Have you checked out Magento? It is a little high end but well worth the investment. InteractOne has just become enterprise partners with Magento (shows how much confidence we have in the system) see http://www.interactone.com/web-design/ecommerce/magento/

Thanks very much for the feedback, Sahar. I didn’t realize that that 1shoppingcart had this important shortcoming.

1ShoppingCart would be a fabulous system if it was accessible to screen readers. I started out very happy with it, and then, they got their fabulous java-driven menus that I can’t access with my screen reader. Now, I have to figure out a different solution since I can’t access many of the options without a sighted person looking at my screen. Screen readers are used by blind people to access the Internet. The new update that 1ShoppingCart made to their program about three years ago or so made it very difficult to use for a blind person.

Yes, I agree, Ben, a great solution for those who can afford it! Many retailers I work with want something ready to go ‘right out of the box.’

What about bespoke solutions? Off the shelf packages are fine but they only go so far. Most serious retailers end up needed adaptations at the very least.

Actually, I think you may have an error in your article.

I’ve checked into it, and I don’t think “EcommerceThemes” have and integrated shopping cart. You’ll still need to have an outside shopping cart system such as e-junkie or Paypal for it. When a customer adds an item, they will leave the website to add it to their cart.

The Market theme does have its own built-in shopping system however.

Good article.
