Overall Satisfaction with WooCommerce
We currently use WooCommerce, with sales disabled, as a product portfolio and information provider at our website. Our clients need to ask for a quote in order to buy it but we do plan to activate the e-commerce function in the near future. Our website is currently in 9 different languages and we offer our products in more than 90 countries.
- Quick and easy e-commerce website for companies of any size.
- Scalability and integration, being part of WordPress make adding new functions to your page a breeze.
- Easy integration with translation plugins, making a multi-language website easy to build.
- Some updates break the multilingual website, its necessary to rebuild permalinks after each major update.
- Speed, when having many categories/products your performance can suffer.
- Could include better multi-currency support out of the box.
- We should be able to manually order taxonomies
- Should include a way to hide prices and ask for a quote instead.
- Our page visits jumped from 4k to 80k.
- Its very SEO friendly, with the correct plugins and updated frequently.
- Combined with a multi-language plugin allows us to have all our languages centrally managed.
We chose WooCommerce over Shopify mainly for pricing, you can start using WooCommerce for free in just a few steps while Shopify will always have a subscription attached to it. That said, you will probably have to buy some plugins to add functionalities missing from the stock WooCommerce installation, but most of them are a 1-time payment.
