On NewsForge today, there's a new article that compares the eCommerce abilities of two of the more popular PHP CMSes out there - Drupal's E-Commerce vs. Mambo's mambo-phpShop.

Open source Web site content management systems (CMS) don't provide a full solution for the needs of many Web site administrators because they lacked a shopping cart. But thanks to projects like Drupal's E-Commerce shopping cart and Mambo's mambo-phpShop, things are getting easier: The shopping carts integrate directly into the core of the system, providing an acceptable shopping experience without requiring multiple logins, and they keep the theme of the Web site intact.

They compare and contrast the two, finding things they like about each. By the end, though, they seem to prefer the mambo-phpShop for a powerful system that's easy to get up and running quickly.

Thanks to PHPKitchen for the pointer...
