Andy is the owner of the company profiting off Ubercart, in fact he recently acquired the trademark of the 'free' project. The Ubercart project is a trainwreck. Completely fragmenting the community.

I can say that it is: 1. a VERY nice cart, 2 it works with its host, Drupal, VERY well, 3 its quality is recognized throughout the Drupal community 4 its developers are devoted to it, responsive to posts and concerns and open minded about things like, oh ... whether the tagline 'powered by ubercart' is mandatory or not. 5 Bottom line: good stuff done by good folks. P.S. I agree that your comments about the other carts were, for the ones I am familiar with, spot on. Leveraging yours, my brief thoughts about them are: Prestashop Very nice looking, looks pretty feature complete, gonna try it soon. OScommerce quick & responsive, ugly face, tangled code, but: lots of themes available and many services target it (probably because it's a granddaddy cart and most every host has it). Magento very pretty, very complete, dog slow Ubercart A VERY good reason to choose drupal. Zen Cart Too often found myself digging through the code. Somehow, even the commercial themes can't hide the ugly. I have worked with Ubercart on my test site. I can say that it is:
