Interchange is more of a development platform for Perl (Access/Filemaker-ish) with an e-commerce framework wrapped around it. Out of the box it does e-commerce fairly well. You can extend it (like anything) to do pretty much what you want; but if turn key is what you are after; Interchange isn't it. It is fairly powerful if you work within its conventions (think RoR), and I have seen some neat sites deployed quickly on top of it.
