Review the product description
Make sure the advertised features match the workflow you need. Pay attention to included modules, dashboards, integrations and user roles.
Verify compatibility
Check PHP, Laravel, MySQL and hosting requirements. Compatibility is one of the easiest ways to avoid deployment problems.
Inspect the demo
Use available demos to understand the user interface and workflow. Test important areas rather than judging only the homepage.
Consider customization
Estimate the changes required for your branding, domain, payment providers, notifications and business rules before you buy.
