E-commerce Platform Selection: 13 Areas to Evaluate

Quote:In my first post, I discussed the first seven areas you should evaluate your ecommerce options. The areas we covered in the first post are:

1. Out of the box features
2. Time-to-market
3. Ease of migration from current systems to new platform
4. Ease of integration with external and internal systems
5. Scalability issues
6. Ease of customization (branding, change of look and feel, etc.)
7. Upgrade challenges with an ecommerce package

In this post I discuss the other 6 areas you should consider when choosing an ecommerce option:

8. Backward support of platform...
9. Cost structure of the solution...
10. Internationalization...
11. Maintenance...
12. Search engine friendliness...
13. Conversion optimization...
