Editor's review
Zen Cart Jellyfish Data Feed is an Zen Cart contribution which assures the easiest export of your products into Jellyfish. You will be able to upload new file at any time from your Control panel with one mouse click.
Pros: Zen Cart Jellyfish Data Feed is a product data feeder to Jellyfish. Jellyfish is a site that helps. It is a comparison shopping site and provides pay-per-click services. It is one of the most effective sites in this category. Jellyfish is called the Internet’s first buying engine. While search engines can find reasonable shopping data, what really helps is comparative data on products. Zen cart, the publishers is providing a data feed/upload software through this application. To be on top of this kind of comparison you need to be able to update your product data as many times as possible and at any times of the day. The control panel in the application helps do that in a single mouse click.
The application is easy to use and configure of course. You can export selected category of products. You could include/exclude products marked “out of stock” or with zero quantity or zero price. While exporting you could strip off HTML from product names or from product descriptions. You decide how many products are to be exported to Jellyfish. Inline text recommendations can be included in the initial configuration. If you’d like you could set a default shopping cost for your products. Costs/prices can be set up in one of many currencies. Set the currency to be used when you actually export the product data.
You are able to customize the name of the export file and then upload files via FTP or e-mail. The application supports multiple languages. It is easy to use and configure and you could use GZIP for compression of the upload the files. The application helps you with third party sales channel tracking such as Google Analytics, WebTrends, OneStat, 123LogAnalyzer, Netmining etc. It helps validate feeds, feeds in XML only.
Cons: You would need to update your product details regularly to remain on top of the comparison pile. That takes quite a bit of effort.
Overall this certainly is a 4 star material with its rich set of features and ease of use and the link to one of most effective pay-per-click sites.
