Write report on leading shopping carts

Produce a report about the common shopping cart systems. My company produces software which interfaces with shopping carts, and we need an informed overview of the players in the industry. We are already quite familiar with many shopping carts, but we are looking for a broad report to broaden our understanding. Produce a report listing: * top 5 PHP shopping cart systems for typical retailers (e.g., an online retailer with $1k to $100k sales) * top 5 ASP shopping cart systems for typical retailers * top 5 JSP shopping cart systems for typical retailers * top 5 CFM shopping cart systems for typical retailers * Other common engines in other languages, like Ruby, Python, Perl, etc. * other proprietary/compiled shopping cart systems * summary of the high end shopping cart platforms used by major retailers. (e.g., Major international brand stores) * links to 4 summary/review articles on the net, comparing shopping carts You should only bid on this project if you or your company have been broadly involved in setting up a wide range of different types of shopping carts. For each system, I want the: company name, product name, product URL, API/documentation URL, platform, data storage format or db, pros (2 sentences), cons (2 sentences), cost, typical client type, the maximum items it can reasonably handle, perceived ease of installation [***,**, or *], deployment rating (your sense of how many installations there are [***,**, or * ]). Include with your bid an estimate how how many hours of research you estimate it will take. Thank you for your bid. ## Deliverables Deliverable is a .doc and/or .xls file. ## Platform document
