of the software.

Great free E-commerce application

I am impressed with their customer support. I am a regular visitor to their forum http://forum.abantecart.com/ and you can see how responsive they are. I had issues with setting my SSL and I asked a question their and one of their team member replied in few hours that solved my issue.

PROS

It is free and has all the bells and whistles that a standard paid application has

CONS

It does lack on UI which is looks. They should definitely fix it also their documentation is not up-to-date

Excellent Product / Intuitive Interface / Extensive Documentation / Comprehensive Modules

I examined several other products and was deploying a competitor with little success. After examining the AbanteCart website, demo, documentation, and user forum I deployed. Deployment using bitnami was faultless as was setting up the site. Documentation includes under 2 minute youtube demonstrations on the critical steps. The list of included modules is impressive. 1) payment platforms, 2) shipping platforms, 3) Google Analytics, 4) recaptcha, 5) customer, order & sales reporting, and 6) integrated error logs.

PROS

Open source. Comprehensive included modules. Forum support -- less than 1 day in my experience. Documentation. Intuitive interface.

CONS

AH. None that I am aware of!

Better than ZenCart because it's easier to set up. Some issues but overall excellent.

I was able to set up my store pretty quick.

PROS

Easy to set up. Good help most of the time in the forums to help get over the humps. Pretty happy overall.

CONS

A lack of templates - Might be good though as I had to figure out all of the code and places to customize my E-Comm store. What could use major attention is rewriting the manuals with more details for the how to stuff. I think this is intentional. There is just enough info to get you in a mess and then head to the forum for help.

User Friendly Experience

I am aming to start a eStore for cosmetics, i thought to test differrent carts. surprisingly AbanteCart is proving to be my first and last shoping cart to test. for now i stop thinking to go and test another cart. I am almost done with my configuration and aiming to shift this test environment into production without any doubt. Thanks to developers for making such a good product for no price but surely i will donate something for this wonderful experience. Thank you AbanteCart

Vendor Response

Why did you give us such a low review for customer service. Please do not confuse AbanteCart with commercial application. Our community forum is very active with helping resolving any issue and very fast. This is not fare to guys on a forum. Thank you

Very Nice Platform

Hi Guys !!! This is the first time I' m testing Abante and it looks pretty good ! I have a tiny little problem with index.php & config.php. The platform wants to change the permissions of these files. Although the permissions have been changed, Abante insists [???] This happens to the updated version 1.2.4. I don't know if this is a bug, but you are kindly requested to fix it. Try it !!!

Vendor Response

This is not a bug. Make sure you put permission the way that your web server can not write to these 2 files. This is done to enforce security of your web application.
