what's a good CMS for e-commerce?

what's a good cms for web shops ? I've always used Drupal so far, but I haven't ever developed webshops. I saw there are Magento and a Drupal module Ubecart.

I actually would like to know a "kn开发者_StackOverflowown, easy to use webshop framework so I don't have to take care abuot security issues.. etc

thanks

I have been using both Magento (community edition) and Ubercart depending on client's target hosting preference. I must say that Magento has some impressive functionality and flexible as it has been around for a while. However there are some serious problems with this. Upgrading Magento to the latest version is a complete nightmare and have a good chance of needing to reinstall. Building your themes in Magento is so convoluted, it takes so many inheriting files to create a simple layout change. There is cummunity support, but most of them screaming for help as I remember. Magento model is "make money from support". So I found that they are not so quick to help on the forums.

With Ubercart it is refreshing to see the amount of active help. I think this is important if you are new this. If you are already familiar with Drupal, then I would say stick with Ubercart. It is much simpler to manage than Magento.

They are both good with application security, but you will need to setup your own SSL cert anyway. I've played with some other carts such as Zen and OS Cart, but found them inferior compared to Ubercart and Magento.

There are more than 500 of them. shopping-cart-reviews.com has a search by parameters feature, does a good job.

If I where you, I would compare open source packages like magento and ubercart against hosted ones like our own SolidShops.com.

Check out my blog post about magento (and open source ecommerce packages) versus hosted ones. I've outlined when to go best with open source / hosted depending on your situation.

We've built SolidShops.com specifically for web designers that need an easy and flexible platform for building small to medium sized stores. It's hosted so you won't have to install, update, secure, backup, ... a thing

Design is 100% flexible if you know html and css and it's a breeze to set up.
