Kooomo vs. TrueCommerce

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.

If you want to sell online and need a platform, you should select Nexternal. If it is within your budget and you want to have success, Nexternal is the way to go. Since switching to Nexternal from Kreck, our online sales have more than tripled!

• Integration with the marketplaces: in Kooomo you can manage the products not only eCommerce, but also on Amazon and eBay

• Page layout.
• Processing purchases.
• Ease of creation.

• The software comes as a Saas solution so you don’t have the access to the platform core but you have the capability to handle your content output with their integrated CMS.

• Nexternal is hosted solution which means much of the source code is protected and inaccessible. For clients looking to fully customize the user experience, there are some limitations, with any hosted solution, that must be considered.
• Nexternal doesn't have a built in wish list feature. They did partner with a 3rd party vendor, and now offer the base functionality; however, for clients whose needs center on the capabilities of a wish list, this feature must be closely considered.
• Nexternal's monthly fees are structured in such a way that they scale based on sales. This can be an affordable set up for a majority, but a deterrent for others. That said, the phrase 'you get what you pay for' rings true for ecommerce platforms as well. As I've mentioned perhaps too many times already, the level of reliable support combined with the user-friendly, secure platform are worth it.

I no longer work in a company that would utilize it.

I love the control and attention to detail that this system has. Don't be intimidated by it. Keep playing with it, ask questions, and get to know the program. You will grow to absolutely love and understand it.

We've worked with ecommerce providers for over 12 years, and we have yet to find another solution that provides the same level of responsiveness and accessibility as Nexternal's account representatives.

I had help from start to finish. Doreen, my rep, was very patient, concise, clear, and she has always had the answers I need. Setting up your store is time consuming at first, but with the support system that Nexternal offers, it is painless.

When we started with Nexternal, there were not as many options as there are today. We felt the platform was one that we could work with and had a great customer support contact that helped us during the creation of our site.

• Using Kooomo has enabled us to focus on the added value areas and forget about time-consuming areas such as performance, bugs, and software updates.

• Decreased efficiency in terms of how long it takes to enter order.
• Very quick with reporting which was great for meetings and customer service calls.
• Inefficient in terms of shipping abilities.
