Which engine to choose for IM?

Question

CMS

Reviewed several engines, felt them inside and out. I looked at what modules are available for them, what about specialists (I myself am not a programmer), about maintenance. Of all the most pleasant were:
1. Bitrix 15. A lot of things, fast, a lot of functions, the necessary modules are there, with intelligent specialists it seems to be no problem either, if you look.
2.Shop-script 6. Pleasant admin panel, everything is clear, there are basic settings and modules, it seems smart. But I could not find large stores on it at all, even medium ones, mostly I found some kind of mono-brand or one group of goods, I also wondered about finding studios, developers, which is also problematic. Is it because of his unpopularity, or am I just looking for it?
I also considered the rest, but for some reason discarded them:
1. Magento - very slow, even the site slows down godlessly. We only have 2 large stores working on it, and both often slow down, and sometimes even hang at all. The cost of development is very expensive, the admin panel is oak, I would not even consider it for a large project.
2.ImageCMS, CS-Cart has few modules, I haven't seen large stores on them either, the admin panel is less convenient than that of SS.
3.OpenCart, Presta did not consider, due to the poor functionality out of the box, a mediocre admin panel, etc.
This is all of course IMHO, but I considered them based on my goals, this is an average store with the necessary "chips" that not all engines had.
So enlighten what to choose from them, what you had to work with, which is more promising in terms of development and more convenient for development.

Answer 1

Magento tried for a long time, and the truth was stupid. But it seems to be actively developing, in the West it is very popular.
Prestashop isn't really that bad, overall easy to learn and very flexible (I'm talking about developers). He even reminded me of Wordpress at work, only for online stores.
and so read siliconrus.com/2015/03/select-cms-2 here , first of all, comments.

Answer 2

Have you seen large stores on CS-Cart? Weird. If Bitrix is ​​not suitable, then definitely cs-cart, there are so many goodies without additional modules that it will be enough for our century.

Answer 3

For starters, you at least described the requirements that you place on your IM.
If you have a dozen products and you need to somehow more or less manage their sale, then look towards e-autopay.com Only this is not a CMS at all, but a SaaS service.
When I was selling various little things from China through one-pagers, I did not find a better solution. And in synchronization with usend.ru, the life of a small entrepreneur generally begins to seem like a fairy tale ...

Answer 4

Still, if you are not a programmer and there are no specialists, then it might be worth looking at SaaS solutions, for example www.ecwid.com - it will remove maintenance issues from you and give you a quick start for sales.

Answer 6

From small to quite large - WooCommerce is very good. Well, if an online hypermarket of the Enterprise level, then something highly specialized is better. The same Magento in the West has not just become popular.
