Prestashop allows you to create your e-commerce and manage your catalogue Products. The process of payment and shipping are deeply developed and permit many customization. You can create many rules that allow you to distinguish your customer basis on some attributes that you can need.
The Documentation is available but it is not deep. There are many plugins that allow you to customize your e-commerce but several are not free.

Pour conclure prestashop est un bon outil pour le création de site e-commerce et je le recommande, pour les personnes ayant très peu voir aucun budget pourquoi pas envisager un site wordpress avec l'extension woocommerce permet de transformer son site vitrine en véritable boutique e-commerce.
- Prestashop est une solution e-commerce open source- Le fait que prestashop soit un cms cela simplifie la création du site - Possibilité de vendre à l'international grâce au multilingue et différentes devises
- Les modules et les thèmes sont payant contrairement à wordpress et woocommerce qui sont une solution complètement gratuite

Prestashop is one of the most famous eCommerce CMS. It's free, intuitive, beginner friendly. You can customize your store with many addons and themes available on Marketplace. It offers lots of functionalities useful with marketing operations (SEO Friendly, Build-in Newsletter and Analytics).
Most of really useful addons on Marketplace are paid. Also I was having problems with spam.

Great functionality and simple to use design. It is possible to set it up with no special IT skills, just some general experience with tools like Wordpress etc. There is a variety of add-ons and widgets which make it highly flexible. You can find anything you need either for free or for cheap money. No need for expensive developers for tailored solutions.
The templates are pricey when comparing to other tools. There is a lot of work when adding new products - some of the fields are required while they should not be. For example for online products it is quite complex to set it up as my needs were much simpler than what was required. And I could not change the settings easily to require less information from customer etc.

I've been using the system for several years. I was sorting everything out from scratch, everything turned out pretty quickly. Impressions from use are mostly positive. Although, as elsewhere, there are some nuances. The system is not widely used among webmasters, absolutely undeservedly.
The main problem is SEO optimization. You can also note the clearly insufficient number of good templates and plug-ins.

I have been working with designers for a long time. The biggest problem was that they limited opportunities. I could not go beyond templates. For this reason, I was very happy to switch to CMS PrestaShop, since the platform has open source code, which means that any element of the design and interface can be redesigned according to my plan.
Graphical statistics have a terrible layout. Most of the screen is occupied by visual trash. And really important information is allocated less than half the space on the layout.

It is easy to install, configure and launch. In no more than one week you can run your online store and start selling online an unlimited number of products. You can do it by yourself and, in case you are not able to do, you can purchase add-ons to expand capabilities and hire any of the Prestashop partners to do it for you.
If your idea is to sell more than 1 million € / year or your catalog is over 1 million SKUs, forget about Prestashop... You will need a more stable tool with better integration capabilites and a more robust core. It will be more expensive to adapt the tool, than installing an enterprise commerce tool. Prestashop is good to have your first contact with e-commerce and play, not for grow a solid online channel.

I got to prestahop when creating an e-shop for my client. The lady needed to make a new e-shop and she already had experience with prestashop in the past, so it was the best option for her. The prestashop system can be understood quite quickly, but some time needs to be devoted to it.
Good option for eshop Quick deployment Many options
Some modules needed for work have quite high prices

Free open source platform, with lots of apps available for purchase and more user friendly back office, than Magento, OSCommerce
This was the platform I used prior to switching to Shopify. The platform was stable and had lots of apps (for purchase) to choose from. The only reason why I had made the change was because of the frequent updates that were becoming too time consuming, costly and inconvenient for my growing business.

If you need to start an e-commerce, even a big one, you can use prestashop, it's stable, the community is great and you can find any modules you want to do exactly what you want. From the small e-shop for a real shop, on for a manufacturer, to the biggest e-store with thousands of references prestashop can do it. But, don't think it's all free, you have to bay some essentials good modules, and the most important the support for them to be more peaceful.
In constant evolution, this product is great, you can easily start an e-commerce with some basic internet knowledge, of course you need to learn a lot before running a successful e-commerce, but you can start small with a really low cost.
If you need functionalities you need to pay, some payed modules are, in my point of view, essential and the cost is no so small.

I can say that at first glance, CMS PrestaShop is very attractive for the owners of online stores, because it integrates the payment system, and work with payments and orders, but it has a number of significant drawbacks.
Personally, I was not enough when working on the site in the administrative panel: when filling pages with text content, you need at least a basic knowledge of text formatting tags, since a special panel that allows, for example, to highlight the phrase in bold or slanted (as, for example, in CMS WordPress ), absent.

Easy to setup, easy to install new modules, many free modules, easy to upgrade. No one ecommerce platform is easy and complete like prestashop. The backend is well organized, the fronted is stable and fast.
When you're reaching 10k+ skus, the catalog starts to slow down and the way to manage large catalogs is not efficient.

About what online store our customers would not dream of, we can create it with PrestaShop. We choose professional templates, add an unlimited number of products and create custom solutions for payment and delivery. And the built-in opportunities for SEO-optimization of the site help to quickly promote the store in the search engines.
The transition from the old version of the software to a new one even as an experienced web programmer was difficult, I had to get used to some new options and functions.

With the help of CMS PrestaShop, we create online stores for our customers and continue to promote these projects. The platform provides the ability to post an unlimited number of products and categories, it has advanced SEO functions, there is integration with eBay, PayPal, etc.
You can not create a small forum based on CMS PrestaShop, there are no built-in timers, slider and tool for creating polls. Batch file uploads are not supported, so you have to work hard to fill the site with goods.

La mayor ventaja es tener una tienda online sin necesidad de un desarrollo propio y sin gasto inicial
Es gratuito y puede cubrir las necesidades básicas sin gastar dinero. No diría que es sencillo de usar, pero tampoco resulta demasiado complejo
A nivel SEO ofrece pocas funcionalidades. Es difícil que no necesites algún módulo de pago para tener funciones necesarias en cualquier tienda online

Most of the necessary functions in PrestaShop already exist, but what not, then you can buy ready-made solutions in the store, and most of the modules there are inexpensive and they are quite high-quality.
Of course, the CMS has minor flaws that developers should be aware of, but in the end they do not affect the quality of the system.

I like the PrestaShop platform because it takes quite a small amount of time for our company employees to create an infused site, largely due to the presence of numerous extensions.
It is difficult to customize the appearance of the software. To edit even insignificant things, an excessive amount of actions are required.

Despite the seeming simplicity, this system by its functionality will bypass many competitors. In this case, there is a good trial version. And the paid package is inexpensive. If the wizard understands the mechanics of the process, he will not let the engine go too far, correcting the process manually in time.
The main disadvantages: a few really useful templates and plug-ins. It's just a disgrace. This system is completely undeservedly ignored. It's sad, but true.
