 Zen Cart: Why should I use Zen Cart

Zen CartZen cart is a free base code shopping cart.  I have been working with zen cart for over 2 years and find it to be an easy platform to work with.

Zen Cart™ truly is the art of e-commerce; a free, user-friendly, open source shopping cart system. The software is being developed by group of like-minded shop owners, programmers, designers, and consultants that think e-commerce could be and should be done differently.


Some "solutions" seem to be complicated programming exercises instead of responding to users' needs, Zen Cart™ puts the merchants and shoppers requirements first. Similarly, other programs are nearly impossible to install and use without an IT degree, Zen Cart™ can be installed and set-up by anyone with the most basic web site building and computer skills.


There are hundreds of shopping cart programs available, but none come close to offering to level of options, features and support available with Zen Cart™. Even the commercial programs have a hard time competing.

Zen Cart is a very nice program for the beginner to start with, once the Zen Cart is installed, and the Zen Cart template is created, to add a new product, to Zen Cart is it very easy.

The Zen Cart template on the other hand is a bit more complicated and and we have just added a new course on how to customize a Zen Cart Template.  There are many services out there offer many standard template for Zen Cart, but most of the time, there is one or two to select from in your industry.  Please note, you will need a graphics program such as Adobe Photoshop to edit the graphics of your Zen Cart Template.  We also offer this training, and you may take out on-line Adobe Photoshop training, then the How to customize a Zen Cart Template.

If you find a template which is acceptable to you on one of the many template website, then you will still need to change graphics like the header, and footer.

We have recently up-dated our training in Zen Cart to include more of the blocks and modules, which will increase your sales.  One of the modules for Zen Cart is the cross selling module, which allows you to recommend more products from your website to your visiting customers.

This is a one-on-one Zen Cart training program, which we use live Zen Cart, either on your server, or on Ours.  We then both work on the same pages, and develop a  real working shopping cart for you.  This is real world, do it now, so you can see, do and remember.

We enjoy our hands on Zen Cart training, and so will you.

If you would like to speak with our send cart trainer, just to see how it would be, please call and leave a message in his voice mail to set up a free intro to Zen Cart.  808-647-0821
