PrestaShop

Hey guys,

 

What are your opinions on PrestaShop?

 

I was recently using PrestaShop for my business to put it online. It was quite user friendly and whenever I needed any help, I just googled the question and most of the questions were answered. However, when it came down to me exporting my products into a CSV file to update stock easily, they had plugins which cost £50+ which was a investment I didn't want to take as my business is still new and didn't want to take many risks. Most of their plugins are paid but the built-in free ones are really good and it was one of the best softwares I used.

Never used it.

 

Is it it's own CMS?

 

Is it free?

The main software is free but the addons cost a lot!

So is it like a shop-frontend type CMS or something? If one is using IPB wouldn't they be better off just using IP.Content and IP.Nexus to accomplish basically the same thing as Presta-shop given the add-ons for it are prcey? Would it be easily integratable into a 3rd party software like IP.Board or is it strictly a standalone piece of software?

I think it is a standalone software. AFAIK they don't have any other softwares which are possible to integrate into it.
