"This is very good software if you have no need for customizing the script, and live in the USA. However, if you don't fit into this category, don't use it. It's not flexible and the support is lousy. It's a black box company: their communications, information and support stinks, which is remarkable since it's not cheap software."

"This cart is clearly aimed at those who want to get on and sell, not sit around tweaking for weeks. Lots of features to help you sell. If you want to tinker under the hood, probably not the best cart, but for those who just want to sell, and do it well, a great choice."

"I felt compelled to write a review based upon another review on this page. My experiences were very different than Jurgen's. In fact, I don't see how location makes any difference at all. My site www.frogsfrillsanddaffodils.com is completely customized on both the graphic and source code side. We found the code to be well documented and all questions we had were answered in a timely manner. Funny thing is I don't need support after the first week of getting used to the software. I recommend this software to anyone who is serious about selling online. "

"Within five minutes of signing up for Pinnacle Cart, I received a phone call from one of their represenatives to welcome me and see if I had any questions. Pinnacle Cart is incredibly clean, easy-to-use, and full of features."

"I have had nothing but problems with the software. Bugs after bugs popping up. Lack of support after the first 30 days (no phone after that). Stay away, if you need a system that is functional."

"I agree that their support is top notch. I happen to live in Phoenix so being in the same time zone as the developers helps. I'm sure that if you happen to be overseas your experience might be different because it isn't 24/7 support.
The layout is a little bit clunky because it is heavily table based however I am able to get into the source and am in the process of converting the layout to a totally CSS based layout. Once I got a feel for how the files were set up it is relatively simple. That said, I look forward to future versions that will hopefully be fully CSS based and have a separate of logic from display.
The functionality is very well thought through and simple to use. It is definitely a cart that could get you up and running in very little time. "

"I spent a long time looking for a cart before deciding on Pinnacle Cart and it was well worth my search. The cart is very easy to customize for even the most demanding of designers (me), but it can also be customized by just clicking buttons in the admin section. There are lots of nice features, such as the ability to enlarge an image from the product page, an automatic thumbnail generator, inventory control (great for antique dealers who have only one item or big sellers who go out of stock quickly), one page checkout, a straight-forward admin area to keep everything under control easily, and way much more. It is so easy to be creative with this cart and to make it function that anyone can do it. For software which performs so many complicated tasks, Pinnacle Cart makes it very easy. I highly recommend this product and I have used it now on multiple sites."
