Most entrepreneurs have no money to lose when they start an internet business. As a result, many shop owners will go for some of the open source solutions because it is free. The open source solution, though seemingly free, may not be as profitable for beginning shop owners as it seemed at the beginning, especially when compared to a quality paid shop.
Open Source vs Paid Shop
The advantages of open source shop are obvious. It is free. However, to get a functional business out of open source solutions, it is far from enough to install it. The installation and subsequent modifications of these shops are much more complicated than with a paid solution, and you usually spend a lot of time tuning and setting up everything to make your shop work at least a little. On the other hand, if you choose a paid turnkey shop program, you will get functional software for a one-time fee, which you will install in minutes and start selling immediately.
Hidden Costs of Open Source Shops
While open source shop solutions boast of being free, it's not quite true. Their basic versions do not contain important features that are specific to a given country in a country and which are absolutely necessary for business functionality. A large community of people are moving around open source projects, offering a variety of add-ons and extensions to the original program, but you'll have to pay for most of the high-quality and needy ones, which will increase the cost of open source solutions a lot.
