Rymera Wholesale Suite vs. WooCommerce

This plugin is great for a growing business that needs to move away from taking orders manually, but is also fully functional and comprehensive for businesses with larger wholesale revenue streams

[WooCommerce] does really well for simple stores that don't have a lot of products. It's really easy to set up and get products added so people can purchase them online. It's not the best for really complicated stores with products that need a lot of customization; you have to find 3rd-party plugins to add additional functionality to your store and sometimes those can create conflicts between one another.

• Easy to use order form

• Keeps track of product inventory, including details of product variations such as colors and sizes if required.
• Keeps track of orders so that the shopkeeper has one place to log in and see the status and history of orders to her shop.
• Creates shop-related pages automatically. Once you add one or more products, they will automatically appear on your shop home page. Additionally, pages for viewing shopping carts and for checking out are automatically created.

Incentivized

• Product Table for admins to update wholesale, cost and retail pricing on 1 screen. Would be more efficient and not having to open each product to update pricing.
• Product table to show percentage discount to wholesale users next to the price
• Product table column to show profit the wholesale user could make if MSRP price is set or sold at retail price.
• Product table to show more modern add to cart popup
• Product table to allow more customisation, like font size, font style
• Product table to allow to style add to cart button, like rounded edges, wire button, etc.
• Allow users to select product table background color
• Registration Form fields, please add the delivery address fields and checkbox to use physical address as delivery address
• Registration form, also allows user to change the text the end-user sees of the standard field names like STATE, not all countries have states, but have also have Provinces.
• Checkout screen, the users can manipulate and change the minimum order requirements after entering the checkout screen. No validation happening here?

• Because of how the Wordpress database is structured, WooCommerce isn't great for large or complex e-commerce sites.
• More out-of-the-box options would be nice within the base software.
• Because add-on plugins are developed by 3rd parties, sometimes you get conflicts that break things.

Despite very rare glitches, more connected to an excessive number of plugins, that affect the speed of the site, we are extremely satisfied with the platform, the ability to import and export products, even though we just export them, as we have our proprietary system for updating inventories. We love the ease of upgrading, enhancing, innovating, and the freedom we have to do whatever we want, which is a plus, when you consider Shopify can take down your whole store as they please, if they think you aren't abiding to their TOS or their ever changing set of rules.

I gave it lots of points for being a simple product that instantly gives you a store. Very intuitive and simple for the client to update or implement. Loses LOTS of points when you want to do anything besides just sell stuff (coupons, etc) then it makes you pay big money for the add-ons and makes it difficult and time-intensive to develop your own.

After 6 years using the product, I never had any issue with the support. The team is always nice and knowledgeable.

I've tried several wholesale plugins and always cancelled my subscription and gotten our money back. This is the first wholesale plugin we've stuck with. It's so easy and functional

We were pretty sure we wanted a WordPress site so that we had more control over the site itself, having been burned by third-party vendor sites before. The fact that WooCommerce integrates so well with WordPress was a big selling point for us. Magento would have been too heavy of a lift for our small dev team and we didn't want to rely on Shopify or BigCommerce (though all of those products could have their merits for other projects or clients).

• We are still setting up, our wholesale side store is opening next week, very excited, will only then know if it works well.

• Positive: low cost to start up, and allowed us to start selling right away.
• Negative: better plug-ins have a high cost of entry. For example if you want to do subscriptions you need a paid plugin for it.
• Positive: easily integrates with PayPal and Stripe.
