Prestashop has been used by thousands of online e-commerce stores in order to create a powerful, usable and reliable shopping experience for their customers. PrestaShop, released in 2007, is a fully open-source and free shopping cart platform for your eCommerce website. With fewer shops using this software, it may not be as popular as some other carts, but it definitely has a full list of features that say it is here to stay. The software claims to run without major headaches for shoppers, even for those on slower connections due because of its incredibly small size. This cart is generally good for small to medium-sized endeavours.

A great place to start searching for themes is the addons area of the PrestaShop website. More customised templates may require you to consult a web designer.

Keeping PrestaShop Updated

Keeping PrestaShop updated needs to be a priority if you do decide to use this software. If you do not update PrestaShop you can leave your website open to security attacks and vulnerabilities which can be detrimental to your website and business. Beyond keeping the site safe, completing updates will leave you with not only better running software, but often additional features as well.

The PrestaShop Release News section provides notices on the latest version of PrestaShop, along with a list of all the additional features and links to update instructions.
