Advice and recommendations for ecommerce CMS
-
One of my clients uses oscommerce as the CMS for their ecommerce websites. I think it it quite dated and inflexible for layout and design purposes.
We have been looking at Woocommerce plugin with Wordpress as an alternative. Client has the following minimum requirements:
1. Ability to Manually enter and edit existing orders/
2. Export Orders and Sales Tax Information to QuickBooks etc.
3. Sync inventory with Quickbooks POS.
4. One Page Checkout
5. Ability to either send out directly or through third party integration, a email marketing service to customers.
6. The site needs to be SEO'ed thoroughly so SEO is a top priority.
Anyone have any experience with Woocommerce? So far, Woocommerce looks pretty exhaustive, but I am unable to contact WooCommerce for support unless I purchase their theme or extension plugins.
Thoughts, advise, recommendations?

Hi,
To make the integration with QuickBooks you will need a third party service I recommend Web Gility. Their service is compatible with woo commerce you can check in the link:

About the shopping cart I would chose the one your developer have more experience. If you are the developer and you dont have experience with any shopping cart pick the one you find better documentation and active community. So you can ask questions when you dont find in the documentation.
I am sure that any option out there won't have everything you need done and will require customization.
I personally got everything in your requirements done using Magento.
