Both Zen Cart and WooCommerce have their peculiarities and they both are worth paying

attention to. It doesn’t mean, however, that they both are equally good for you in particular. The

choice of a shopping cart depends on many factors – the size of your business, the type of the

products you sell, the country you live in. And your taste, of course. If you found yourself

dissatisfied with your Zen Cart and consider migrating to WooCommerce, Cart2Cart automated

migration service will be very helpful for you.

One of the reasons to choose WooCommerce is its content management possibilities. As a

WordPress plugin, WooCommerce is compatible with different types of content, which makes it

possible to set up something more than a regular online shop. Other favorable features of

WooCommerce are high functionality, accessibility and usability, numerous extensions and

design themes, marketing and promotional tools.

need to fill in a form to register a Cart2Cart account. It will take no more than a few minutes. Or

you can sign in via your Google or Facebook account. Before you start, make sure that both your
