Overall Satisfaction with Shopify

We use Shopify for our online e-commerce store. We use it throughout our whole organization. It's solving the business problem of having an easy e-commerce solution. The back-end system makes it easy for everyone to use. We have a bunch of Shopify sites for each of our brands that our company uses.
  • Easy back-end system
  • Beautiful and customizable templates
  • Collecting payments
  • I'd like to see more free templates that are similar to Squarespace
  • Better designs for websites that only have 1-3 products
  • Make customization easier for non-tech savvy people
We used Volusion for a while, but switched over because Shopify was a lot easier to use. It has an easier check-out process, better templates, easier management of products, and is user-friendly. Squarespace on the other hand, we still use because we think it's better when we want to highlight one product.
Shopify is good if you have a lot of products and are looking for an e-commerce store. It handles many products better than squarespace, and is easier to manage/learn than websites like volusion. It's a great website for starting off. It feels less appropriate if you only have 1 product - use something like squarespace instead.
