Out of the Box Online Shopping Cart

I am a big fan of open source solutions.  I like the way they are constantly updated and improved by multiple people – giving the product a broader base of both support and content.  However, open source software can be a bit dicy when in the hands of someone who isn’t familiar with trouble shooting.

Although I’ve never used this particular solution myself it has come highly recommended by a couple of friends and has received kudos at the Warrior Forum as well.  If you are opening a new online store, require a shopping cart and can’t quite yet afford a hosted and supported model then this was made just for you.

osCommerce has quite a few features that allow stores to be set up quickly and easily – even for techno-newbs like myself.  You can check out the software at osCommerce.com – participate in the forums, read through the information and check it out for yourself.

Be sure to come back and let me know what you think.
