We have a client that needs an e-commerce site set up pretty quickly. As I have no experience with e-commerce, I am looking for some guidance. Basically, the two big features we need are:


Ability for customer to add info about order (example: the name the
customer wants to be put on the customizable product they ordered)
Ability for customer to upload photo of product to be customized


I hope this makes sense. Right now I am really looking into Shopify, but I can't tell if it does everything we need. I know you can add order notes when checking out, but not sure about image upload (maybe it can be added as an app through the API?).

Of course almost every checkout page will have a comments field, this is standard in most shopping carts. If this is not sufficient, then creating a custom field for each line item is almost always something that needs to customized by a developer. (Suggestion at end).
Where will they upload the photo? On the product page or in the cart? This definitely sounds like a custom thing I think. I don't know any ecommerce platform that does this out of the box.


I don't think shopify will do this. Look at extensions/plugins/addons that the shopping cart solution provides. If nothing found, look into nopcommerce. There's also Magento, which has loads of extensions.

Do you have developers on staff? If so, use a platform that is built on language they understand.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
