Actinic Business - A highly functional and
feature-rich online business system. It has very
flexible design engine which allows easy integration of available
solutions. Also it has very rich import/export and integrative
features.
The main problem is that this product is extremely
overpriced according to the current ecommerce market standards. Since this product is not open
sources, you will be unable to modify it to suit your needs as the
support service is very poor and no custom development services are
available. Most of extra features available in Actinic (and any other
functionality you may need) can be developed by ViArt team in a short
time and with much less expenses.
