Overall Satisfaction with Shopify Plus

We are a Shopify Plus Partner Agency. So we use Shopify Plus Daily in order to deliver advanced ecommerce sites, and custom functionality. It is our clients' primary CMS used in their organisations, and we develop and build on top of it. There are lots of functionalities that we use, and we code primarily in Liquid and Javascript.

Pros

  • Checkout Customisations
  • Secure Checkout
  • Uptime
  • Product investment - Shopify Plus are constantly innovating and improving the platform
  • Third party apps
  • Reliable base themes

Cons

  • Support - sometimes support lead times are slower than we'd like
  • More advanced Bundling functions
  • More advanced discounting functions
  • More advanced Subscription functions
  • Better support of payments in Qatar regions
  • Able to scale merchants' sites fast
  • Able to provide scalable technical foundation
  • Able to offer consistent Frontend Design
  • Able to increase clients' revenue YoY
It is extremely easy for merchants to get to know how Shopify Plus works. Comparitive to other platforms such as Magento and WooCommerce it is extremely lean and easy to operate, meaning clients who migrate over to it find it very intuitive to use. There is also a lot of guides and up to date information online
Shopify Plus offers a lot more scalable technical foundations. Magento and WooCommerce sites can be difficult to innvoate on top of and not have the security that Shopify Plus offers. Often WooCommerce sites are cobbled together with third party tools and plugins that can weaken the security and cause conflicts. This isn't ideal for brands that want to scale.

Shopify Plus is well suited to merchants who are transacting over £1million in revenue per year. At this revenue rate, it is more optimal in terms of transaction rate to move from Advanced to Plus. Also, for merchants wanting more advanced B2B functions, checkout customisations or markets setups they will need Shopify Plus. For smaller ecommerce merchants, standard Shopify plans would be better.
