Ecommerce + social media = open source or hosted solution?

What platform for social commerce?

[richardalois]

Hi there,

I am looking for a platform with the "standard" ecommerce features but also social integration which includes:
- A blog
- A forum (text + video + pictures)

Do you guys know of the best platform solution here? Is something like that offered by the hosted solutions providers? Or by OS software Magneto/OScommerce?

Any advice appreciated
Richard

Welcome to WebmasterWorld!

Adding those two items is actually relatively easy to any non-hosted solution.

And there really is no "best" platform solution. It's all dependent upon what your particular needs are. We each have our faves/preferences.
