Also, you can own and control the entire source code. ----- ### "Great eCommerce software, but better options are available" — 4.0/5 > **Ben** | *14 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: OpenCart is a very decent software that offers extensive features for both digital and physical marketplaces, if you are selling tangible or intangible items there are various categories you can use. A wonderful community behind it to support you thorugh it and make things available that were not necessarily available before. It is also a really decent way to collect funds and allow your clients a decent experience to implement your own commercial marketplace of any sort of product. > > **Cons**: I was not fond of the design, or the lack of real support at times. The community is very helpful but the developers themselves are not very responsive. I ended up using a different eCommerce software. > > My experience with OpenCart was hit-and-miss, whilst it seems to focus more towards physical items, it does also work fine with digital. ----- ### "A good cms but not the best choice" — 5.0/5 > **Davide** | *13 May 2024* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Open cart is a brilliant solutions for e-commerce. However is not still update and don't have enoughe integrations with other tools so it make it useless. > > **Cons**: The easy to use and is affordable in the setting up ----- ### "OpenCart- the best Free e-commerce platform available\!" — 4.0/5 > **john** | *11 April 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Everyone loves free, but when free delivers with excellent results, that's even better. I've been using OpenCart for a variety of projects over the years and it just keeps getting better. Very good at payment processing and inventory tracking as well with their inventory management extension/add-on. > > **Cons**: It could do more for fraudulent order tracking/management. > > Very good system, I enjoy using it as it is very reliable and consistent. ----- ### "OpenCart is the easy option for e-commerce solutions" — 5.0/5 > **Aris** | *3 January 2021* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a developer, I like the Model-View-Controller design pattern, it's easy to seperate things and understand the code, as well as reuse different controllers or models through the development of new extensions, as a result it's easy to make what it looks like native extensions, without breaking the software functionality if you follow the coding standards already used by the OpenCart developers. I think that the OCMOD system is the most intelligent way to extend OpenCart's functionality and I admire the developer who invented it. As for the UI, it's easy to use because all sections are seperated and grouped on the left column menu. Moving from other platforms to Opencart or moving from older OpenCart versions to newers is very easy especially from v2 to v3. From a user's point of view, OpenCart is like using an app, it's that easy. Labels and hints make it easier for new users to adapt as well as new customers to buy. > > **Cons**: Even though OpenCart is stable since the beginning, I think we need more functionality that other platforms are having and would be nice if we could move them to OpenCart too. Not major functionality, but different minor things that will improve the workflow of an e-commerce owner, such as a summary page that will show products missing images, products with broken images, categories with no products, products with no descriptions or products missing translations etc. I think in the era of Javascript it would be nice if we could convert some pages that the administrator spends a lot of time to AJAX functionality or even Single Page Application so that we can make more and massively in less time. Although, that would break some 3rd party extensions obviously. > > We use OpenCart for retail stores as well as wholesale (B2B) stores. Using the native functionality and OCMOD we can make OpenCart behave like a Swiss Army knife, from Retail store to Wholesale store. This is buying as a lot of time, because choosing another platform or writing a new one for the purpose of a wholesale store would be time consuming, and let's not talk about the time that customers will need to adjust the get trained to use their wholesale store on top of the retail store. So, using the same technology and habits of coding functionality and the same User Experience and User Interface buys us a lot of time of development, training and setting up. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/143516/opencart?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/143516/opencart) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
