## Reviews

### "Best PHP shopping cart I have used" — 5.0/5

> **Aubrey** | *6 June 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software's default theme fit our business nicely so I had to do very little customising, the features included without needing to use plugins are more than most shopping carts I have used in the past (I have tried all PHP based systems).
> 
> **Cons**: Not the software's fault but not many plugins are available, I guess due to not being so popular yet, other than that I can't think of any downsides.
> 
> This software is easy to use and works very well, we have been using it for over two years and have never encountered any problem with it, there have been no security breaches since using this software whereas our previous shopping cart system had.

### "A good option for advanced users" — 4.0/5

> **Kyle** | *19 July 2018* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: You can use AbanteCart for any type of store, and can fully customize it with a great collection of modules and themes.&#10;The best experience you can have with this software is that you can host it anywhere, being a not that resource hungry software.&#10;It has a clean an easy dashboard for administrators, and you can edit all the settings easily
> 
> **Cons**: The software is free, but the modules can rack up, if you try to build a good and very up to date ecommerce solution for your customers.

### "Good But Needs Small Changes" — 3.0/5

> **David** | *16 September 2015*
> 
> AbanteCart is good software on which to build a online store. I do enjoy it, however i find that it has a few minor weaknesses that need to be taken into consideration. With the constant changing economy and the currencies fluctuating in their exchange values regularly, there needs to be a more automated way to update the currencies from a central server. This way admins don't have to log in every 15 mins to consistently change this detail to avoid losses.  A few free templates to assist users in having options in making their store look good is always good. AbanteCart has a block that provides the user with an option to say thank you to abantecart to advertise their product as well.

### "Beautiful experience." — 5.0/5

> **Erick** | *23 May 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a web developer, I was able to create an extension payment for one of our customers in no time. AbanteCart is very easy to extend. I was surprised how easy was to create my own extension payment.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of documentation. Basically, I had to check other created extension payments in order to build mine.
> 
> Free, easy to install and easy to use.

### "My budget was too low - Thank God I've found Abante Cart" — 5.0/5

> **Syed** | *28 April 2018* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm using the free version, and it seems it has everything even for its free users... You have a big heart. I hope it will continue and you are not going to cut anything for us. Second the best part of this wonderful utility is it's admin interface. Very easy to use and human friendly. I give you a five start without any hesitation.
> 
> **Cons**: Some difficulty I have faced in user management specially when disabling and deleting users. But overall it's a fantastic tool.
> 
> I have my own online store. What a dream come true :)
