It's well suited for simple e-commerce and basic inventory management needs.

Cart.com
The Multi-Store eCommerce platform is by far the strongest feature. Anyone who has a direct to consumer business and a business-to-business side should use cart.com. Also, if you plan to grow to a 7 figure business, it is best to start and stay with cart.com because Shopify will get ridiculously expensive as you grow.

  • The integrations are good, but not great. Shopify is really good at integrations.
  • Tech support is fairly slow and it can take several days to a week to get a simple question answered.
  • Stronger reporting. It hasn't changed in the last 4 years.
