>From the little I've read about it, you can connect to various payment gateways 
and use your own designs and create your own components.

Subject: Re: [joomla] BC vs. Joomla

How much does BC cost per month? I am also wondering if it is anything
like Yahoo Stores, which I find confusing, difficult to design and
program, and uses code that is not search engine friendly.

The thing that scares me about these software as a service (SOS)
e-commerce programs is you don't have control over the design and
other features, like being able to connect to certain payment
gateways. Also, what happens if the client wants features like forums
and galleries?

I personally would stick to Joomla! with Tienda.
