Are there any good e-commerce extensions/plugins for Umbraco?

Question

I'm working on a project that will use Umbraco for CMS capability, but also has a fairly simple ecommerce requirement. I'm aware of Commerce4Umbraco, are there others? Or, should I look elsewhere for simple e-commerce functionality. Would be nice to use the same platform for CMS and e-commerce... stuck with Umbraco though.

Answer 1

Hi,

The only other package I'm aware of is umbraco commerce

It doesnt look like it's been updated in a while and Commerce4Umbraco is nearing first release so is probaby a better bet.

I know that it will be featured at the Codegarden09 umbraco conference.

As Umbraco is .NET based you could also use an off the shelf shopping cart, such as dotNetCart or develop sometihing bespoke. Of course this would mean separate backends, but again you could easily fudge it into the backend end if required.

Answer 2

uCommerce is a fully integrated e-commerce package for Umbraco 4.0. You can see a full feature list at the uCommerce website.

It free to use for developers and you can download a copy from our website. .

Answer 3

What's the difference between uCommerce and Commerce4Umbraco?

Answer 4

uCommerce is commercial and Commerce4Umbraco is open source.
