Drupal Commerce vs No commerce module for simple festival ticket sale site
Hello all,
For an upcoming project, I will need to incorporate commerce capabilities into Drupal for the first time, so I am investigating my options.
Thing is, the new site I'm making will not be a full fledged e-shop with a lot of product listings etc. The requirements is to sell:
- Festival tickets / passes
- Hotel bookings near festival venue
- Festival pass + hotel combos
My question is as follows:
Though it interests me to familiarize my self with Drupal Commerce, would DC be overkill for the above use case? Would I be better off simply using redirects to Paypal? As far as I know, Paypal can redirect back to a landing page in the original site, so that the user experience is not disrupted, right?
Currently there is no requirement for merchandise sales, so I'm thinking a cart would be unnecessary ("add to cart" does not make sense for festival tickets and hotel bookings). I would just need a one step checkout process.
I guess customer tracking and stock management (how many hotel rooms left) could be a motivation to use DC, but I guess the site owner can track orders via their Paypal Control Panel too, correct?
Any input would be most welcome.
Thank you in advance
P.S.I have posted this also in the Drupal Groups discussion board, but haven't received any feedback yet.
