Why you should use PEEL SHOPPING rather than Prestashop, Virtuemart or Magento?

We have tried out all the solutions like Prestashop, Virtuemart, Magento and others. We came to the conclusion that it is always the same, you have to start by learning the language of the application prior to develop your website with this solutions. Balance: you loose months to understand how to structure a particular subject, how does the language of loops works, etc. .. required development skills that 95% of webmasters do not really master in general.

PEEL SHOPPING has an advantage over these solutions. Peel has native PHP code does not contain overlay application which prevents understanding.
 
PEEL SHOPPING certainly does not includes the best and most efficient tools available on the market, but contains almost all the requirements of online trading.
