OpenCart Review: Close to Free Open Source Platform for Experienced Developers

Joe Warnimont
In an age of subscription-based ecommerce platforms and website builders, sometimes it's nice to have a solution that's free. When you look at an open source option like OpenCart, that's exactly what you receive. It's open for free download, you're able to find your own hosting, and upgrade without any payments. The reason we like that so much is because many open source platforms try to get you with yearly upgrades.

On the other hand, you have "packaged" solutions like Shopify and BigCommerce, where you're paying a monthly fee without any real ownership of your website.

In this OpenCart review, we'll talk about the best features, along with those we don't like that much. In addition, we can dive into things like any additional fees and the customer support.

Shopify is easily one of the most powerful ecommerce and website-building tools in the world. Countless companies rely on this technology today. Even as countless competitors appear on the market, ranging from WooCommerce to Magento, Shopify stays ahead of the curve by constantly delivering new and improved features for users.
