Compare X-Cart Gold vs Pro
X-Cart GOLD vs X-Cart PRO: which one do you really need?
X-Cart Gold is a solution that allows selling products online. The products sold with the help of X-Cart Gold can be of your own production or made by third parties, however only one seller can access the cart back-end and operate the store. No third-party sellers are allowed.
X-Cart PRO, on the other hand, is a solution which allows multiple companies to sell their products online. So a store owner can let third-party sellers use the store. The store owner will be referred to as the administrator, while the third-party sellers are referred to as providers.
