I recently used Storefront.net for a client. I wanted to provide a scalable solution that can grow into something corporate. Potentially connecting with Quickbooks/RMS -

I was NOT satisfied in the Design. I have not found too many people that know how to really make it look GREAT! Plus it was PRICEY if you get the plug-ins for like featured products, etc.

I have another SERIOUS client! but want to look at other options... This client likes what I have done before... but want to go to the next level any suggestions??

The best solution available currently is Magento, hands down. You can also check out Prestashop.

Things to look for are separation of design from the logic bits and scaleability, as you mentioned. There are some very large companies deploying sites with Magento these days. See http://www.homedics.com/

Here is the blog over at Magento that shows some really good stuff you can do with it http://www.magentocommerce.com/blog
Some screencast that further demonstrates what you can do with it http://www.magentocommerce.com/media/screencasts

You can do anything from a simple e-commerce site to a full blown multi vendor shopping mall of sorts. It has complete separation of design from the logic bits so you can design whatever you want. You are not limited at all by it. It is also multilingual and you can run as many stores as you want from the same admin panel.

hope that helps,
Nigel

I'm not sure Magento integrates with Quickbook, but NetworkSolution has. See http://ecommerce.networksolutions.com/. It's pretty cool.

I also want to do so as my customer feedback to me that they don't want to re-enter thousands of inventory and pricing from their accounting software into the ecommerce website.

I like the idea of hosted cart solutions. They do sooo much of the heavy lifting that you can focus on operations and marketing. That said, my two favorites are Volusion and 3DCart.

yep... Magento development is the best choice for any serious webshop. If you put all selection criteria next to each other, it will turn out that Magento is a fully-fledged eCommerce platform.

It's also a great technology as point of view SEO which helps your custom Magento website to gain high rankings in Search Engines like Google. It gives you Auto generated Google Sitemap, Meta for your products and category pages and much more…
