What's the difference between ECshop and shopex?

What's the difference between ecshop and shopex? Many customers ask this question because these two systems are the largest open source e-commerce systems in China.

The difference between Shopex and ecshop

First, the code is free and open source.

SHOPEX:ShopEx online store system provides free download, free use and free upgrade, and there is no restriction on the use time and function, just like the commercial version. But SHOPEX is optimized, the background source code is encrypted, and the foreground source code is open source.

ECSHOP:ECSHOP is an open source and free general e-commerce platform building software. Users can customize ECSHOP according to their own business characteristics, and increase their own mall features.

SHOPEX and ECSHOP are also free; The previous messenger, reminder tools and files that generate static pages in the background are all encrypted, and only support foreground open source, which is not conducive to user modification and secondary development. While ECSHOP fully supports open source, ECSHOP occupies the first place in this respect, and we also believe that one day in the future, SHOPEX will also realize open source.

Second, the payment gateway SHOPEX:

At present, SHOPEX has built 34 international and domestic online payment gateways such as UnionPay, Kuaiqian and Alipay. There is no need to make another gateway interface, and users can freely choose the appropriate gateway to quickly realize the online payment function.

ECSHOP: Payment gateway support is provided by plug-ins, and users can choose their own payment methods. ECSHOP has built-in six payment gateways commonly used in China, such as UnionPay, Kuaiqian and Alipay.

SHOPEX and ECSHOP will provide more payment gateway choices according to users' needs. Although SHOPEX provides a variety of payment gateways, if users need some less used gateways, they must customize them to the official. ECSHOP provides a complete payment plug-in specification document, which is convenient for users to modify and expand.

Third, news and membership integration SHOPEX:

SHOPEX not only has a built-in message board, but also provides an external message board. The system provides the same as cmsware and discuz! The integrated function module of the forum can add QQ, MSN, Taobao Want Want, Alibaba Tradelink and Skype. After adding, you can choose to display it in the copyright information office at the bottom of the page or contact us. In the background, the online customer service system integrates a free web-based customer service system-53KF customer service system.

ECSHOP:

ECSHOP also provides a built-in message board, and ECSHOP uses plug-in mechanism to realize seamless integration with the forum. At present, it has supported such common forums as discuz, phpwind, phpbb, vbb, MolyX, BMForum and ipb. The member data sharing is realized, and there is no need for repeated login and registration, and an independent login and registration entrance is reserved for forums and shopping malls.

Comments:

SHOPEX only provides technical documentation of integrated interfaces. If users need other forum interfaces, they need to do it themselves. ECSHOP almost integrates the commonly used php forum programs.
