 Topic: Which Version Should i Purchase?Posted: March/18/05 at 5:02pm |

I know my opinion is biased but I would too recommend the NET version. ASP is slowly going to be phased out and it has it's own quirks. If you compare the ASP and ASP .NET performance it's going to be significant and it has less foot prints on the server end. Plus .NET is the "next big thing" so might as well jump on the band-wagon :)

I would suggest going with the .NET version. Although it is a couple of hundred dollars more than the SQL version, you have more options. Not only do you get all the plugins, you also have the option of using an Access or SQL database. I am currently using the product with Access, but as my site grows I will update to SQL. I have been using SalesCart for about 5 years and upgraded from SalesCart Pro V5 to the .NET version. So far I am very happy with the way the product performs.

With that advice I'm going ahead with the SQL version. I don't want any issues with multiple users having problems browsing the site.
Thanks for your help. |

Hi,
It depends what you wanna do and how many vistors you are expecting. The PRO version uses an access database- if you build a dynamic database site in PRO you will be using access as your database software. Hooking up Access databases to work with salescart PRO is a piece of pudding and you won't have much trouble. As I understand things the SQL version is more suitable for really big sites or sites where there are going to be multiple users trying to shop at the same time- SQL is more stable and allows for a higher number of users. I think the limit for Access connections is a maximum of 25 users at any one time?! (I might be wrong on this one) I went for the PRO version as I've already got Access bundled in with MSOffice and I know the basics of creating Access databases. I've not come across any problems using the Access/ PRO setup. It's probably a good idea to ask Will about this- if you explain what you wanna do I'm sure he will give you the right advice Cheers |

Hi,
I'm looking into the product and I am not sure of the real difference between the PRO version and the SQL version other than the type of database (access or SQL) that it runs. Can someone guide me as far as which version of the software I should purchase and why I would want either one? Thanks! Edited by dccreatives |
