Shopify Vs BigCommerce Vs Magento Vs NetSuite- Ecommerce Review

The Goods on the best shopping cart:

I know you are all here for one primary reason: to find out what the best shopping cart is!  Well without further delay, here is the list as it stands now:

  1. BigCommerce – Extremely easy setup, full design customization, rapid dev, best SEO, great support in Austin
  2. Magento CE – Fully programming access, stable core, good plugins
  3. Shopify – Overpriced, lesser version of BigCommerce

The same three crappy commercials repeated over and over. I watched those three commercials so often I now hate everything about the companies that ran them. Halftime show was two no-names saying obvious remarks “in the belly of Lucas Field”. Really poorly done. Shockingly bad considering this is the biggest television event of the year.
