I'm looking for an e-commerce "platform" in Java or .NET that can satisfy the following requirements:

  • Product / Service Management
  • Customer Account Management
  • Shopping Cart
  • Checkout / Merchant Integration
  • Localization (especially for currency)
  • Coupons
  • Multiple Storefronts
  • Reporting
  • Possible PayPal / Google Checkout Integration

The goal here is to integrate this with a RIA written in Adobe Flex. We are comfortable with writing a thin backend layer to support the Flex app, so the solution doesn't require a remotely-accessible API, rather just one that we can invoke from our own backend code.

I tested and trust those (.Net):

Both platforms good for what you are looking.

Decision is based on personal preferences and which platform you have experience.

We have deep experience with both. I'm looking for a particular pre-built solution to satisfy these requirements. Obviously either can be used to build the app from scratch. My personal preference doesn't enter into this in any way nor should it.

I used ofbiz for some projects, a joyful experience. It's now under the apache umbrella: http://ofbiz.apache.org/

From the website:

The Apache Open For Business Project is an open source enterprise automation software project licensed under the Apache License Version 2.0. By open source enterprise automation we mean: Open Source ERP, Open Source CRM, Open Source E-Business / E-Commerce, Open Source SCM, Open Source MRP, Open Source CMMS/EAM, and so on

I used it to build an ecommerce application to sell customized products to consumers. I used the webshop part, the production planning and warehouse management.

Beware that it takes some time to dig into this huge framework but depending on your actual needs it will be worth it. There is also decent commercial support by a lot of service providers.

The Beerhouse (OS) for .NET might be worth a look. It's an ASP.NET starter kit, however there is also a paypal commerce kit that accompanies it. I'm not sure about coupons and flex integration however.

All the kits can be found here.

SoftSlate Commerce meets nearly all of those requirements (with the exception of multiple storefronts, but you could run separate instances side by side). Full Java source code comes with the $495 Standard Edition license.

Websphere Commerce Supports almost all of your requirements(except paypal integration).
