Likelihood to Recommend Cleverbridge is well-suited for big companies that have a client base and want to start online. If you have a wide range of products, and you sell worldwide--where different languages and different settings are needed for each region--then Cleverbridge is good solution. If you just want to start selling with limited stock and with couple of product types only in one region, then it's not good idea to begin with Cleverbridge.
Read full review OpenCart is best suited for business owners looking to sell their products online. Building an OpenCart website requires no or minimal coding knowledge. Being a self-hosted system, it is not recommended for people who have no hosting plan or have no experience in hosting websites so it would be better to go with another platform that is hosted elsewhere.
Read full review Pros Excellent partnet Terrific at subscription software Excellent security and uptime Read full review OpenCart is well suited in cases where our eCommerce web development clients want a very specific design with very specific shopping cart functionalities. OpenCart is very flexible in its native ability to work with a wide variety of payment processors and payment gateways. OpenCart makes it both fast and easy to setup and configure a new shopping cart website, especially if you use one of the pre-made templates. Read full review Cons Because of the many different settings, it becomes hard sometimes to set everything up The slow system can take up to 10 seconds to save something Read full review It's a very buggy platform. Although OpenCart developers release new versions time to time after fixing bugs every version of OpenCart has a different type of bug. It should increase the security of the platform. Read full review Usability Usability is native, but the system is complex. It has a knowledge base, but who reads that, right? So without explanation, sometimes it's hard to understand how to move and set things. But as soon as you get it, it's not a problem anymore. There are 2 major things, which keeps me from giving a higher score: 1 - Delay in time when making changes; can take up to 2 sec when opening a product, and 10 secs when saving a product update. When you do several updates, it is time consuming; 2 - A lot of settings, which also in the end becomes time consuming.

Read full review Honestly, when consulting my clients, I would always recommend
WooCommerce over OpenCart. Although I've had clients that had existing OpenCart websites and they were fairly happy with them, making additions/changes/customizations from a developer standpoint was not the easiest compared to other systems. For very large shops, I always recommend Magento over anything else.
