    Definitly ecw#d is not gonna be free aswell as say already foxyCart or ecw#d’s (Qual#yTe@am’s) other projects))

    It’s always better to ask the module/service vendor first, before making such statements : -)
    Ecwid has a free plan. It is forever free. No time limits, not setup fees, not transaction fees.
    All the features you get for free now, will always be free.

      Hi

      Thanks a lot, got your order ))

      Let me know if we can cooperate. Definitly ecw#d is not gonna be free aswell as say already foxyCart or ecw#d’s (Qual#yTe@am’s) other projects))



      There are two versions of Ecwid, one if paid and one is free. You might want to check that out

        Sounds interesting. But what I miss is a shop system which integrates it’s products into search result from the modx search engine.
        Regarding a possible integration of a Shopping Cart with MODx look at this page. Depending the complexity of your search requests (which tables), I could examine and propose you a customisation of AjaxSearch.

        The development of these customisations needs some PHP and/or MySQL code lines in a configuration file or a dedicated javascript file to manage the user interactions. These developments don’t require to hack the AjaxSearch code. But need to know AjaxSearch wink

          Oh, sorry.. You definitly create a good feature indeed, thanks. Hope it will power internet trade not only in the world but even in our small Lenin motherland (http://iec.ulstu.ru/en/Usefull_information/About_Ulyanovsk.html)

          But, I should also add to my prev comment that I meant any customization like logic or cupons would cost some $ as it’s on your site and not on the site where modx actually runs. Yeah, I see cupons can be enabled when subscribed to non-free plan...as well as other "can be tweaked" only default features
          So, it was just you know like letting modx users know that ecwid is not under GPL license like some ecommerce eXtras for ModX, right? Nevetherless Ruslan said "ecwid’s biz model is free" it is not like ModX’s one, correct?

            SaaS and "your own app on your own server" models have different pros and cons. So we cannot really say that for example any of them is definitely better than the other one. It depends on what you want to get.

            SaaS`s pros: no issues or problems with upgrades, security, performance.
            Cons: no access to the source code, thus limited customization abilities

            "Your own app on your own server"`s pros: access to the source code, so you can modify anything you want
            Cons: you should tweak, change and maintain everything (code, servers, upgrades) yourself.

            Well, I personally, prefer SaaS. That`s why I use for ex. Gmail instead of creating my own mail server

            Yep, Ecwid (i.e. the ervice itself) doesn’t have a GPL license, but it is free.
            The module which integrates Ecwid and ModX is free and has GPLv3 license.

            Ecwid has a freemium business model. The most features are free, some premium features are available for $17/mo.
