[ThirtyBees Versus OpenCart]

Hi Everyone,

New person here, and to be honest I don't even have ThirtyBees installed.

I am very close to, if in fact at the point of, abandoning an attempt at installing OpenCart 3.0.3.1.  I made really good progress, but there seems to be so many nagging issues preventing me from saying "It's Done!", that I have reached the point where there is I guess what I would call a trust issue with OpenCart.   As in, is it really fixed, what might crop up later, if I breath wrong, how much gets broken, etc..

So, based on recommendations on the internet, I find myself at ThirtyBees, and before I start I just thought I would check in and ask some simple up front questions like:

Is it any easier than OpenCart.
Is it coded/documented better than OpenCart.
Does it actually work?
Do the add-ons actually work?
Are there crazy nagging issues that plague everyone, and no one knows how to fix them?
Etc.

I am just trying to get a feel for if I am jumping from the pot into the fire, or if things work better with ThirtyBess.

Thanks in advance,
Jim
