Platform Review: Loaded Commerce 6.5

Online businesses - both big and small - often need to deploy their products or services using an e-commerce platform in order to manage various online transactions. E-commerce platforms, however, vary considerably in terms of available features even when they share the same core functionalities. This often makes the process of choosing the most appropriate one for your online store somewhat complicated.

To avoid getting stuck in confused indecision, the first trick in the e-commerce textbook is to know your product really well. This is because the type of product a business sells almost always dictates the type of e-commerce platform that the business should implement. There are many free-to-download platforms that offer a more or less comprehensive range of features and you might want to test some if you are just starting out your business (or are unhappy about your current e-commerce platform).

Time to Get Serious About Your Online Store?

Are you ready to get serious about developing or upgrading your online store or e-commerce site? While there are many shopping cart and e-store CMS platforms out there such as oscommerce, zen cart, creLoaded, etc., it has been my experience that none can hold a candle to the power and flexibility of Magento.As some of you may know, I develop ecommerce stores as my primary source of income. (See this section for more info about me) When I first started out, I used several of the popular open source shopping cart systems such as zencart and oscommerce. They were easy to install with most web hosts having 1-click install options and their usage was fairly easy to grasp. And like all cart platforms, they made use of templates for their design so changing the look of your site was fast as well.

How do I charge a new TAX? 
You may create and charge for as many taxes as you need to in order to comply with the law as it applies in your locale. The osCommerce tax system depends upon 5 things. Basic geographical Country definitions which define countries and states geographically, Zone definitions which define relationships between political areas, Tax Zone definitions which define the area legally affected by a tax, Tax CLASS definitions which define classes of goods which may be taxed in different ways, and Tax RATES which define the tax itself.

Zen Cart vs. CRE Loaded

One of the e-commerce software available in the market is the CRE Loaded, like most there are 3 versions of this that can be used for any virtual store fronts. The Free version is the regular kind easy to install and better to get the hang of for simple purchase-sale transactions. The PRO CRE Loaded includes product attribute support with credit card encryption thrown in. The 3rd version is the B2B wich allows the store-front to have separate pricing level support which makes tracking down sales more organized.

CRE Loaded - The Shopping Cart Software

CRE Loaded is free, open-source software derived from osCommerce. What it did was it made use of osCommerce as its foundation and then utilized features that are way beyond osCommerce's reach. Trying out CRE Loaded guarantees a win-win situation. You try it for free, and if you like it, there are paid and upgraded versions that you can always try after. On the other hand, if you are not satisfied, you won't lose anything.
