Non lo riuserei

Pros

Usato per la gestione di e-commerce ed integrazione con CMS ma non è stato proprio semplicissimo

Cons

Non è sicuramente per utenti alle prime armi. La gestione dell'inventario e delle unità non è al top

Virtuemart tutto sommato fa egregiamente il suo dovere, come per ogni altro gestionale il consiglio è di inserire più dati possibili all'interno degli articoli, produttori, negozio ecc. per fornire al frontend un esperienza utente di tutto rispetto. Laborioso all'inizio, ma il risultato è garantito

Pros

Il vantaggio principale è quello di avere un e-commerce completo ed autonomo a costo zero, funziona perfettamente, non si pianta, risponde bene e soprattutto ha tutte le funzioni già attive senza pagare altre spese.

Cons

Sebbene tutto è già sbloccato le estensioni son tutte a pagamento, soprattutto i temi. Di default funziona, ma è bruttino, se lo volete bello bisogna spenderci un po' su.

Reasons for choosing VirtueMart

Ho preferito Virtuemart perche ha davvero tutte le funzioni che servono ad un negozio, non manca nulla

Virtue Mart fue la primera plataforma ecommerce con la que he trabajado. Completamente funcional y profesional para webs basadas en Joomla.

Pros

Es una plataforma simple y fácil de usar, con funciones avanzadas y excelentes prestaciones a través de plugins y extensiones.

Cons

Algunas extensiones son de pago y sufre de limitaciones por ser una plataforma ecommerce basada en Joomla, que es un cms algo lento y desactualizado.
