Prestashop E-Commerce Installation
March 1st, 2009

prestashopNetThink 21 developed a complete customized e-commerce web site for Surf Shack Baby using Prestashop, with another Prestashop site under development. Prestashop is just one example of a new wave of e-commerce platforms that includes Magento and (soon) ZenCart 2.0.

Prestashop is a good choice if:

  • PayPal is your primary payment gateway
  • You ship by UPS, or if you use order price to determine shipping cost
  • You want great performance on Google (friendly URLs and custom page titles)
  • Tagging products is important
  • You want a clean, functional shop with tools like color picker and sliding galleries

Prestashop may fall short of your needs if:

  • You have very specific payment gateway needs
  • You want to use FedEx for shipping, or USPS by weight
  • You require detailed statistics from the back-end

For many companies about to open an online store, Prestashop remains an excellent choice of platform. Our clients love the clean look of the store’s front-end, and have given positive feedback on the easy to manage back-end that controls the orders and inventory. NetThink 21 can develop and customize Prestashop to meet your needs for e-commerce - contact us for a quote on your e-commerce project.
