For quickly setting up a most intuitive online marketplace, CS-Cart Multi-Vendor is the best one. The software is very well suited for those who have some basic knowledge about backend customization, installation, server setup, proper server configuration etc. Though I'm sure the support team will get you up and running. Only few third-party service providers are very professional, provide honest service and will help you to run your business smoothly. I would highly recommend to use CS-Cart Multi-Vendor.

Going live with our first Kooomo shop has been a success. Having tried several other e-commerce platforms through the years it has been a great experience to go live in a very short time to market without any bugs or problems. The SAAS model has proved to be the best suited for us and Kooomo in particular, has met all our expectations.

  • The software comes as a Saas solution so you donā€™t have the access to the platform core but you have the capability to handle your content output with their integrated CMS.

Usability
CS-Cart
The software consists of most of all e-commerce related features. Also, there are plenty of third party addons are available in the market which can improve our business. There are a lot of powerful themes available in the cs cart market which improve the look and feel on the front store. If CS-cart adjusted the price on their software license cost, controlling the third party addon cost and provide more freelancers with cheaper hourly rate for the customization on the cs-cart multi vendor software, the cs-cart company can be a master among other e-commerce software companies in the world.
