Zend Framework

Good afternoon, all forum users!
I need your help as experts. Decisive opinion, so to speak.
Soon I am launching an online retail store (Ukraine).
The number of goods is about 1,000, in the future, an increase in the range is expected - 4,000-10,000 goods.
It is planned to increase the categories.
Payment - cash, PrivatBank, installment plan, credit.
Integration with 1C is planned in the future.
Two companies offered me 2 different options - WordPress and Zend.
I am confused.
Tell me what is better for further promotion, fast work of the resource and minimal costs for maintaining the site.

Zend is not a CMS, but a framework. CMS based on Zend Framework is Magento 2, designed specifically for online stores.

Well, not exactly WP. Zend is questionable unless there is some very custom functionality. 4000 - 10000 is not so much, so I think it's better to look towards ready-made e-commerce engines like OpenCart, Magento, PrestaShop

For such an online store, either 1s Bitrix or ImageCMS would be best. The latter is generally intended for online stores. Very user friendly interface. WordPress is more suitable for blogs and information sites.

After all, it all depends on the budget and the specialist you hire. If, after creation, the person who was involved in the site does not remain in the team, then it’s better to take all the most pop and light technologies like WordPress with a plugin for a store or some opencart, so that later it would be easier to turn to a freelance exchange, for example, to fix the site.
If the specialist remains, then he chooses the platform himself, because he needs to refine it.
It is important not how many positions you have, but how many customers.
And well, I forgot to add, the speed of the site depends not so much on the engine on which it is written, but on the availability to the regions of sale, connection speed and a well-tuned server. Therefore, it is better to buy better hosting and hire people from freelance exchanges who will make a simple and fast online store for you, since there are enough specialists there.
Here, of course, it depends on the size of the company, but I would generally advise you to make the simplest self-writing without any kms and frameworks, because. an online store is the easiest to develop.

Magento. But there are no minimum costs.

If for a large one, for thousands of positions, it’s better to consider DotPlant2 , CMS as free, relatively young, on the Yii2 framework, but very noteworthy and sharpened for SEO promotion
