    Dynamicweb
    For small/medium organizations where non-professionals should work with the system in everyday situations, Dynamic Web is a good solutions. Works well on Mobile. Not very complicated to add new shops/add new countries to the solution. I have never used the headless functionalities but they should be well working, as I have heard. it should be very easy to implement with Business Central, but I have seen it being more complicated than expected.

    Ecwid is absolutely perfect for any business that is looking to start out with online sales and mobile point-of-sale. Many times, business owners may have limited experience in setting up a website or point-of-sale. Having to spend on this expertise with a limited budget can be frustrating. Ecwid allows you to have great results even if you are a novice.

    • Recurring billing - ability to bill subscription customers without having to go to my payment gateway
    • Robust order management - very limited in managing orders, therefore I had to subscribe to a different software
    • Expensive customization - if you want to customize anything, it is very expensive

    The value given by Ecwid is unmatched. When combined with the ease of use of the product, it is a no-brainer to continue to use the product. The only thing that could cause us to switch is if some feature we needed which is not available which is unlikely based on the feature list we reviewed when making the decision to go with them.

    Usability

    Ecwid
    I gave a 9 instead of a 10 only because I haven't figured out a function or two. I believe it has less to do with Ecwid's overall usability and more to do with my own understanding and skill level, but regardless, it may also have something to do with the limits of Ecwid's functions.

    I have always received the support I need in a timely manner. I enjoy receiving emails every week on trending business topics and new suggestions. They often serve as a reminder for me to include new e-commerce tools into our strategy. And I've always had great experiences with reaching out to the support team with specific questions.

    We sell a product that requires certain controls to sell and most of the companies we researched had specific policies preventing us from selling on their platform. We aren't selling anything dangerous, they are parts of ammunition (the shell casings) and not entire ammunition rounds. Most other vendors restrict the sales of firearms and ammunition, but even when just selling a part used to create ammunition, we were still restricted. I'm not really sure why they restrict sales of products like ours from different vendors. Ecwid had no such restrictions and were happy to confirm that for us.

    • We have not been able to measure the ROI as of yet, as we cannot get out of the gate with customization required.
    • It can be implemented quickly for basic online stores.
    • Once the system is configured, ROI will dramatically go up.
