Victory Goes For VirtueMart

Most of our consumers asked what are the advantages of choosing VirtueMart over osCommerce cs (CRE Loaded, Zen Cart, osCMax) and Magento. Well, here are what we think:

  1. osCommerce cs state that they have a whole lot of web theme designs accessible to choose from. Well, it's still to some degree a fact. That is why we are here so that as a minimum VirtueMart also has some template patterns to pick from either.
  2. Support multi languages. Whilst osCommerce, Zen Cart, CRE Loaded and osCMax only support 3 languages (German, Spanish, English), Magento also supports 3 languages (German, French, English), VirtueMart along with Joomla at present supportover 60 language and they are even now developing for other languages world wide.
  3. SEF and SEO are more advanced and free, more than ever with sh404SEF. We found it much better than osCommerce paid SEO scripts. osCommerce cs are very limited in meta tags optimization whilst Joomla has a lot of plug-ins that can easily maximize your meta tags optimization.
  4. Compatible with PHP 5 and MySQL 5 for much better performance and security. If you are developing a new web shop, you would better produce with the one that is compatible with PHP 5 and MySQL 5 because PHP 4 and MySQL 4 is certainly going to be outdated quickly. osCommerce, Zen Cart, CRE Loaded and osCMax are not compatible with PHP 5 and MySQL 5.
  5. Flexibility is very high when it comes to design and layout. You could place any type of module (cart module, manufacturer module, currency module, search module, flash module, image slideshow module, accordion, sliding, fading, application in module, module in application, etc) to any position you prefer. You can place a header on footer, footer on header, cart over header, header over cart, sliding, fading, tabs, etc. Location is confined only by your imagination and imagination.
  6. Integrated with Joomla CMS, means you could possess a shopping cart combined with any other non-cart elements for example user forum, news portal, social networking, blogs, any kind of subscription service, ads management, auction site, event management, calendar, image gallery, image slideshow, flash gallery, flash slideshow, virtual classroom, real estate property, hotel reservation, stock market, event registration, wikipedia, etc.
  7. There are still lots of of space for improvements. While osCommerce cs already reached the stalemate or maturity stage and little room for further improvements, VirtueMart still has plenty of room for upgrades.
  8. Caching technique is far better with Joomla standard cache or various other Joomla cache extensions.
  9. Cart features are excellent: Multi vendor, product attributes, product specials, unlimited products and types, various product categories, manageable user fields, edit order, selling downloadable files, complete payment and shipping modules including Google checkout or create your owns, confirmation email, transfer to Quickbooks, catalog or cart, different price per customer, etc etc.
  10. You can create content as much as you would like. A information can be an post with animated javascript and pictures, or a element inside an article, or a module inside an article, or a static HTML pages, or dynamic HTML pages, or a flash in article, etc etc.
  11. Security is more superior. Unlike osCommerce cs that continue to use the old crack dangerous register_global ON.
