Why Use StoreForge?

There are many software packages available which claim "complete" e-commerce solutions for merchants. Why choose StoreForge, then? Here's a few of the things that set StoreForge apart.

  • Lightweight. StoreForge is not an all-encompassing solution for every possible aspect of e-commerce. Its primary component is a single CGI program which you can drop into your webserver and instantly begin building your webstore. You don't even need an external database.

  • East to use. The web-based admin interface is clean and straightforward. Even if you're new to e-commerce, you'll find yourself able to create listings for your products within minutes.

  • Flexible. Set your checkout options, add special tax rules for your state, define your shipping types, and more, without writing any code.

  • Look and feel. You can easily customize the look and feel of the view cart, checkout, and other customer-visible pages using standard HTML.

  • Well documented. Documentation in HTML format comes with your StoreForge distribution.

  • Source included. Full source code is included, so adding custom extensions is easy.
