It's truly Massive plus seems to be that subcategories can have subcategories, something Quick.Cart still can't do (at least, I take it 2.0 can't either?)

I like the look of Quick.Cart much better though.

Depends on your needs.

Zen is a monster full of features and heavy on the server. Quick.Cart is very basic, simple, and easy on the server.

I find that Quick.Cart is a better solution for most small shops while Zen better for most large. In the middle, it would depend on the clients business process and needs.

Note that I have done several shops with Zen, but have recently discovered quick cart and am only now implimenting it in a few projects, but so far its a smooth operator.

I think Zen Cart is awfully slow in most cases. It is so huge and the images shown in products load slowly. I don't like it at all. I like the freshness in Quick.Cart and the usability. Only thing I worry is the support and possible attack against it. But I think no-one is safe nowadays.

Isn't slowness really dependant on the server it's put on? Or was that from a test with both carts on the same server?
