I have quite a bit of experience using it over the last year or so. 

1. It's very easy. A web based admin just has you fill in the blanks and
it does the rest. Doing this you can make the cart very basic or very
complex. 

2. There are a few templates included in it but you can change quite a
few things to make it look however you like. Just depends on yours or
the customer's design ability. 

3. I have not used it with CF but MivaScript (the language it is written
is) is VERY similar to CF. You should have no problem at all as long as
you just include the miva pages in your CF templates. 

Watch out for the support though. Miva used to offer support to anyone
who used it no matter where you hosted the site. Now they either have
the webhost offer the support or you pay per incident to have Miva help
you. They do have a very broad , free, KB that you can use and a few
user groups on Yahoo if you get stuck.

Subject: SOT: Miva Merchant


Anyone using Miva Merchant?  I have a client that wants e-commerce at
"no cost" and I have a few q's about this product:

1. How difficult is it to integrate without any knowledge of the
product?

2. How customizable is it (look and feel)?

3. To what extent can you use ColdFusion?

Any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated.  HostMySite includes
Miva with a $40 account, so it sounds like an inexpensive way to get set
up.
