| Open Source Ecommerce Platforms |
Open-source e-commerce softwares provide entire web store application or part of a web store like
shopping cart. These softwares have features such as shopping cart
functionality and product catalogs that enable store owners to set up, run and
maintain online stores. Typically, Open-source
e-commerce softwares are available for free, however, other fees may exist for
varying types of memberships. Small size companies where transaction
volumes are low adopt open-source software and it has been a mainstream
activity for almost more than five years. But many large enterprises are wary
of adopting open-source e-commerce for large-scale and midsize e-commercesites, because of concerns over reliability in supporting large transaction
volumes. Scalability and security are the major bottleneck for large-scale
transactional sites.
