Why pay more for less?

Lets momentarily put aside the fact that Magento Enterprise is built on ancient, bloated software with an agonizingly long learning curve and consider whats most important, the features you ARENT getting coupled with the high price tag you ARE paying for. Not only are you lacking any sort of advanced features to really excel your business with Magento Enterprise, but if you want to add these features your only option is to pay outside decentralized developers to do it and that of course isnt cheap.

Youd be essentially piecing together parts of your business from dozens of sources to attempt to make a whole business. Youll have to find a decent CRM, figure out omni-channel marketplace integration, look elsewhere for integrated analytics, add on social apps, pay expensive professional designers to customize your store to fit your branding, the list really never ends. So you really need to ask yourself, will it be worth the time and effort? If it doesnt pan out, how much money will you be losing if you cant get it to work right for your unique business?

So as you can see, Magento shopping cart is a less effective e-commerce solution compared to Shopping Cart Elite due to a number of reasons. It’s crucial to review them all once again to help you make the final decision:

• Magento shopping cart is built on old-school software which is hardly customizable for inexperienced users. In most cases, online business owners hire additional developers, to make Magento shopping cart look better. Do you need that?
• No easy integration with the top marketplaces that can increase your sales. It means that multi-channel selling won`t be accessible for you, and you will need to figure out omni-channel marketplace integration yourself. Of course, you can give up the idea of selling on Amazon and eBay, but it will mean less money for your business.
• Like an ancient dinosaur Magento shopping cart is really slow, especially if run on little servers. Shopping Cart Elite can boast 2 seconds page loading speed, and that is one of the key factors of attracting customers.
• Magento shopping cart is rather expensive taking into account its outdated software and lack of decent marketing solutions.
