The other thing with actinic, is that you have to update the site using a program on your PC, which then uploads the files to the server. This might seem like a great idea, but what happens if your computer decides to die? You've then got to find another one, install the actinic catalogue software, set it up etc.
Yes, another thing to bear in mind is that stock control is not automatic, so in other words, you have to download the orders from the server, Actinic then updates the stock levels, then you have to update the site again on the server. However, there is a plugin offered by Mole End which automates this process.

Furthermore, Khalid's point above demonstrates the importance of ensuring you back up your site on a regular basis to an external hard drive!
