I would also appreciate more detailed roadmap to be published, so I would know if it make sense to purchase/ask to develop some functionality as an addon, or I shall wait till it become available as built-in feature. Customer support sometimes is overloaded and cannot provide a quick answer. > > CS-Cart Multi-Vendor, in my opinion, is mature platform to start with a marketplace within very short timeframe. It has enough features bundled to start your operations, and if you face you are missing something - there are different options to get them without great investments. The most important for me and my clients is that we feel secured: there are always experts around (CS-Cart support or community experts) who are ready to help. I can recommend CS-Cart MV for small- to mid-size business who are looking for a solution to build a marketplace that can operate worldwide, support thousands of products from hundreds of vendors presented in dozen of languages. ----- ### "Best Multi-Vendor Software as per my 4 Years of Usage" — 5.0/5 > **Rajendra** | *1 November 2018* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: There is List of Positive i like in it. 1) Framework Design structure - Cs-cart Team has designed a very flexible framework and internally independent , as a result it becomes easier to develop it to any level. We have created 60 Plugins and running on single platform. When we have so much changes system becomes complicated...but in cs-cart it is not. 2) Easy to start - When we were fresher or a Start-up - the foundation framework supported a Lot. Support by software is very important for any start-up or Business. 3) Security - Cs-cart team is very fast in rectification security even before any user gets experienced. Practically every time cs-cart updates us about any Vulnerability they found. 4) Cs-cart Design also helps to develop in Team. - Just because cs-cart is structurally independent ...we can connect multiple developers on multiple tasks and merge it at last...resulting easy manageable process for development. 5)Support from Cs-cart team and level of upgrades they provide - They are very good and now a days they are working extremely hard and fast to provide good updates to its customer as per Market. I will only say - Its best than anything > > **Cons**: At present - Nothing. As everything is possible. and we can do anything we see in Any system on it without any issue or complications > > Its Awesome\!\!\!\! ----- ### "CS Cart MV review" — 3.0/5 > **Constandinos** | *19 March 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: \* Based on an older version - Easy to use by admin and vendors - A relatively economical yet powerful solution - Easy to expand the capability through a wide variety of addons available in CS Cart marketplace - Reliable and stable - Good support service - Includes all the core functionality someone needs to start - New versions released often > > **Cons**: \* Based on an older version - Creation and updating of webpages is not an easy process. Its a rather manual and not so easy process, that lags behind state of the art. - Platform's updating to latest versions is not a process that quietly happens in the background. Its a manual process that requires a LOT of work and testing, which can cost 1000's. - Too basic internal reporting capabilities. - Data importing from other platforms not straight forward. - No built in image compression/resize features, can result in poor performance when vendor imports huge image files - No internal collaboration tools between admin and vendors - No split payment option (Added in later version) ----- ### "Very formidable force in e-commerce" — 5.0/5 > **Masha** | *2 November 2018* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like scalability of CS-Cart. It was not overwhelming for me to use when I started few years ago, and now as we grow, we are still able to utilise its advanced features. Some solutions out there become restrictive after a few years, however, this is not the case for CS-Cart. It just helps business to grow and matures with it. Another important aspect of it is that it just works. It is very agile, robust, secure and intuitive for new members. Cs-Cart team keeps on top of all the latest developments and therefore this solutions is very powerful, even just out of the box. There are a few very good developers who specialise in CS-Cart and very tuned into business aspects. As a result, you get some good add ons that keep this solution on the cutting edge of e-commerce. > > **Cons**: I can not really find anything bad about Cs-Cart. But if I really need to find something, I would say that although creators of CS-Cart listen to feedback from users, sometimes they do not implement functionalities which are on my wish list. However, these could be too specific to my business and therefore, if nobody else asks for them, they do not get implemented. Great thing is that there are developers out there which can supercharge and evolve Cs-Cart for even the most demanding businesses. ----- ### "After 2 years of using CS-Cart MV" — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *1 November 2018* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using CS-Cart MV for 3 years now without any issues. It has all the features you can ever imagine if you compare to any Multivendor platform like Amazon..Its fast, changes are applied instantly, product options are amazing. You can also act on behalf of Vendors from the admin Panel and process orders. I dont have the latest update but I have been using my version without bugs whatsoever. I have tried many others platforms, I would say this is the easiest one to use by far. You can also find a lot of 3rd party add-ons and themes at affordable prices. I also like the import/export tool and its responsive on any plattform you are using. Great work from CS-Cart team and developers, keep it up. > > **Cons**: Nothing really, I discovered one bug when adding products with variables options, some work to be done manually, but I am sure this has been resolved in one of the updates I dont have. Another thing is the display of products on mobile, I would like to have 2 products per row by default instead of one. > > Overall its a great experience using CS-Cart MV, I dont have a lot of Vendors, but focusing on a few line of products. Our vendors like it, especially that products can be approved by admin before going live in one click\! ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/176908/multi-vendor-marketplace?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/176908/multi-vendor-marketplace) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
