    EKM Powershop is really ease to use and the customer service staff are always on hand to help. There is members forum that allows members to help each other out. For the small subscription fee it is the best Ecommerce product on the market today.

    EKM Powershop is a good, reasonably priced system if you have basic requirements and don't mind your shop looking like everyone elses. It can be quick and easy to set up a basic shop using their templates, and their support can be quite friendly and helpful.

    On the other hand, I WOULD NEVER recommend to to any serious e-Commerce user. It is NOT 100% customisable as they claim, it is poorly documented, poorly implemented and grossly inadequate in functionality once you scrape under the surface. ...

    We've had The Funky Chef with EKM for just over a year, and i'd recommend them to anybody. Any website takes a lot of hard work. Its not a 'get rich quick' scheme. But the guys at EKM are always happy to help.
    The standard templates are a good starting point, which you can customize to suit your business. And there are lots more features that you don't get with more expensive hosts.
    For less than £20 a month, it must be the best value.

    Simply terrible service at EKM Powershop , unfriendly and unhelpful staff. They make things very difficult if you decide to leave and will not help with 3rd parties. Not recommended.

    We started using ekm about six months ago and are very pleased with the look of our store. The store was easy to set up and user friendly and the payment gateway easy to integrate, any support we required was quick and excellent, solving our problems with ease. We would highly recommend ekm powershop.

    I decided that EKM was quite expensive and migrated to Merchantmoms. EKM charged me for 3 months after I left, and I had to chase them in order to get my money back. My domain still had a year before expiring, so I told them that I will be looking into transferring it in due course. They never contacted me to let me know about the expirity date, and Nominet was asking for a ridiculous fee. I ASKED EKM TO RENEW, as the domain had expired but they could still renew it, but against my wishes they f ...

    Good on the surface but lots of hidden charges which you won't know about until you sign up for example it says £19.99 per month this is infact £19.99 plus VAT, if you want e-mail with your website name in that is another £2.50 plus VAT per month, if you also want to be able to track your visitors this is another £5 plus VAT per month. So you are looking at about £32 per month to have basic features. There was a £75 set up fee and a £24.99 fee to ...

    I moved my website to ekmPowershop 6 months ago and my sales rocketed! Its such a great platform for performance considering the low price.

    I cant stress enough how important choosing the right platform is. Some things arent quite as I would like them to work in the back end but hey its off the shelf and costs less than a curry for 2!

    SEO is superb - the main reason my orders went from a couple per week to dozens every day!

    CSV import is very useful for bulk changes, any probs and the supp ...

    I was looking to set up www.stuff4bikes.co.uk not knowing anything about websites I read a lot of reviews, ekms were pretty good with the odd few bad ones, I signed up being on a tight budget I opted to go down the design and build myself route using their webuilder package. I found the website building process very easy to use and instructions very clear,with new things being added regularly. They have a forum for members which is full of useful advice and tips submitted by other ekm member ...

    we run a small IT Support company and understand image is very important. We needed a shop to trade our goods and were quoted 'stupidly high' prices to set up a shop. By accident we came across EKM powershop and knew immediately that we had found the right place. It's very simple to start and it takes is a but of common sense and it's pretty much cracked.Simplicity in this mad complicated world!

    Having been on ebay for 5 years selling TV aerials and accessories we decided to open an online shop. We tried several companies and decided to go with ekm The shop is very easy to set up, you have complete control and the company is A1 for customer service. A very pleasant company to deal with.

    Amazing value. Easily intergrated around my custom design site using their tag system. Now in Beta test for their digital download digitalvault system for downloadable files. These guys are in tune with their customers.

    EKM Power Shop is excellent value for money, simple to use and very reliable. The customer service is excellent and the help that has been provided over the past two years has been truly first class.
    I would recommend EKM to anyone and especially those with little computing skills. Our shop liberette.com has been born and bred at EKM and we certainly look forward to working with them for many years to come.

    Bad point is if you pay someone else to customize it EKM don't appreciate it which is fair enough.
    EKM as a provider has not been a good experience for me... the product isn't bad but when I used and outside designer to customize my store EKM either banned me from using their forum or removed all my threads and posts it seems...
    I am now looking to switch providers and do not recommend ekmpowershop.com.

    Ok, so it has a lot of features. But my shop looks poor in my opinion. Really not impressed with it one bit. You do need coding knowledge to make your site look half decent. EKM's sites always look very poor in my personal opinion which has driven me away. I do not recommend www.ekmpowershop.com.

    After looking around we decided on this shopping cart - never having used one before. It was easy to use and has got easier with time. Google submission is excellent. For someone who is new to HTML, there is often a lot of jargon but, eventually, you will understand what it means & then the site is easy to use. The invoicing system within EKM is OK & they are introducing a PDF system where you can effectively amend the invoices - we are sure that will be really good when it is updated & finish ...

    As an ex-market trader with little or no experiance, EKM Powershop www.ekmpowershop.com was so easy to understand.
    And any problems you can ring them for instant answer's or email and they respond quite fast.

    www.conquest-computers.com, we have been using EKM for about one month now and I must say these guys have to be the best powershop around, the telephone support is of a very high standard.
    We can access our account from any internet connection.

    One of the features which we enjoy is you can upload as many pictures as you want and you can use this service to host in other places such as ebay.

    You can also edit the main page and put as much as you like on there however you do need some expe ...
