Wished I would have read the reviews first May 9, 2004

I purchased this product without reading the reviews first, DON'T BUY THIS. I wasted time reading the instructions to figure out how to develop a commerce site and realized that numerous steps were skipped or out of order. I contacted technical support with questions and suggestions and their response was just as vague/unhelpful as the lame manual. I never did get the commerce features (tables) to work, but it looks like when you download orders or update products that the website has to be "locked" while you do this. What a pain!

No idea if it can work at all. Other owners specify Boomerang Software charges for all aspects of this product...extra!! NO DECENT DOCUMENTATION. Understand a totorial can only be had for extra money!

Worse piece of software I have ever had the displeasure of using. I live in Mass and thought why not give them a try, they are from here, ha never again! I'll explain just a few of problems with this software. Documentation comes in 2 books web building and e-commerce .....it covers the software functions accurately. No problem there the problem comes in it's not user friendly. You can't develop or customize freely, "shopping cart side of the software" you have to pay Boomerang for that. So if you want a to add to our delete parts of the shopping cart you're out of luck, unless you are a programmer and love getting into the middle of database structure that's laid out in the templates provided. No way to add in options that aren't default, such as paying by paypal, discover, or many others not listed in the program. You have to pay extras for that. Your choice is limited to what's there on their templates and that's it. I could go on and on but this would become a book. This software is so limiting that after spending weeks on it......I was so disgusted and frustrated that I started looking for something else. The people at Boomerang did answer all emails to their credit. The price was reasonable @59.99 , but has taught me a very valuable lesson indeed, "You really do get what you pay for" I will never forget that phrase for as long as I live now. I develop web sites for a hobby, so I have seen good software packages and bad ones, but not of this caliber. I was in a hurry and needed a shopping cart for a friend that I was helping. She's on a win2k system which is part of the reason I looked into this program. On a positive side, the web developing part of the software is actually pretty good......but that's not what I bought this for......I wanted a shopping cart for e-commerce, not web building.....it's pretty much wysiwyg. If they named it "Webshop web building" that would have made me look elsewhere for a shopping cart. Their idea of a shopping cart ..., IMHO, but what do I know.....I was stupid enough to buy it. I just know I will never buy anything from this company again!

...BR>I do NOT recommend this software for anyone considering building a personal or e-commerce web site. The package comes with 2 manuals but there are NO recommendations as to which one you should start with. If building an e-commerce site, you are forced to pay an additional $... for a "credit card license". PayPal, I believe is free. You are forcing me to "shell out" additional cash just to test my application. No tutorial comes with the software, you must pay extra for that. You are restricted to ASP. You need an additional tool, which you must purchase for JSP. There is nothing intutive about the software and it is difficult to use. I do not understand how they sold so many copies as they claim.

This program was really a disappointment. As mentioned previous, the templates are real weak and limited and really offer no value. The e-commerce capabilities are not intuitive and overall I found it to be a waste of my money. Shareware offers better products.
