inno.shop

An innovative shop system for JTL.

Why another shop system?

There is a countless amount of shops already on the market. In the case of JTL, there are plenty shops available:

  • JTL-Shop
  • Shopware
  • ModifiedShop
  • PrestaShop
  • Gambio
  • WooCommerce
  • Shopify
  • Others...

So why should one need another shop system? -> All of them are not good for large businesses.

What does a large business need?

  • Super Speeeeeed
  • Super Stability (bugs are horrible)
  • Super Extensibility (you will never be happy with the standard)
  • Developer Friendliness (the shop should not waste your developers time)
  • Super Documentation
  • Open Mind / Open License
  • API first (come on, it's 2020)

Ok, there is a lot more. But I think you got the point.

All shop systems mentioned above fail in at least one category if setup with JTL.

The problem with third party shops

All shops, not developed by JTL itself have a fundamental problem: They are not compatible with JTL logic. Depending on your requirements, you will relatively fast get into trouble, with missing features and compatibility.

JTL-Shop

JTL's own shop was designed to work well for the small business. Regarding the aspects mentioned above, JTL-Shop is not good in the following categories:

  • Stability -> JTL-Shop has a strong focus on features. Sometimes the stability is not the best.
  • License -> OpenSource, but proprietary
  • Documentation -> Haha
  • API -> Good Luck
  • Developer Friendliness -> get your own impression

So why another shop system?

Because I need it. Because I am not satisfied with the current solutions.
