Overall Satisfaction with WooCommerce
I have implemented WooCommerce to manage multiple stores on our own WordPress multisite network of more than 1500 member blogs. Through our featured store sites, we sell both physical goods and digital products. I have also installed and helped maintain WooCommerce stores for various other website clients selling a variety of products. WooCommerce is now my preferred e-commerce plugin for any WordPress sites I develop. Using WooCommerce and its various add-ons, I am able to quickly build out an online store and easily manage product inventory and sales.
Pros
- Quick and intuitive install and configuration.
- Sales tax management.
Cons
- Shipping fee management when drop-shipping from multiple manufacturers.
- Template customization requires technical capabilities.
- We have easily increased product offerings with WooCommerce.
- Additional plugin was required to export QuickBooks-compatible sales reports.
I maintained our online store using hardcoded Paypal shopping cart buttons for years. I have also used the MarketPress e-commerce plugin for WordPress, and currently, maintain one client store using the eStore plugin for WordPress. WooCommerce is far superior to any of these solutions. Any updates to our Paypal storefront required programming skills, and the checkout experience directed customers to Paypal to complete their purchase. The other two WordPress plugins lack the features and ease of use that WooCommerce offers.
