Comparison of opencart vs. magento vs. osc vs. zencart in Google trends

 

 

Here is a picture from google trends for leading open source shopping carts, opencart, magento, oscommerce and zencart comparison of google search. Scale is based on the average worldwide traffic of magento in all years.

From the figure we can clearly see the veteran OsCommerce is still very strong. OsCommerce's architecture has seriously limited its scalability and flexibility. This is why zen-cart will be the replacement. Derived from oscommerce, zencart major developers are also teams from OsCommerce. They made up for the inadequacy of OSC and zen-cart has been developed by leaps and bounds to become the most popular open source e-commerce program.

From 2007 onwards, no one can ignore the rise of Magento. In the above chart we can clearly see the red line represented by an upward trend in Magento and irresistible to attract people's attention. Magento's popularity has far exceeded the zen-cart, is rapidly catching up oscommerce. In particular, the stability of the official 2008 version released later, magento's advanced architecture, a strong team to support, highly customizable online shop makes magento become the best choice for high-end e-commerce platforms.

PS

opencart does not have enough search volume for ranking, explained in the google result.
