kate281 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Hello all - I am new to Prestashop and currently using Magento. This is my first Magento store having used various platforms in the past including BigCommerce. I am finding myself doing more and more technical stuff with the store instead of marketing. We seem to constantly have issues crop up - not necessarily because of Magento itself but we're dealing with things we haven't had to before by not using an SAAS solution like BigCommerce which is a bit of a no brainer solution. The reason we went with Magento is we needed multi warehouse support and the ability to calendar our sales for products in advance. (With Magento you can put products on sale for a specific period using a calendar system.) However, for the reasons I stated in the first paragraph, I am looking at possibly moving from Magento as we are a small operation and my time could easily be spent elsewhere as opposed to technical issues and worrying if our cart is even working! I'm nervous of Presta Shop as its another open source solution which makes me think of Magento. Could someone please provide their thoughts and advice? I would very much appreciate it! Thank you!

elisadeb Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I'vent used prestashop before but I've good experience with Magento and BigCommerce. Personally I feel that magento is the all time solution when any hosted ecommerce solution fails to provide great functionality and customization. When it comes to Magento, you are free to create your extensions or customize it as per your requirements with ease (although sometimes developers find hard to deal with magento) . Magento always wins!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
