Overall Satisfaction with WooCommerce
I use WooCommerce for both my personal business websites as well as for the websites for my clients. WooCommerce is my first choice for e-commerce software.
- Out of the box, WooCommerce gives you all the basics you need to get an e-commerce website up and running quickly and simply. Once you add some extensions, it's one of the most powerful e-commerce open-source software out there, and I've worked with all of the top software.
- Basic configuration of a store with WooCommerce is easy and quick to understand, the user-friendly interface really makes it a no-brainer.
- Thanks to the excellent integration with WordPress, WooCommerce makes extending easy with plugins that are really plug and play. Whether you need a simple basic or a complex advanced e-commerce platform, you can easily make it happen with WooCommerce.
- The user-friendliness of WooCommerce really makes it easy for my clients to administrate their online stores once I've built their site....my clients love it, and so do I.
- I would prefer to see more shipping plugins available in the core WooCommerce, as many of the shipping plugins are pricey. Sometimes my clients balk at the cost when adding more than 1 shipping option.
- I'd like to see some more options for the reports section, as more advanced reporting would be awesome...though there are plugins for many things, it would be nice to see the core product offer it.
- I'd also like to see the ability to customize design and layout without having to need additional plugins.
- WooCommerce has made it easy for me to provide e-commerce websites for my clients, making my work easy and quick, and making my clients happy with the easy administration.
- Whether using 1 or 2 products to 20,000 products, WooCommerce has scaled very easily to adjust for different sized e-commerce websites making ideal for most projects.
- WooCommerce makes it very easy for customers to make purchases, which makes my clients happy.
- BigCommerce, OpenCart and X-Cart
WooCommerce is just simply quicker to get an e-commerce website built and up and running than either OpenCart or X-Cart....overall administration is easier for website owners as well. WooCommerce allows much better customization as a self-hosted option to BigCommerce. I personally find WooCommerce the best choice with the most options, easiest setup, user-friendly administration and quickest turnaround as a website designer/developer.
