My original mail to product-developers wasn't delivered. I don't receive emails from the product-developers mailinglist anymore (since Oct 12). Posting this from
http://plone.org/support/forums/addons, hope that helps.
Here are my notes to from the Open Spaces "E-commerce" talk (full title: Are there any good python e-commerce systems? Are there? Can we make them better together? Can we integrate with Plone? - Sasha Vincic)
Please feel free to add stuff, point out missing and misspelled names, etc.
CURRENT SOLUTIONS:
Plone:
- GetPaid
- EasyShop (abandoned)
- PloneMall (abandoned)
Django:
- Satchmo
OpenObject:
- OpenERP
PHP frameworks:
- Magento framework
- allows enabling / disabling of features
CHOICES:
Loosely coupled payments FROM Plone site, or all in Plone?
STORIES:
Start with a webshop, turn it into a CMS?
Or do it the other way round?
DEVELOPERS' EXPERIENCES:
Kees Hink (GW20e):
- Colleaugue has done a Django project using Icepay (payment through redirect)
Guy Zurcher:
- redirect is easy, avoid having certification of your own
- SaferPay (CH only)
- nice styling options
- PayPal
- Ogone (bad)
Sasha: may also use API's instead of redirects
- PayPal
- direct payments with banks via Java API's (Sweden)
ISSUES WITH GETPAID: (still currently the most feasible option)
- still not well integrated
- many dependencies
- note: there's the basic Zope getpaid (PyPI: getpaid.*)
and then there's PloneGetPaid (Products.PloneGetPaid)
- uses SVN code
- code should be in collective
- is an issue because you'll always be customizing
