Version: Fortune3 E-Commerce & Shopping Cart Solutions Wizard 2010 7.4.331

Pros

Their Fees

Cons

P C Based software which sucks big time
outdated templates
outdated layouts
outdated vs competition
no access to back end
charges a lot for any integrations/back end updates
no feature updates
slow site
harassing customer care

Summary

I'm totally disappointed with fortune3, they are lagging way behind in features,designs, layout, etc etc compared to competitors, the site is slow as well, their stupid system of pc based s/w which will annoy you big time if you are working from multiple Pc's, finally they promised to rectify it in the latest version and it was supposed to be released early summer, but now their people are telling it will be released soon(???)
there is no definite date, and if you ask more you will be harassed by the helpdesk technicians,which is unacceptable, my company is considering a change in the platform,as we had suffered a major data loss because of the pc based s/w, kindly go through their newsletter below and you can see the shift in their language, pushing the release without any definite date

" Feb newsletter
Fortune3's developers have been extremely focused on finishing some great new features and tools for our online merchants. Among these features will be recurring billing, auto-ship, more advanced settings for option images and for displaying options for your products, and customized auto-email features. Keep an eye out for our next Newsletter within the next week or two, which will explain these new features in detail, or follow our social media sites to stay informed. Fortune3 is also working on an incredible new major version 2012, tentatively scheduled for release in early summer 0212.

March newsletter
Fortune3 is moving the ball towards its next-generation e-commerce platform. Major platform changes are under way to make way for Version 2012 of the Fortune3 Wizard, tentative scheduled for release in early summer 2012. The new release will include many new features, new modern templates, layouts, buttons, and more importantly, it will be a change in platform that will allow you to use Fortune3 from any location simply by logging in, without having to download your store's data (or rescue) files, and with the ability to use it in multi-user mode (multiple users from any location at the same time!).

In the meantime, Fortune3 will be releasing some new and exciting features in the coming days and weeks. Recurring billing and auto-ship options are almost complete and expected to be released in the coming days, along with auto-email options for configuring automated e-mails to send to clients with the settings of your choice, and new settings for configuring and showing product options and their images. Keep an eye out for an e-mail detailing this feature release in the coming days. Additionally, a product comparison tool is scheduled for release in the first weeks April 2012.

"Excellent shopping cart software Great customer support"

November 24, 2011  |   By ardiwest

Version: Fortune3 E-Commerce & Shopping Cart Solutions Wizard 2010 7.4.331

Pros

This is a FULL VERSION shopping cart software with a 30 day free trial that also includes web hosting.

Cons

Waiting for the mac version.

Summary

This full version shopping cart provides a 30 day free trial, and it will fit for online merchants who are frustrated of losing sales due to unprofessional software and poor web hosting and server capabilities. Fortune3 offers a bullet proof online store solution with outstanding well managed ecommerce hosting service which is also included at no additional cost with the license.
By the way, I do not agree with a comment posted by another user:

The customer support is EXCELLENT!

"Terrible and Pathetic"

September 5, 2011  |   By sandynewbie

Version: Fortune3 E-Commerce & Shopping Cart Solutions Wizard 2010 7.4.331

Pros

they are very sweet before you sign up

Cons

few/no feature updates
not easy to customize
limited templates
designs not contemporary compared to competioion
abusive support staff
lots of hidden charges
charges heavily for any modifications
and most of the sample live sites shown are dummy sites

Summary

a less than average cart with very few or no feature upgrades,they say it is easily customizable but it is not, and if you need fortune3 to do any customization, then get ready to pay through your nose, for eg, a normal Geotrust ssl(quick ssl premium)
certificate which cost$149, fortune will charge you $349, a whopping $200 margin.
like this you will be paying a premium for every small modifications/changes

and above all like a cherry on top the most abusive support staff I've ever seen, they will insult you without any reason

If i have to rate them I will give a generous 1/5

if you are planning to subscribe, do it at your own risk
