For all company sizes, as long as you want to develop your online sales and increase your market share (SMB, SME, Large Enterprises, etc.)
Anyone looking to build and grow their online presence. Whether you’re a self-creator, small business or large organization, you can do it all with Wix.
The ease of use in everyday situations, the stability through upgrades and the easy of customizations for the front end are top notch. Also the ease to integrate a tone of great themes and modules.
All countries aren't installed in the localization section of the admin dashboard which will hinder those buyers from the excluded countries from completing their transactions.
PrestaShop supports working with two design sites: Envato and Templatemonster. At Envato, I downloaded a great template for myself, perfect for my tasks.
Graphical statistics have a terrible layout. Most of the screen is occupied by visual trash.
Prestashop is easy to use, it does not require great knowledge to install. You can start with free templates and as a basic user you have great options.
The platform is too heavy, the server will constantly crash. For those who are thinking about this CMS, I would recommend buying a hosting no cheaper than $ 100.
I so much love its themes because they're so elegant and responsive on all devices. Prestashop also has some nice plugins which are free then i love its product image zoom feature.
If you don't engage the right person for the development, could have some problem when you update the core. Community not has much engaged than other platform.
It was my first experience building a website and everything worked like a charm and left me really happy with the final result.
Ve had several malfunctions with it in the past. M scared to edit and delete old information on there just because it screwed up the booking button and clients couldn’t schedule.
M extremely happy with what is offered, the ability to pick it right up with an easy to use interface, and the customer service is also high quality as wel.
There needs to be more -- and better - quality -- add-ons available. Those with terrible reviews make Wix look bad; more should be done to weed out the awful options.
Accessible to anyone who has a little interest and commitment. Enables the creation of very professional websites, with an excellent image bank and templates.
It was often crashing on customers who would try to buy online. This resulted on many loss sales or issuing discounts to clients for their “inconvenience.
I most like the program's ease of use, cost-effectiveness and the varied and sophisticated designs that are available to those who work with it it.
Absolutely awful customer service and support when things go wrong (which they do, daily).
Eva: My name is Eva. I work as a digital marketing manager at QAD. We have ERP and Supply Chain Systems. It's a software company from the States. I have, well, experience as digital marketing manager in paid advertising and e-commerce for the past eight years, and I am giving PrestaShop a rating of five stars. WooCommerce with WordPress, it's a plugin for WordPress, and I also used Magento, and I honestly did not like any of those. WooCommerce and with WordPress is really, from my perspective, not a very practical software for e-commerce, and it lacks a lot of important features like back office, order management, and things like that. And inventory management, for instance, is a key aspect for e-commerce companies. And Magento is quite honestly, you cannot even do proper SEO with Magento, and I also missed a lot of main features that I mentioned before. At the time, I was working for a company that wanted to grow very quickly, and in order to scale the business, we needed a software that was really useful, had the main functionalities that we were looking for, and that was able to grow with us, and so that's why we decided for PrestaShop. Initially, we had a web developer help us with the installation, and we also customized PrestaShop for our needs, but it was very, very intuitive to use. I remember setting up all the content for the products that we had. We had a very large product catalog. It was very easy. Also, for SEO was very easy, and we were immediately able to use the main functionalities without training basically. The recommendations that I would give that person is to look for the main functionalities and features that you need for your business to think about the situation that you're currently in. If you want to grow in an accelerated way, you need to look at the software that it helps you with your scaling of the business, and if you don't... And also to think about the fact that you're investing in the future of your business, because what we saw when we used PrestaShop was the fact that we had four times more sales than before, because basically we had more functionalities with the software. We were able to use the software to grow very quickly and to help our customers. So, it was really important for us at that time to use the software, and it helped us a lot, and what I would really always consider is two things, do you want to scale your business? At what point are you in the outlook of your business, and what kind of features do you need?
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
