I need advice with e-commerce engine which will allow create multisite internet-shops.
(When client have several shop in his e-commerce net)
With such functionality:
-
Shops have same design templates
-
Each shops which of them have own administrator, who can fill his
shop separately with content. -
Gloabal admin can givestop rights to admins of shops
-
Users have single registration in the sistem, so being registered in
one shop, you can use this login in any of them.
I have experience with ShopCart and VamShop (russian osCommerce fork), but both of them have single shop functions, and if I will setup several copies of them, I can solve tasks 1 and 2, but will meet problems with 3 and 4.
What solutionaproach can you advice for me?
PS: It’s important, that it must be PHP-based engine.

You may try PHPMall and Kodemall. Both of them supports multi-vendor features, and bot of them are not cheap. I purchased PHPMall last year, and I personally didn’t like the codes was constructed (not MVC, and many deprecated functions). It is working though, I just found it hard to modify because of the “dirty” programming style so I decided to create my own. I haven’t tried Kodemall, which is based on OpenCart ecommerce script.
Magento will be a good choice to solve your problem.
For its community version, requirement 1 and 4 is already there. And an extension installed will easily give you the solution for 2 and 3.
And its enterprise version and professional version will contain these functions but charges for license per year.
PrestaShop 1.5 will soon be released.
As you can see on the roadmap, the last missed feature is the Multi-store management.

So i suggest you to stay tuned.
P.S.: An alternative is, however, Magento.
EDIT: Prestashop 1.5 final version has been released: DOWNLOAD
