Great for e-commerce!
Comments: Open Cart requires a little bit of knowledge of setting up an e-commerce store, but the documentation is very easy to go through, you can have a fully functional store up and running in a couple of hours.
Does the job, but difficult to setup and use.

Pros: I really liked the availability of themes and templates. There were quite a few options out there in quite a few colors. OpenCart also had quite a few ways of collecting payments from customers.
Cons: Though there were quite a few payment options, Square and Paypal were fairly difficult to set up. I had to reference quite a few different YouTube videos on the subject before I could figure out how to set it up. I'm still having difficulty as writing this review.
Pros: OpenCart is well supported in the community. There are 1000s of extensions some good some bad, but there are some great developers who always have great products. It helps to have some web experience to know what to look for, like database indexing for large sites. So far the system has performed well.
Cons: Having to use extensions to make additions to common items like static page creation or menu system customization. Would like to see this more like the CMS systems of Joomla.
