Big Cartel LLC
It's well suited for simple e-commerce and basic inventory management needs.

Mergado
I think MERGADO is ideal for e-shop owners. It can communicate in multiple languages, making it useful for international teams as well. I can imagine its applicability even when working concurrently with web programmers. In my experience, working in MERGADO requires at least some level of technical thinking and imagination. It won't tell you what to do; you need to have a goal, and MERGADO is simply a tool to help you achieve it.

  • Some functions are more hidden
  • For certain modifications, you need to take more steps
  • MERGADO includes additional applications that you activate separately, although it would be great if I could enable their functions directly while editing the XML feed

Return on Investment
Big Cartel LLC
  • The basic plan at $10/month easily saves us that in time from having to manage our own e-commerce system on our own site.
