Hi everyone,


Let's say I am using alfresco to store all my digital documents e.g. http://internal-alfresco-site.com

There are certain documents which I plan to sell it on my website e.g. http://public-ecommerce.com

So basically people can come into my public site and buy certain documents. Note, not all documents are sellable online.

Basically in Alfresco, I can choose which document which will appear online at the shopping cart.

Can this be done with Alfresco?

Any help? Thanks.

Can it be done?  Yes there are lots of e-commerce sites that use alfresco as a back-end.  Its a common use-case.

Magento is one of the best CMS for eCommerce sites or online stores. Magento CMS was first presented under the name of Bento by Varien, worked with oscommerce. Initially, it was only an offshoot of the system, but later it became an independent project. Due to a conflict with filemaker Inc., which has used the trademark Bento, CMS was decided to rename in Magento - a derivative of the Mage (magician, wizard) and Bento. But one thing should must be kept in mind that it has much compicated user interface. If you don't know about programming than don't try it. Anyways, thanks to all of you for making this great effort. Magento Development Company ileaddigital.com/services/web-design/ecommerce-web-development.
