rturner Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I just set up Prestashop for a smaller store with around 100 products. I absolutely love it! The look, the functionality, the ease...I could go on. I would really like to use it for my other store with 2000 to 3000 products, but I'm hesitant to put all that work in and find out that it runs really slow. I'm seeing comments like that around the web. Would all the basic tweaks like using smaller images, cache, etc. allow this to work? If anyone is using Prestashop for a larger store, I'd love to hear comments. Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kranzler Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hi rturner, PrestaShop can work on sites of any size. I would recommend that you check out our showcase of live shops to see how larger brands are able to succeed with PrestaShop. I hope this helps. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturner Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Thanks, Mike. That's really great to hear. I clicked around a few of the stores and it seems like they do have a large number of products on them and load fast. I didn't want to spend a lot of time building a site and then finding out that I should have put it on something like magento (which I really didn't want to have to resort to). P-shop is amazing!

Guest Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I am going to build a tickets selling website with 100k visitors, 5k+ orders/ 1day. Will Prestashop work for the shop well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomeye Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Dkjoomla, Prestashop should be able to handle your volume easily, however your concern should be with hosting. I am assuming you will be on a dedicated server or a VPS at the very minimum. In theory any well designed application should be able to handle your volume, however at those numbers, database space and bandwidth will be your primary concerns. Also when choosing your theme, you want one which is does not have any (or too many) changes to the core code, and you want to use the latest stable build of prestashop Good luck !!
