Very easy to host and start. Can manage multi stores and even can use as a Market place. ----- ### "Seamless Integration and Ease of access" — 4.0/5 > **Akhilesh** | *12 June 2020* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a first-time user, the nopCommerce guide and ease of use have helped in seamless integration with our existing services, and the tools such as SEO and Multi-Vendor, etc has been very beneficial. > > **Cons**: The User Interface at some pages should be clutter-free apart from that there have been no problems. > > Easy to implement, integrate and a seamless transition has helped me a lot and with tools for SEO and multi-vendor capabilities are top-notch. Highly recommended\! ----- ### "The Best DotNet Shopping Cart Software For Your Money\!" — 5.0/5 > **Robert** | *30 March 2020* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 1. Value: For companies that need to make major customizations to an eCommerce software to fit their business needs, NopCommerce is hands down the best option. 2. DotNet/MS SQL Server: No other comparable open source platforms out there for DotNet/MS SQL Server 3. Active Core Team and Dev Community > > **Cons**: 1. Performance: We are on an older version of the software (3.8), and are satisfied with the Performance, but definitely not blown away by it. I know the nop team has been working on it diligently since our version and I'm excited to see what upgrading to the latest release (4.2) will do for us in terms of page load speeds. 2. Plugins: (a) It is difficult to know the quality of the plugins until installing. (b) many of the plugins are not open source, so we generally can't use them because we don't want to introduce inflexible dependencies for our major customizations. > > We are a weekly, subscription based home delivery service. Therefore, there are no "out of the box" options out there that fully meet our business needs. The out the box NopCommerce solution met 75% our of requirements. More importantly, its open source flexibility allowed us to meet the other 25% using all internal resources and just one outside NopCommerce developer consultant/expert. ----- ### "plugin with 3rd party" — 2.0/5 > **Yahya** | *14 December 2020* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: .net technology with mvc .core easy work with plugin and modified the current > > **Cons**: i find very little partner interested in developing and supporting > > create special plugin from nopcommerce for marketing 3rd party like merchant google tag and others sales reports ----- ### "I'm not saying it's the best (which of course it is), but it's one of the best and most powerful open source cms in the world." — 5.0/5 > **Hamid** | *14 December 2023* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Open source Clean and readable code Based on design pattern Ease of learning it Pluggable Free Keep up with modern technology Together with Microsoft Support for a wide variety of databases Can be used on mobile phones > > **Cons**: If I want to talk about the disadvantages, I have to say that it is heavy and requires very strong hardware resources, as well as the time-consuming compilation of plugins. > > About 6 or 7 years ago, I got to know nopCommerce through a very interested person. There were not many resources to learn it. Previously, I was able to enter this field through the question and answer forum of nopCommerce and seeing the questions and answers of others.
