Magento, a new professional open-source eCommerce solution
A new open-source ecommere shopping cart software, Magento is a great PHP and Mysql shopping cart script, it has conprehensive functions for helping you create an ecommerce website easily.
Some really nice features sush as single page checkout, Search engine optimization (SEO), ship to multiple address, Paypal and Google Checkout, advance marketing tool, great back-end system, product comparison and much more.
You can download magento for free or just try the demo.
We´re testing Magento for more than a half year. The developers made huge efforts and with the release of version 1.0 we´re developing our first magento-shop. The tool is well designed and full of state-of-the-art features. I´m absolutely sure, that Magento will be the benchmark in open source shops in the near future. The other positive thing is, that bugfixing is very fast and the developers are open minded for feedback and improvements. I believe that this is one of the reasons why Magento has build such a community in only a few month… great jobs guys!
