Getting set up with 1ShoppingCart wasn't that complicated for even us basic internet users. All of the product management features were mostly simple to use. There are also advanced design features we can use to make the shopping cart design and functions work more specifically to fit our website. It's nice that we can get email notifications whenever we receive new orders. We can stay in top of orders in an automated way and make sure orders get fulfilled promptly.

We sometimes have mass items to add and would like to get them to import neatly and properly formatted without having to make too many individual configurations. Though we can add multiple items at once, I found it difficult to be able to set up each item exactly the way with want without having to go into each item to make certain settings.

I like that 1ShoppingCart works mostly as an all-in-one type of solution that can manage the shopping cart design and payment processing. Many payment processors often have limited shopping cart offerings and have to be used with a separate shopping cart platform. The order management tools in 1ShoppingCart are very thorough. We can customize lots of different aspects of the shopping and checkout process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Working with the HTML custom features isn't the most user friendly environment, especially for users with little to no coding experience. I would like to see more templates and layout structures that can better fit mobile screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think that it's simple to build shopping carts right after signing up and using the website for the first time. It's pretty easy to get the cart to work with several different payment processors. Since the design of the default shopping cart in 1ShoppingCart is somewhat neutral, it often works well to use with just about any website design we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the options are not as extensive as we need them to be. There aren't that many programming options to get the product options to appear the way that we want them to. In order to eliminate some of the features that appear in the shopping cart, we sometimes have to use CSS, which takes a little bit more knowledge than many of our users have to execute properly.

When I first started researching shopping cart solutions several years ago, 1ShoppingCart was a product that I often came across. I like that 1ShoppingCart has been around for many years and is still a stable shopping cart solution used by many reputable companies. Setting up 1ShoppingCart was a mostly smooth process from the point of getting our payment processing account to actually posting items into our shopping cart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think that the 1ShoppingCart default design is not really the most well-suited design for mobile devices. I believe that 1ShoppingCart could do a better job at allowing for layout options that are more ideal for mobile screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the many features that 1ShoppingCart has, which allow users like me to set up their online stores and full checkout experience a certain way. We can't customize every single thing with the standard tools, but there are options to enter HTML and CSS, which is great since we can just copy and paste certain lines of code from our website to help match the look of the header and footer. The checkout process on the purchaser's end is easy for most to use with common steps of entering credit card and address information. The confirmation page is easy to create and can also be customized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some cart and product options that are somewhat limited. When trying to add options for packages that include many types of items, it can be a bit cluttered to try and enter the information the way that is standard for product input on 1ShoppingCart. Even when we enter all the information the look of the shopping cart can be a bit awkward and cluttered on the user's side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think that the account management features are probably among the most straightforward in 1ShoppingCart. 1ShoppingCart can do everything that most people would expect when they go to a shopping cart. For instance, providing different options for products and having brief and full descriptions for their products or services. We can connect all of the major types of payment processing methods such as credit cards, debit cards and payment platforms such as Authorize.net, Stripe and PayPal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The general design of the default shopping cart is a little bit older looking compared to many of the newer website builders and online store networks I see out there today. To customize the header and footer is somewhat on the complicated side since we have to add code generated from HTML. I don't think many users will immediately understand how to get that done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the balance that 1ShoppingCart has between being a cart that's simple to use and also having many custom options and settings. The options tab has quick ways for us to tailor the look and user experience to our needs. For certain items, we like to have a 1-step checkout to make it easier for the purchaser, and 1ShoppingCart gives us that option along with a 2-step checkout for updating quantities. When I began using 1ShoppingCart, I didn't really have to read through much to know what certain things were for. It's an intuitive system on the whole. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some parts of the set up process were confusing. We had to get a separate payment account with another company that connects with our 1ShoppingCart account. The other company also had their own payment buttons, which we actually used for some products because we could get them to work properly with the 1ShoppingCart cart right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The basic tools in 1ShoppingCart are simple enough for an ordinary person with little to no technical skills to use. The control panel is designed in a way that makes it straightforward to use. 1ShoppingCart does provide extensive instructions and other support materials, but the basic controls are mostly self-explanatory. The shopping cart, by default, has most of the features that one would expect to see in shopping carts these days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Signing up with the payment processor and getting everything connected can be confusing. I thought we would just sign up through 1ShoppingCart with our basic contact and banking details and be good to go, but the process was much more extensive than that. We had to get approved for a merchant account and then go through a few confusing steps to make it work with the 1ShoppingCart account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Setting up and managing products with 1ShoppingCart is relatively simple on a basic level. It has the capabilities to allow for custom layouts and product details. When I saw the product page for the first time, I was amazed at how much information we could add. The shopping cart itself allows for code injection that helps to match the look of the cart to the main website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the custom options require HTML programming that isn't the most straightforward to execute. Even for advanced web developers, it can be confusing to extract the right code from your website to add to 1ShoppingCart, especially when it comes to dynamic pages such as those from CMS applications like Drupal or Joomla. Also, the default style and functionality of 1ShoppingCart's cart sits on the old-fashioned side of the shopping cart market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Aside from its reliable shopping cart features, 1ShoppingCart has a wide variety of marketing tools that allow us to register customers for things such as newsletters, events and promotions. Signing up and getting started with 1ShoppingCart was relatively easy. We didn't need any advanced programming knowledge to get it embedded in our existing marketing system. Payments are generally handled smoothly without error. 1ShoppingCart has many fields and options for us to customize the functionality of cart the details of the included products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Though the basic setup and functionality is essentially straightforward, some the customization processes are a bit complicated. There are sections that require us to enter code in order to adjust the look of that section. Learning the code and understanding how to apply it to 1ShoppingCart's custom fields properly can take a great deal of time to learn and I feel makes the appearance of the cart more prone to errors.

The fact they they had unique affiliated links. Make it flexible when giving links to affiliate for specific campaigns. Their phone customer service is actually bad ass but they need it due to the old software again. So many parts are unintuitive so you need a human to walk you through it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The UI is OLD like late 1990's AOL old!
You can tell they barely upkeep the program as a lot of search functions are like an antiquated excel based search.
If you want things in a different currency you need to pay for another account in each currency. Example Australian dollars.
The affiliate links that are generated are also flagged for spam in 3rd party email marketing platforms like Get Response and Get Response 360. So email providers like Yahoo and Gmail flag your emails as spam because of the links.
You get to keep a database of like 1,000 transactions otherwise they begin to charge you to keep it, and it gets expensive quick! So you have to keep downloading the last 1,000 transactions in an excel doc. Making it unrealistic to scale.
It will kill your productivity in the short and long term since the learning curve is a pain and then the program is extremely clunky to create automation/rules.
No real way to look at in-depth metrics in the software. You are better off downloading all the raw data and messing with it in excel for 0.5-1 hr. :/
It has a shopping cart capability in which if users click the "add to cart" buttons it will create a cookie so users can add multiple items
Users cannot create a account profile from you making drip or cart abandonment campaigns extremely difficult. We had to result in using other marketing platforms to fill in the gaps until we switch to a more comprehensive platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With it's minimum monthly fees it provides fairly good support and features like 24*7 support, few good templates. Also one good thing is it is available on all basic OS. Not to forget it is compatible with many of the plug ins .It is quite easy to use as of it's simplicity for experienced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no free support or wider forum that is major drawback. Also they were charging transaction fees earlier not sure about now. And it is not friendly for beginner due to complex design. It is not feasible to implement small scale business where your customers under 100. As we were targeting very specific set of customers it was bit costly for us. Also free template were limited as it is not widely used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much. They started off being a decent all-in-one solution (back in 2006 - TWELVE YEARS AGO), but haven't kept up with EVERYONE else in their space and their customer service. Now they just suck in almost every aspect relevant to being a shopping cart and CRM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most things don't work right. They overbill! They say MONTHLY but bill you every 4 weeks, so we're getting billed THIRTEEN (13) times a year, NOT MONTHLY. Customer service sucks. No one has EVER called me back and I can't remember the last time they upgraded anything to keep up with technology and integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that 1ShoppingCart has all the main features we need to sell physical and intangible products online. We can set product details and shopping cart options very precisely. There are several ways to add product choices like colors, sizes and styles. We can use check boxes or radio selections. The checkout process is generally very simple and straightforward for the customer. The payments are usually processed smoothly without any errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The layout and design of 1ShoppingCart is a big rigid and outdated. 1ShoppingCart has not seemed to evolve much over the last few years. Though we can customize certain things with CSS, we can't really change much overall. Unlike some other popular shopping carts out there nowadays, there aren't easy design tools that allow users to change design elements quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the extensive customization options that 1ShoppingCart's provides for the products. We can add check boxes and radio buttons to products so customers can easily select things like styles, event dates or other personal preferences. 1ShoppingCart also gives us the ability to change the design of the header and footer of our shopping carts, so we can better match the design with that of our originating website or landing page. For inventory tracking, 1ShoppingCart lets us add stock quantities to each item, which helps to alert us when inventory gets low and to limit the sale of products that are almost sold out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Though we can change certain designs to the header and footer of the shopping cart, we can't drastically change the overall design of our carts much. Also, the extent of the design changes depends a great deal on the user's knowledge of HTML and CSS code. There are no straightforward drag-and-drop type tools that allow us to design with a visual editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to incorporate a membership or subscription option is a very daunting task without 1shoppingcart. For most, it is, "where do I begin?". Well, start here. You can sell all types of products, digital and physical all alike. With the easy to use website, you will have a ready to go shop up in no time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The price is somewhat high compared to competitors, but I prefer this product due to the ease of use. Comparing this to Wix or AbanteCart, you can see that you may save some money, but the reason why is that you lose quite a few features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lots of functionality. Good help articles. Never had something we needed to do that it couldn't do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Looks outdated. Was hard to find things because it's not super intuitive. Sometimes went down for maintenance, but usually not for very long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1ShoppingCart gives you more control over your online web store that competitors don’t give you that control over. Most online customers do not need any further assistance with their experience thanks to 1ShoppingCart Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think if they lowered the price to $15 a month it would attract more clients. I previously used GoDaddy for my services and they were a bit cheaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very limited compared to other cart platforms. It can be very frustrating. It is also fairly outdated compared to newer platforms with better features and looks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best thing about this shopping cart has been the ability to have so many products and modify how they are offered in so many ways. The built-in affiliate program works great so people can easily benefit from joint venturing with my company at a level that suits them.The dashboard allows me to monitor every bit of my ecommerce activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The shipping section has been a challenge over the years. Since we only sell downloadable products from the website now, it has no longer been an issue. The broadcasting functions are less flexible than I like. The commission payment to me for 1shoppingcart affiliates is inconsistent. Not robust enough for membership program offers.

I like that it's a user-friendly platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm not a big fan of the overall aesthetic, it's a bit dated and boring. I also, don't like that when I'm doing multiple searches for individual contacts I have to reload the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
