From my own experience, using the free version of the program, you will be able to do wonderful things. This program is for people who like the simple software, elegant and efficient.
Sometimes there is the occasional time where you may have a critical error. The worst thing that can happen to you is that you don't backup your website and then you update and it all goes away.
My experience using Wordpress has been super great in building a good-looking website in only really a few hours. The Wordpress plugins are also a really great implementation.
Extremely inconvenient for first-time users. Heavily text-based and can be confusing for learners to navigate through it.
It is super nice that you can turn a free website to what you want. I also like the fact that developers can make money either setting up websites for companies or designing and coding layouts.
Defective plugins can be a problem when using Wordpress. In some cases, plugins can slow down the performance of a website, and sometimes become a gateway to a hacking attack.
Wordpress is great because you have everything needed to build a great website right out of the box. It's very simple but allows for content management and has a nice development framework.
WordPress sites are vulnerable to hacking, attacks and spamming and often you only learn this once you've been attacked. More should be done for security.
With cs-cart, I believe my website offers same or better experience than amazon or any other global marketplaces. I am truly thankful to the amazing cs-cart development team.
We were 90% on board and ready to pay to use this software but every time we dove further into using the software a new problem would occur and support would disappear.
CS-Cart was so easy to install and configure, and great value for money without compromising on any of the key functionality, quality and reliability we needed.
Worst customer support experience in my life. They seem to have very little concern for your needs.
It is very agile, robust, secure and intuitive for new members. Cs-Cart team keeps on top of all the latest developments and therefore this solutions is very powerful, even just out of the box.
Refund functionality does not substract the amount from accounting. Though I created a work around for it but its a major problem.
I would recommend without hesitation. The price is fair, customer service is fantastic and the software is solid.
A little bit difficult to get the hang of the design aspect. If you're used to using blocks to design, it'll be easier.
Jonathan T.: Hi, I'm Jonathan. I am the owner of a creative and web design studio, and my review of WordPress is that it's five stars. Prior to WordPress, boy, I have used all sorts of different things. Different builders built into other platforms, like Kajabi or Wix, Squarespace, all of those, even some old ones back in the day, like Homestead, and even just straight on up HTML. I've moved all of my development into WordPress because it is just easy. It's a heck of a web standard. Runs, I think, over a third of websites on the internet. There's a plugin for everything, so if it doesn't do it out of the box, somebody else has probably thought of that already for me, so it's easy to plug in new features that I need. I've really found my groove with a great theme and builder combo that I can use quickly and easily to have great results. WordPress, well, back when I got started, there was a little bit more to it years and years and years ago. But these days, boy, it is easy to get started with it. There's so much more built-in functionality right out of the box, and I'd say most people can get going on a WordPress site. And then as you learn more, you can add more functionalities, you get more comfortable with it, and then you can really make some great stuff with it. If you are considering using WordPress for your business, I'd say take a look at what you need your site to do. Is it just that front-facing kind of brochure site? Do you need membership? Do you need people logging in? Do you need to sell things? All of those are, of course, possible with WordPress, but you just need to understand what functionalities might you need to add in with plugins, themes, and all that things. And then also consider finding a good builder that, depending how your brain works, can make designing pages in your site a whole lot easier, more straightforward, and there are some pretty powerful tools out there that can really make it a breeze.
Speaker 3: Hi, I'm Brandy, CFO of retail. My company has reviewed CS-Carts. I give them a four-star review. Click below for more of the review. I use CS-Carts for online store to manage it and get insights in web traffic and sales statistics, set up commission rates, customized subscriptions, and then create promotions for vendors and also get feedback. I like that it's the one time fee for CS-Carts, unlike a lot of the others. They also have a lot of options and some themes. Also, you can add themes. They will translate, import, export. They have a manual that goes over just about anything that could possibly ever go wrong. And also, it's on your server, so that's good. And I like their layouts a little bit. The only things I really dislike is it can be hard to upload videos and it also has let vendors do blog posts on your main websites. And you can spend a lot with your add-ons.
