Personally, my favorite is X-Cart Gold. Paid product in the $200 price range. I've been using Magento a lot recently and like it and also InterSpire (new cart on the market but expensive - $1500+). It has all the featues you'd ever need.

Having used X-Cart since 1999 myself, I know it inside and out, and since it's a open source, I've had programmers modify the system to do extra things that I needed (like integrate an API to Comodo's SSL for automatic purchase and delivery of SSL Certs. We no longer use that system here as we had programmers write API for WHMCS, but for 2 years we used the X-Cart Module and it was perfect.

I have used Zencart in the past for a short period of time. It did it's job and was very easy to customize.

I prefer the simplicity of OS Commerce.
It's easily customized as well as easily manageable.

For small hosting companies they can use Google Checkout for this purpose

You may also try out zencart which is based on osCommerce and it's easy to install.

There are many good shopping carts, all of which have been named already. Depending on what you are adding to your site you could use something as simple as Paypal's cart, Google Checkout, or even Zencart. The best cart for your site won't be the same as the best cart for someone else. Figure out your requirements, then decide which is best for you.

I code alot of joomla sites and I am a fan of virtuemart as a result, especially with the new totally revamped version just about to come out.

I will recommend x-cart as well. Most of our clients are using x-cart because of its simplicity. It is very easy to use. We do not have to coach them on how to use it.

OsCommerce and ZendCart both are free and very useful
