I've used Magento for two sites, but I'm evaluating Prestashop, too.My questions are:1) Are there groped products?2) Volume/Quantity discount3) Cross Sell4) Documentation5) More business/pro dashboardThank you in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 1) Yes, you can group together products as a pack, but the functionality is limited compared to some other shopping carts.2) Yes, you can add an amount quantity discount or % quantity discount.3) Yes, they just added a cross-selling module to Prestashop v1.3 RC5.4) No, except for the Wiki at the top of the page, there is little documentation on PrestaShop. However, the forums are full of helpful information and some people have written unofficial documentation.5) The Back Office in PrestaShop looks good and is simple to use.

BiagioParuolo Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Thank you for your reply.I forget:6) SOAP Api?7) Upsell8) NewsLetterReply:1) Can you explain, why is limited?2) I don't find where is config for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 6) No, there is no SOAP API.7) Yes, PrestaShop allows you to add accessories to a product and on the Modules tab, there is a Products Category module in the Products section that allows you to advertise products in the same category as the current product, a birthday present module that lets you give a voucher to a customer on their birthday and customer follow-up module that lets you send a voucher to good or bad customers to encourage them to buy more.8) Yes, PrestaShop allows customers to subscribe to your newsletter when they create their account or by using a newsletter block on the website. Unfortunately, you can't write the newsletter and send it out from the Back Office. There is only the option to export the subscribed email addresses to a CSV file that you can use to send out the newsletter using a third-party application.1) The Pack option on the "1. Info." tab allows you to attach other products to the current product to make a pack. That is all you can do.2) Quantity discounts are on the "6. Discounts" tab of the product editor.

Steppo Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Hi!Sorry to interfere but if you would develop a new shop with Presta would it be with latest stable version (1.2.5) or the very "latest"?Greetings - Stefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi,without SOAP API , how exchange data with other system?Is Quantity Discount only for a group?Is there a Prestashop Showcase of a big shop site?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 You can't exchange data with another system in real time. The only thing you can do is import a CSV file of data.The quantity discount is per-product, not per-group. There is an option to give a percentage discount to a customer group.Yes, there is a showcase of PrestaShop sites here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
