Open Source Software

It’s the creation of stores online, open source software and free, with more tradition that we have tried so far. Magento, Prestashop and many others have emerged in the world of online with reference to OsCommerce stores. It was released in 2000, developed in PHP and version 3.0.2 is now stagnant in its beta form. The largest community of developers in Spanish disappeared in 2011. For more than one decade, OsCommerce worked and gave coverage to hundreds of online stores. It was not until 2010 that a more stable version, appeared too long if we take into account that they had registered more than fourteen thousand online stores.

At present however, barely exceeds the twelve thousand and the trend continues downward. In the meantime, arise other applications like Magento and Prestashop willing to correct all those deficiencies of the father of software creation and design of online stores. OsCommerce has been developed and updated, as all programs open source, by a large community that follows the philosophy of the brand, get a solution each time better, more stable and with more features. However, OsCommerce has been left behind, he has failed to modernize, adapt to new demands and other young and dynamic programs have taken the lead. It is a powerful program but your system tables and design has become obsolete. It has large amount of modules already developed, with a multitude of payment gateways and with possibility of several languages, but great knowledge of programming in PHP are required to perform any change web hosting. Neither account with large investments as other applications, Magento, Prestashop, in the latest stable version have been corrected quite a few security problems but it has not been enough.

OsCommerce installation is simple and clean but needs of a multitude of modules to operate as a true shop online Desenvolvimento websites. In beats other aspects the battle to Magento, for example in regard to the structure of your database and use of the cache. Also in his favor will tell that to operate it consumes far fewer resources that other CMS, however, doesn’t work with Css, as if Prestashop, makes it a nightmare which makes the design of the online shop. We will have to wait and see if the community of OsCommerce resumes work on the latest beta, if he is decided to change its system of tables, to put an end to solve security issues and if it adds to the brilliant career which have undertaken other CMS.

Visual Illusions

If you want to lengthen a short corridor, you can paint the walls a dark color and the ceiling and the floor make light.
