I love this package. I'm pretty naive and just started building a web store with a few items in it and then decided to boost it to 500+ and then freaked out when I understood what that decision entailed in terms of just setting up the shopping cart. I started looking around and this is the best thing I've ever imagined. I can upload 250 items in a few minutes, I can customize the input just by setting some fomulas around the fields in excel, embedding html, and format everything the way I want. If you visit my site in a couple of months, everything should be up and loaded. Right now, I'm still in the process of setting up the site and its content and everything will change dramatically. I'm teaching myself which is fun too.
Except for store manager, I would have stopped where I was. It's very easy to use and even though support is via e-mail, the support is exceptional. I've gotten very clear answers with screen prints. I can't say enough good stuff about this company!
I'll be looking to buy more of their products to help with the search engine submissions actually having some traffic.
Good luck!
Craig.
I am a bit sceptical about buying software, as claims are normally over-hyped. However I have to say this piece of software has been invaluable, as it has saved me an immense amount of time. And as my uncle use to say time is money, and the more time I save the more money I make. If you have a Zen Cart web site with more than 300 products, then this software is a must. Check out our site and see for yourself www.babylady.co.uk
I have been using Store manager for five months and i am really happy with the product that saves me a lot of time managing my webshop. Have used their support once and got very fast and accurate response. My confidence in Magneticone is high and i will probably buy and use other products from this company in the future.
