Bulk Loading Product Data
Hello,
          Does DotShoppingCart have a tool to bulk load product data, or allow SQL scripts to upload data in one fell swoop?
We have 50,000 sku's.  Tried nopCommerce, but they used their .net admin tool to read one spreadsheet record at a time,
then update multiple database tables.   What SQL scripts could do in a matter of seconds, their .net tool would take weeks.

So, in your opinion, large amounts of data can be updated in seconds?
In other words, we are not talking a cursor that will read a record, write a record?

No, web UI just gets your file uploaded to the server where a background processor will upload the data into database. It might take a few minutes if not hours.
