If Mal's is free, why do I need Shoppe Pro?
Mal's is a great shopping cart if you have lots of HTML experience or just want to add a couple of "buy it now" buttons to your site. With Mal's, you need to add a 'buy button' and create the html for each product, as well as create all of your website pages one by one. They do not offer a catalog system or a content management system.
Shoppe Pro is an easy database driven catalog system and content management system (CMS). No HTML experience is needed to maintain your website. Shoppe Pro is a convenient way to manage your entire site, from the pages on through the catalog. You have all the features of a built in store with inventory controls, gift certificates, a guest book, a wholesale area, wish lists and so much more, all in one easy interface. Mal's acts just like a gateway between your website and your payment method to provide the secure e-commerce portion of your website.
