2016 User Survey Results on Best OpenCart Modules + Our Favorites
Earlier this week, we asked you what is your favorite OpenCart module on Twitter and Google+. Given behavioral scientists Barry Schwartz groundbreaking work “The Paradox of Choice”, we decided not to go crazy with the options. Call us biased, but here is what we included:
1. SEO Pack Pro
2. Ajax Quick Checkout
3. ExcelPort
4. NitroPack
5. Other
Out of the available options it seems that NitroPack won the race. We never found a few of the “Other“ modules as the people who participated in the survey did not include a link. A few others, who did include a link cited XML Import Pro, which seems like a pretty nice module by the way.
We definitely believe surveys are a great way to interact with the community. We will continue experimenting and probably should ask people to reference a link in case their opinion is outside of the scope of the available options.
