Just like any other e-commerce platform it is easy to install and simplicity in terms of use. Just order and pay kind of system. User or admin doesn't have to worried much about it. Again it is in Javascript so not much coding efforts for intermediate developer As it is simple solution you might not have to spend much amount of APIs and templates to configure and use which is one more plus point of it.

It would be great if it was opensource but it is not. That is one of the drawback. Also it is bit difficult to handle backend with API . One more drawback is security as it is developed in Javascript. Definitely it is not for beginners. It is bit hard to get proper documentation of this system and support as well.

The simplicity and the fact that it was very easy to set up and integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The fact that it's written in Javascript makes it not very secure. While I can create a nice and elegant ecommerce platform, someone with a bit of front end know-how and skill could technically checkout with a shopping cart full of items for $0. Unfortunately, this was a dealbreaker for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I enjoy the level of decoupling from anything backend, and just the general versatility afforded by the fact that it's in JavaScript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish it was open source (if it is, I somehow didn't catch it from the website when I used it, so that might be worth clarifying) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Simplicity.. It's very easy to create a scope of an ordered products, display and manipulate with it. Like many others, I love to have system under control, minimize third party extension income and create best experience for the user. Web/App user doesn't need to know what is under the hood, he just want to use it, make an order and pay it. If SimpleCart is applied in the right way, it can fulfil all the requirements which are now stored in the more heavier and compex e-commerce systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Awful documentation ;). Sometimes is very hard to understand all the functions and parameters for the beginners. Also, simpleCart does not solve everything alone, but it must be always use with some backend to save, store, e-mail data. There could be a good activity to fill some documentation topics about it.

Ease of configuration and flexibility. Setting it up was really easy and quick (I only use the paypal functionality) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The online documentation is not very easy to follow, although I hardly needed to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
