### "Too high and almost unfair pricing and way behind in frontend"

November 5, 2020

4.0

in backend its good, your documentation about frontend is way incomplete but a dotnet developer can understand stuff, moreover front end is way behind in 2020 and the default theme is trash without ajax filters, atleast you guys should put ajax filters within the default theme. Wildcard package must have package to develop atleast 200 stores and it must be around 500, in such pricing it will sell more definitely, clients dont ever want to spend 250 on a product they already pay 4-5 hundred for, and they mostly dont care if u guys have a link in the footer.

Pros

Its easy to setup for normal purposes, very sound in security and backend architecture

Cons

Frontend is missing the most wanted ajax filters or latest frontend frameworks, i mean everything is built so well the frontend is not nearly even half to it. 2nd most hated thing is that when we like to remove nopcommerce coopyrights link you guys charge us unbelieveably, we develop and design stores using your framework in like 300-500 usd on avg and you guys are charging us 250on one single liscense for just a single store, and for mul;tiple subdomains u charge us like 1000 and then the server removal key. Dear managers the truth is we put your store mostly on any dotnet hosting like interserver, smarterasp etc or sometimes on aws or azure, changing the domain is normal for us but your logics are really kind of stupid here, i dont understand how can we even think to buy a single liscense when we are developing multiple sites every month, then we also woulkdnt ever put them in subdomains, and do u think we have servers? no never we dont own servers at all they are expensive and we are just indiviual developers working as freelancers mostly, do rethink about your pricing plans. You guys should understand that an affordable product sells best, for one site u can come up with kind of annual package, say like 20-25 dollars, or just one time fee of up to 100 but 250 is too expensive, the other thing is that your wildcard ap\[ckage is just useless, we cant put all our clients on one domain ever, every one has their names definitely.

Reason for choosing nopCommerce

because it was open source and because it was written in dotnet

### "Best and easy to use shopping cart "

December 20, 2017

5.0

Pros

Being an eCommerce consultant, I have come across many eCommerce platform since 2003. I found nopCommerce is one of the powerful ecommerce solution for the store owner. Be it is simple store or multi-vendor or multistore set up, development and management is super easy. Its plugin based architecture, unbeatable. The new version of nopCommerce 4 is on Asp.NET core 2, with this new release they have improved significant amount of performance on their shopping cart. Moreover this is complete free-to-use. Store-owner can use this full range of software without any sacrificing the features for complete free. A nominal charges will be applicable for copy right removal.

Cons

I have gone through their reporting part and I found they need some improvement there. I hope, with their next releases they will improve this part.

### "Long time user of Nop and will always use it"

March 23, 2020

5.0

Love it

Pros

The most important thing for me and my company is the ability to integrate with this software and customize it. We print custom t-shirts and we have created numerous "fundraiser" functions where orders get placed on our website and we know exactly what we need to print and order. Also, our customers can view the progress of their fundraiser real time. Also, the support is fantastic! They are very active on their forums and on Github. We've been using their software since 1.9 and will never leave. We've tried other platforms, but non compare to the flexibility of Nop! The next most important thing is their uncanny drive to STAY relevant in the coding world! They are always right there to adopt the latest platform!

Cons

When creating plugins there can be some re-work on custom plugins, BUT they provide great support to help through it.

### "Easy way to maintain a website"

October 8, 2020

4.0

I really enjoy working with NopCommerce. It's very intuitive and I can easily find my way around and figure out where I need to be to accomplish my goals.

Pros

It makes customizing and maintaining a webstore pretty simple. There is lots of customization opportunities for anyone wanting to get down and dirty with changing and making the software their own.

Cons

Each plugin and widget costs money, so to do a lot you can really wrack up some additional charges you might not have counted on in the beginning. The basic software is good, but if you want to do more with it all of that will cost you.

### "Great eCommerce for all small to large size application"

July 13, 2017

5.0

we are working in nopCommerce from more then 5 years and we have developed more then 100 sites using nopCommerce. the main benefits is its open source so we can customize nopCommere as per client needs easily also as its pluggable we can create plugins so its easy to upgrade to new nop version.

Pros

The best thing is its open source complete eCommerce solutions and it's using the very latest technology of asp.net on each new version release. Also, its support pluggable architecture so user can add required extension or create customer plugin to add custom required functionality. Source code is well structured. Its easy to upgrade and it provide all features that eCommerce application should have it. Another great things is there is lots of free plugins and theme are available for nopCommerce by its solutions partners.

Cons

I am little bit facing performance issue on large-scale application but on each & every new version release it improving the performance. And this is not well known eCommerce solution as compared to others so some user are hesitate to choose nopCommerce as eCommerce solutions.

### "Internal IT equipment and services ordering"

March 23, 2020

5.0

Pros

we found the implementation of this software very seemless, the plugin system allowed for all of our customisation. as we are using it for 5k internal users instead of payment we implemented a manger approval workflow which is excellent over our old system this reduced the support and development effort by 95% and the business now have total ownership of the solution. we extended the systemwith the following custom plugins: 1. Azure AD Authentication 2. Custom payment method to do manager approval 3. Custom widgets in the admin area for the above 4. Custom pages in the admin area to help the service desk manage the solution

Cons

only con was upgrading from V4 to 4.1 as there were a few changes which broke the plugins but it was worth the trade off to be on the latest version

Reason for choosing nopCommerce

because it was opensource and .net based so it fit with out development skill set

March 23, 2020

5.0

Having a work experience of more than 3 years in development, and from the beginning of my carrier using nop commerce. I can go on and on praising nop commerce. But thanks from bottom of my heart.

Pros

For developers its really big help to start any project using nop-commerce as base. My Company has three softwares build on it. I MeSelf have build 3 personal application for few friends and family members. Can't repay nop commerce what they given to developers community. Saying because I've tried building a project from scratch its really a big pain.

Cons

I just didn't like the 4.1 version of nop commerce coz its too heavy for any hosting provider, except azure and that's too costly, for a local company.

Reason for choosing nopCommerce

Never felt necessary to find any alternative to nop commerce.

July 18, 2017

5.0

It is completely flexible and can be customized according to the needs of each store.

Pros

Complete support from nopCommerce Team, good documentation (many languages available). It has a lot of tools that help us to customize any store: Flexible and responsive design to be compatible with mobile devices (Apple iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows, etc.) Multi-store operation support Can handle multi-vendors for drop shipment operation Products classification in categories and manufacturers Categories can also be fully nested to any desired level (sub-categories) Products can be assigned to more than one category or manufacturer Purchase on one page Buy anonymous Gift Certificates

Cons

The main problem that nopCommerce has is that not many people know it, so it is difficult to find developers who know how to use the platform, but only need to spend some time to learn how to use it

December 21, 2020

Pros

Utilizzo Nopcommerce dalla versione 3.40, ora sto per lanciare la nuova versione del mio sito eCommerce con la versione 4.20. La piattaforma è stabile, ricca di funzionalità e a parer mio migliore delle altre più note. Mi reputo fortunato, in quanto l’agenzia che segue da 20 anni il mio progetto eCommerce (Weblink di Varese) dispone di validi sviluppatori che sono sempre in grado di trasformare le mie richieste in nuove funzioni per il mio sito realizzate alla perfezione. Sconsiglio Nopcommerce a chi vuole fare un piccolo eCommerce.

Cons

Che a meno plugin rispetto ad altre piattaforme
