WBSP459: Grow Your Business by Understanding osCommerce’s Capabilities, an Objective Panel Discussion
Description
The ecommerce shop owners are likely to be lured by the idea of open source. But once you start managing your store on an eCommerce platform, you might spend more time with technical issues than selling. osCommerce is one such platform that is often among the popular open-source cart options and has been installed on thousands of sites. Also, there was a time when osCommmerce was an OK option because the other options were equally outdated. But not anymore. And definitely not in 2023.
In today's episode, we are going to review osCommerce’s capabilities independently. We covered many grounds, including why estimating the cost for open source may be harder than commercial options. We also discussed how evaluating software purely based on functional capabilities is likely to fire back. Finally, we discussed why speed, security, and SEO are perhaps the most important factors for a commerce solution.
