Spree Commerce is widely used as an e-commerce platform by businesses selling products globally. Its primary use case is serving as a storefront for websites, allowing customers to make transactions seamlessly. According to user experiences, Spree is utilized by marketing and selling departments to efficiently manage their e-commerce operations. The platform also extends its functionality to HR departments, enabling them to post and track job applications effectively.

In terms of its core function, Spree excels in facilitating website transactions and providing quick access to payments. This has been highly appreciated by users who rely on the platform for seamless and secure financial transactions. Moreover, Spree's support for resellers and wholesale customers makes it suitable for businesses dealing with both physical and non-physical media items.

While Spree offers customization options, it's worth noting that technical skills may be required to fully leverage these capabilities. Additionally, some users have mentioned that the customization options provided by Spree are relatively limited compared to other e-commerce platforms. Nevertheless, the platform continues to be a popular choice due to its overall effectiveness in managing e-commerce operations at a global scale.

Highly Customizable Platform: Many users have praised Spree Commerce for its highly customizable platform that allows them to create visually appealing and unique online stores.

This makes it easy for businesses to adapt their online store as their needs change and grow over time. Whether it's adjusting product listings, adding new features, or expanding into new markets, Spree Commerce provides the necessary tools to support business growth and evolution.

Open-source Advantage: Developers find Spree Commerce particularly useful due to its open-source nature, which provides them with more freedom and control over the software. It also fosters collaboration within the developer community, enabling knowledge sharing and continuous improvement of the platform.

Limited Design Customization: Some users may find the design customization options on Spree Commerce challenging, particularly if they have limited technical knowledge or resources. This can make it difficult for them to personalize their online store according to their specific preferences and branding.

Lack of Innovation in Design: The design options on Spree Commerce may be limited compared to other e-commerce platforms. This can be a drawback for businesses that require more complex or unique designs to stand out from competitors and provide a visually appealing shopping experience for their customers.

Clunky Return Process: According to user feedback, the return process on Spree Commerce can be cumbersome and frustrating at times. Users have reported difficulties in initiating returns, tracking progress, and receiving timely updates. Improvements in streamlining this process would greatly enhance the overall user experience.

We use Spree for all of our website transactions. It is basically the shopping cart function that allows a customer to pay for goods, then the funds are transferred to our accounts. We do not use it for wholesale business, only eCommerce. It helps us gain quick access to payments.
  • Quick and easy access, nice interface when logging in.
  • Access to customer's info, easy to change user names and passwords when issues arise with login.
  • Easy to use for the most part - a lot of ways to search for information regarding customer's info.
  • Searching by email is difficult sometimes. There is no way to sort customer lists by most recently logins, etc. It can cause lengthy searches when trying to locate.
  • Issues with hackers, security seems low at times - firewalls need to be improved.
  • There needs to be more search fields for things like phone numbers, addresses, etc.
My favorite scenario is when a customer calls and doesn't know their login for our website. We sell snowboards, very seasonal, so people tend to forget login and password info quite a bit. No need to send a reset or anything along those lines - I can reset the password and immediately tell them the update. Super easy!

  • We've had some issues with hackers, Spree did a good job to improve security so that customer info is protected.
  • We can really cut down on phone time with customer info updates, allowing for us to on more important tasks
  • We can search for customers, previous orders, etc. With our old ERP system, we didn't have that option, we now have that on both Spree and Netsuite.
