BestShoppingCartReviews.com Announces Top 3 Shopping Carts for 2014
St. George, UT (PRWEB) January 20, 2014 -- BestShoppingCartReviews.com is excited to reveal their picks for the top 3 shopping cart providers in 2014. Shopping cart software is an essential element for businesses that are selling products online. Most people are familiar with what a virtual shopping cart is and how it works. Large e-tailers, like Amazon and most big retail stores that have an web presence, use shopping cart software. A shopping cart allows customers to add items to their basket and then continue shopping. When they have selected all the items they wish to purchase they can go to checkout where they will see a list of all the items in the cart. Some shopping cart software programs allow customers to change the quantity of each item, add, or remove items, or even save an item for later.
What most people don’t realize is that there are many choices for shopping cart software and deciding which to use can be a difficult choice for many business owners. Some carts are limited by the number of products, images, use of coupons, and of course disk space and bandwidth, if using a hosted solution. Hosted vs. non-hosted is an indicator as to whether the web hosting and related features are included or not. Many web hosting providers include shopping cart software, at no charge, that can be installed on a website from the web hosting control panel. “There are many options for shopping cart software; the best shopping cart for each individual depends on the type of website and their specific needs. We have chosen our top 3 shopping cart recommendations to help visitors find the software that is best for their individual needs,” Nate W. of BestShoppingCartReviews.com said.
The number three pick is PinnacleCart. “We chose PinnacleCart as our third pick in the top 3 shopping cart providers because of the many options they have available for business owners,” Nate continued. PinnacleCart offers hosted solutions and enterprise solutions. There are 4 hosted shopping carts to choose from, starting at just $30 per month. This plan has US based support and allows up to 150 products. There is a setup fee of $49 but the larger plans waive the setup fee. PinnacleCart offers a 14 day trial before any purchase, is easy to setup, and “includes a website, mobile store, and Facebook storefront, all in one,” according to the PinnacleCart website. Reading a PinnacleCart review can give potential customers some great insight as to what current customers are saying about the software.
“Our second choice is BigCommerce, this well-known shopping cart service provider offers a lot of extras by way of apps, marketing, and analytics,” Nate said. BigCommerce offers 15 days at no cost and has five plans to choose from, as well as enterprise solutions for larger corporations. Customers can choose to pay monthly or save 10% by choosing annual billing. Reading a BigCommerce review or two can help potential customers understand the pros and cons of the service from businesses that are already using it.
The number one shopping cart service provider for 2014 is Volusion. “We chose Volusion because they offer everything the other two do, and more! Volusion shopping carts feature professional templates, thousands of built-in features, the best security, unlimited support 24/7, and includes everything: the store, the website, and the web hosting all for one package price,” Nate said assuredly. The Volusion Mini plan starts out at only $15 per month and includes unlimited storage, social media tools, mobile commerce, a Facebook Store, no transaction fees, up to 100 products, and much, much more. The Volusion review on BestShoppingCartReviews.com covers some of the extras.
“Any of the three: Volusion, BigCommerce, or PinnacleCart, will meet the needs of most businesses but we encourage people to visit our site and check out some reviews, shopping cart comparisons, and some of the articles so that they are confident they are getting the best shopping cart software to meet their needs,” Nate explained.
