If your products don't have attributes (sizes to choose from, etc), you don't have a ton of products, or won't change them that often, then I would stick it through. Magento is a nice cart, and I really like the features it has out of the box. You have to keep in mind that the catalogs I am considering it for right now will have at a very minimum of 3,000 products and some may be up to around 50K. With that kind of volume, you can see how just adding a few minutes of prep time to each product entry can be a problem. Email me more details about what you farther in law manufactures and I'll be happy to make an informed recommendation. Dylan, my advice would be dependant on what you are going to do with the cart.

I am setting up an online store for my father-in-law's manufacturing business. I made it through the install, but I haven't started on the design or adding products. Do you suggest I get out before I have invested too much time into Magento? I just started working with Magento. I am setting up an online store for my father-in-law’s manufacturing business.
