Owner Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good if You are Using Wordpress" July 26, 2024 5.0 Pros If your focus is on Blogging and content creation using Word Press, WooCom is a great option, but I was not and have since moved to Shopify. Cons It wasn't easy enough for me and using it on WordPress, I didn't want to have to rely on a developer, so I moved to Shopify for something I could do myself. Alternatives considered [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce I did initially due to the web developer I was using, but I now use Shopify Review Source Zach W. Director of Sales and Marketing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Should you choose WooCommerce?" June 26, 2024 3.0 Pros Semi-"native" to WordPress environment. Great for beginners with a small inventory and a limited number of unique SKUs. It's a good choice for people who will outsource inventory management and/or their ecom-web-dev. Cons Ease of use is nearly non-existent, great for low-level customization ecom stores. Review Source GM George M. Manager Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "WooCommerce" June 26, 2024 5.0 Integrating WooCommerce with WordPress was the best decision, developers made Woo intuitive and easy to use for everyone. Pros WooCommerce was the best way for me to manage and sell on my website. It is easy to setup and and install on your WordPress site. You dont have to have a lot of knowledge to manage products and orders. Another important feature is its integration with different plugins for security, payments and SEO. Cons Having a lot of products and plugins that integrate with WooCommerce requires powerful hosting. Review Source LK Leslie K. Manager Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Review of WooCommerce" July 5, 2024 5.0 Pros Comprehensive Features: WooCommerce provides a robust set of features out of the box. From product management and inventory tracking to payment processing and shipping options, it covers all essential aspects of running an online store. The additional extensions available further enhance its capabilities. Cons Complex Setup for Advanced Features: While basic setup is straightforward, configuring advanced features and integrations can be complex. For users without technical expertise, this might necessitate hiring a developer or investing time in learning the intricacies of the platform. Review Source Natan M. Ecommerce Designer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to start, hard to optimise" June 13, 2024 4.0 Pros Is the 2nd fastest tool to create an ecommerce in less than 1 hour. You are in control of your checkout process and your money, and you are not forced to pay fees on every sell Cons You need to pay a lot of plugins or have your coders in order to optimise everything. There is a lot of things you cannot do without coding Alternatives considered [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce You are in control of your money and payment process.

Web Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Woocommerce is the 'go to' for e-commerce" June 19, 2024 5.0 Wouldn't go anywhere else to start building a shop and with literally hundreds of plugins available there is little you cannot achieve. Pros Easy to use with many inbuilt features to give you most standard things to design a shop. Cons First time learning curve is high, but once you done it once is much easier. Review Source Miguel G. Senior Web Designer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good, but it is not the best" July 8, 2024 4.0 Pros WooComerce is a good option if you are familiar with WordPress. I recommend WooComerce for WordPress users who need to implement fast an eCommerce solution. Cons Our website is shifting from WordPress to Webflow, so now we can use other eCommerce options. WooCommerce is good but is not the best option on the market. Sometimes you can struggle to get the things donem Review Source BT Bill T. Web Developer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Freemium ecommerce that racks up quickly." June 11, 2024 3.0 For simple ecommerce setups, WooCommerce is smooth and easy to use. Again, if you have any sort of custom (even conventional) shipping, coupons, or store setups, you're stuck paying for extras that add up pretty quickly. Pros For the most basic of ecommerce setups, you can't beat free for Woocommerce. It's made by the same people that make WordPress, so it integrates very smoothly. Cons If you want to do anything of any complexity at all, you're stuck either writing a bunch of code yourself or paying yearly fees on their plugins. Alternatives considered [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce Woocommerce itself is free and works within the confines of your own site, while Shopify forces you into its infrastructure, for better or worse. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best eCommerce Solution" July 15, 2024 5.0 Pros Easy step by step setup for online commerce. Cons Sometimes very rigid structure and steep learning process Review Source MNH Md Nirob H. Lead Generator Specialist Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Grow your business by WooCommerce." March 3, 2023 4.0 Pros I like the many things about WooCommerce but mostly like the categorization and mobile website management feature. This feature make my life so cool. I really recommend to evto use WooCommerce. Cons I never found any cons about the WooCommerce. But I really want to say that WooCommerce should add more features in mobile management. So user can maintain their website with mobile like PC. Overall I love the WooCommerce and I recommend to everyone to use it and make it more better. Review Source Neels V. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "For Ecommerce platforms, WooCommerce offers the best value for money by far." April 4, 2024 4.0 I have been building and running many of my own Woocommerce stores over the past 15 years, personally designing, building and publishing the stores as well as sourcing the products, managing the logistics, order processing and customer care. Over the past 5 years,, I have been doing the same for clients, including SEO and online marketing of the Woocommerce stores. Pros The basic Woocommerce platform delivers all the features needed to run a successful e-commerce shop for most industries or niche services. The thousands of specialist plugins that expand on this basic platform make it suitable for any specialisation you can think of. On top of it all, the platform is free and most plugins have a free tier that is sufficient for most situations. All you need to add is hosting, a domain, some WordPress knowledge and time and you can build a powerful ecommmerce store withouot the high monthly rates of competing platforms. Cons You need to invest some time in learning the basics of the platform if you want to build you own store. Alternatively, you can engage a WordPress developer at reasonable rates to build your site. Switched from [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Affordability and flexibility. SHopify is a powerful platform but can quickly become very expensive to run, especially when adding extensions. This is especially penalising in the setup hases of the store before the turnover can take care of the platform costs. I'd rather invest the high Shopify platform cost into ad spend that can directly benefit my business. Review Source Harry S. Digital Marketing Administrator Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good product but more free features needed" January 18, 2024 3.0 It's done the job but hopefully a better competitor arrives on the scene which will include more features for a fraction of the price (price includes for features not included for free). Pros The integration with Wordpress which is what we use for CMS. It's quite simple once setup, and allows a smooth customer journey from entering the store to purchasing. Cons The issues from updates; always have to backup (good procedure anyway) as well as the security bloatware required in order to setup/use WooCommerce. Switched from [Big Cartel](https://www.capterra.com/p/230161/Big-Cartel/) Fees and monthly premium, it was more profitable to host a store. Also more control of the process.

Vous pouvez choisir WooCommerce pour développer votre boutique en ligne, mais pour tirer le meilleur de cette plateforme, faites recours aux connaissances techniques d'un spécialiste. Pros Woocommerce constitue une plateforme de commerce électronique open source, conviviale, qui s'adapte aux besoins de l'utilisateur. Je le recommande à toutes les entreprises qui développent des activités de vente en ligne, surtout, celles qui disposent d'une boutique internationale. J'aime particulièrement la plateforme parce qu'il s'agit d'une solution e-commerce qui propose une large gamme de plugins pour créer des boutiques sur mesure, gérer le marketing des médias sociaux, mettre en place des campagnes d'e-mailing et bien d'autres fonctionnalités supplémentaires qui simplifient la vie aux e-commerçants. Woocommerce est optimisé pour le SEO, votre boutique peut donc apparaître dans les résultats des moteurs de recherche et attirer du trafic organique. Pour cela, vous avez besoin d'une bonne stratégie de référencement et d'utiliser intelligemment votre blog. De plus, la plateforme intègre des options de paiement exceptionnelles, vous n'avez plus besoin de vous gêner. Cons Woocommerce est incontestablement l'une des meilleures solutions pour développer une activité de commerce électronique, mais vous pourrez avoir du mal à l'utiliser si vous êtes inexpérimentés. Vous devez donc vous faire assister par des professionnels qui ont des compétences techniques pour bénéficier d'une boutique en ligne dynamique et optimisée pour le référencement. Cette aide vous sera d'une grande utilité, car la plateforme ne dispose pas d'un support client dédié. Switched from [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Pour bénéficier d'un outil CMS facile à prendre en main. Review Source FM Francesca M. Senior IT Tech Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A very good option with no coding setup" September 7, 2023 5.0 Me and my clients and my developer are very happy and familiar with woocommerce, so we are really happy to suggest this solution as the opportunity arises. Pros I like that anyone can setup easily his online store thanks to Woocommerce. Already in its standard installation is comprehensive of everything an e-shop needs to be ready. Cons Some interesting features are paid features from the official woocommerce channels. So, to be really competitive with other e-shop platform, woocommerce needs a certain number of third party plugins. Alternatives considered [PrestaShop](https://www.capterra.com/p/134005/PrestaShop/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce Is an integration to a website or blog system, so i thought it was more dynamic than a solution stricly made for selling online. Marketing for online selling works with blogs nowadays. Review Source MD Morgan D. Owner Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great experience using Woocommerce (and I've tried all the others!)" January 10, 2024 4.0 I have tried various ecommerce platforms, but none of them compare to Woocommerce. Whenever I set up websites for clients, I always choose Woocommerce for their ecommerce needs. Based on my extensive experience testing popular ecommerce platforms, I can confidently say that Woocommerce is the best option. I highly recommend it, especially for beginners or users with limited technical ability. It is powerful, comprehensive, and works flawlessly. Throughout all my usage, I have never encountered any glitches or disappointments. Pros I love how reliable, easy-to-use, and beginner friendly it is - in particular for an experienced WordPress user. Cons It is a bit on the pricey side if you want to add any of their featured plugins. Reason for choosing WooCommerce Easy to use, easy to manage, I actually ENJOY using Woocommerce and don't feel intimidated by it in the slightest (and I'm not a huge tech person!) Switched from [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Shopify was becoming too expensive and overwhelming. It was always a headache and got quite overwhelming at times. Honestly, too many options can be a bad thing! Review Source Elisa Q. Marketing e web designer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "l'e-commerce migliore per Wordpress" March 26, 2024 4.0 Woocommerce lo uso da ormai più di 5 anni. Un e-commerce semplice che tutti possono configurarlo. Inserimento prodotti e magazzino semplice e veloce. Personalizzabile abbastanza. Creazione di Promo e codici sconto con tutte le "regole" che vuoi. Una passeggiata per chi utilizza già sistemi simili ma è semplice anche per chi è nuovo. Pros Semplice da utilizzare, configurazione intuitiva. Si integra alla perfezione con wordpress. Gestisci il magazzino, spedizioni, resi e promo tutto in una piattaforma Cons Alcune sezioni sono poco personalizzabili. Switched from [PrestaShop](https://www.capterra.com/p/134005/PrestaShop/) dovevo integrare degli e-commerce direttamente a dei siti wordpress. era più adatto. Review Source Dayley S. Web Developer Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Highly recommended!" July 20, 2023 5.0 The customer service and helps boards WooCommerce offers to customers are excellent! There has been quite a few times I’ve needed assistance due to unique setups and every time they have provided a solution and a speedy response. Pros From start to finish, WooCommerce really does have it all. Right from the moment you install. And no matter how awkward your own business setup may be, WooCommerce always has a way to accompany it. Cons To be honest other than the app, it’s hard to fault WooCommerce. If you are building a Wordpress website, WooCommerce is definitely the choice to go with. But again, the mobile app needs work. Review Source AP Ashley P. Assistant Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One of the Most Diverse E-Commerce/Website Options on the Market" October 12, 2023 5.0 I believe that WooCommerce has been a very great option for our businesses and it has allowed us to do everything we have dreamed and imagined to date! Pros The diversity of what you can build out using all the extensions, plugins, etc. Everything integrates with WooCommerce as well so it has been easy to integrate things like widgets from our review platform, signup forms for our membership, etc. Cons Sometimes, depending on what you are wanting to do, it can take a miriad of plugins to get the job done. Switched from [GoDaddy Website Builder](https://www.capterra.com/p/182500/GoDaddy-Website-Builder/) Lack of integrations with GoDaddy Review Source Cristian S. Marketing specialist Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Avant-garde soul and design" September 21, 2023 5.0 Although it required patience and effort during the initial implementation, I was able to implement very advanced functionality for my store in a short time. In addition, its performance and security have allowed me to gradually scale sales. The community around this platform is very active and we find quick solutions to any problem with the documentation or discussion forums. I would definitely recommend WooCommerce to any entrepreneur for its power and flexibility Pros What I liked most about WooCommerce was its great flexibility and customization capacity. Thanks to its architecture based on plugins, themes and extensions, I was able to configure exactly the online store I needed for my business. I had the opportunity to test various payment methods, shipping logistics, theme designs, among other optimizations. In addition, its native integration with WordPress allowed me to take full advantage of the CMS's functionalities to create content and manage my store in a very intuitive way Cons What I liked least about WooCommerce was that since it is an open source platform, the learning curve is somewhat longer than other e-commerce solutions. It required spending extra time at the beginning to familiarize myself with all of its configuration parameters, database tables, and templating system. I also missed a larger library of natively available themes, although I realized that this is offset by the flexibility to create custom layouts Review Source DQ David Q. Web Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Woocommerce gets the job done, cheap! (unless you need a lot of addons)" December 14, 2023 5.0 We've used woocommerce for years to manage our inventory and sell our goods, merch, and services. It's been very helpful, particularly for anything we need to ship. Pros Woocommerce is enterprise grade software that is free/cheap. You can get started for free and buy the official addons for a relatively low price if you need them. If you have a developer like we do, you can extend the functionality for no extra cost. It gets the job done nicely. Cons Could have more out-of-the-box functionality. Alternatives considered [Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce Cheaper and more extensible. Offered us more control. Review Source Yosue V. Diseño Web Program Development Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "eCommerce facil de configurar inicialmente pero dificil de personalizar a voluntad " October 28, 2023 5.0 En general es un plugin de ecommerce muy bueno, te permite echar andar tu comercio digital de manera muy rápida y con muchas opciones de personalización, aunque debe mejorar en algunas cosas puntuales, cumple mucho y sin duda es mejor que otras opciones del mercado como Shopify Pros Te da los pasos a seguir para crear tu tienda online de manera rápida y eficiente, creas los productos de manera un tanto simple, puedes configurar los envíos, medios de pago, crear ofertas, hacer SEO en los productos y personalizar muchas cosas, desde la visual hasta la forma en que están organizadas las páginas, como la del check out por ejemplo. Puedes añadir un sin fin de plugins que ayudan a personalizar cada rincón de Woocommerce Cons Algunas opciones no pude personalizar sin usar código, como cambiar la opción de código postal como Obligatorio en vez de Opcional, como venía por defecto, eso me quito mucho tiempo probando plugins, hablando con el soporte técnico y tratando de simplemente añadir una frase que diga (Obligatorio) en la opción de Código Postal. El Soporte ayuda, pero no mucho, me redirigieron a sus FAQs y foros para revisar el problema, lo que en realidad no ayudo mucho Review Source TD Tim D. Director Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The most flexible ecommerce platform around" October 30, 2023 5.0 I'm a big fan of WooCommerce and use it for a number of client ecommerce stores. Pros WooCommerce is open source and built on top of Wordpress, so it is the easiest and most cost-effective way to add ecommerce to a Wordpress website. It is also incredibly flexible, with a huge number of plugins and code snippets that can extend and alter its fuctionality. Cons The user interface is a little dated compared to the likes of Shopify. It is still pretty simple to use, but it's interface does not feel as modern or look as clean as Shopify's platform. Alternatives considered [Magento BI](https://www.capterra.com/p/167535/Magento-Business-Intelligence/)[BigCommerce](https://www.capterra.com/p/131883/Bigcommerce/)[Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce WooCommerce is more flexible than any alternative and can often be a more cost-effective solution compared to the hosted platforms like Shopify, where sometimes you need "apps" for relatively simple features. Review Source Gilmer S. Marketing Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Satisfied from start to finish" September 19, 2023 5.0 Although like any plugin it can improve some aspects, I highly value its easy integration with WordPress, which is the CMS I use for my website, the great community and support available, and its basic but complete functionality to manage an online business in a simple way. It has exceeded my initial expectations to get me started in e-commerce and grow my reach to new customers. I will continue to learn tricks and customize my store to get better results month after month Pros I mainly liked the ease of use and integration of WooCommerce. Being able to create my products quickly and easily, adding images and details such as colors, sizes, etc. was an important advantage when managing my online store. The customization it allows on the front-end also allowed me to adapt it to the design and style I wanted for my brand. Another functionality that I valued was natively secure payments through gateways such as PayPal, which streamlined the purchasing process for my clients Cons What I liked least was the limited customization in the back-end and administration panels. Although you can modify the fields of the order forms, it is not easy to customize the structure and design of the administration area much further. This could be improved to give more advanced configuration options to those who require it. Another point to improve are some processes that are not very intuitive, such as inventory management requiring more steps than necessary Review Source DG David G. PHP programmer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "At the moment, I don't know of a better affordable ecommerce system." July 25, 2023 5.0 Pros I like the customizability of WooCommerce. With enough coding knowledge you can even write your own custom functions. It is a well built, well thought out system. Cons The only difficulty I have is setting the amount of stock. This part could be improved. Alternatives considered [Magento 2 Delivery Date Extension](https://www.capterra.com/p/10005406/Magento-2-Estimated-Delivery-Date-Extension/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce Magento for me would have been more complicated and much more expensive. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Web Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Woocommerce is the best tool for online stores" January 22, 2024 5.0 WooCommerce is great for creating an online store and getting it up and running in a short time with little money. It is my preferred platform to recommend to my clients. Pros Its ability to integrate with other tools, addons, extensions and its extensive documentation allows you to customize many elements of the online store. Cons WooCommerce's base design is not the prettiest and some of its own add-ons are very expensive compared to other brands. Alternatives considered [PrestaShop](https://www.capterra.com/p/134005/PrestaShop/)[Shopify](https://www.capterra.com/p/83891/Shopify/) Reason for choosing WooCommerce The portability, integration with methods and its customization capacity in both design, UX and code to add unique functionalities.
