I’ve had the opportunity to play a bit with Magento over the last few days. It’s an Open Source shopping platform that is just awesome in the amount of features it offers. Everything you can think a shopping site would need has been included; features like cross-sells and upsells, customer reviews, custom promotions, stock management, configurable products, invoicing, everything.
The website I’m working on is The Ballet Shop, a website that came to life a few years ago based on some ASP/Access code I had developed. It ticked over nicely for a few years, but now needed a major overhaul. So rather than rebuilding it from scratch, I decided to investigate the open source option, and I’ve been blown away by this package. It works for any online shop you’d like to try, whether it’s a dance shop or a website focusing on Green shopping. If you decided to try and put your business online it comes very much recommended.
In the meantime, watch this space; I’ll let you know when the site launches.
