Magento killer based on EE?

    I’ve looked into FoxEE, and CartThrob.  Both do not meet my needs.  FoxyCart is hosted by them, which is no good.  CartThrob is not for multiple domains (their own words), which is no good.

    I’d really love to use a full-featured EE-based shopping cart.  I wouldn’t mind dropping for a couple hundred dollars for such a thing, if it can compete with the likes of Magento.

    Is there a `serious` cart, for multiple domains, and all the bells and whistles, but also uses EE for managing its pages/users?  I’d rather not have 2 CMS’s side by side, by the way, that also would not meet my needs.

    thanks for any advice, all.

    You can also check out Brilliant Retail though, I can’t image it being for multiple domains either but, better ask them to be certain.

    Hi gavincali

    We’re using Brilliant Retail as well. I can’t see a MSM feature on their page(s) either.

    Do you realise that although FoxyCart is hosted it pulls product info out of EE, therefor there’s no duplicate entry needed?

    Magento is really a killer. But i find the templating is to hard and complicated.
    Magento templating is for the olympian programming-gods *lol

    I hear you about the templates in Mage. I don’t think there is a mage killer out there right now but I also think they are focused more on the enterprise customer despite the release of Go.
