Shopify Reviews: 4.4/5 — Solid Choice

I like how easy it is to add/remove products, vendors and plugins. The shop's app market has everything you can think of to make an online business easy to run.

I dislike how some of the apps available have bogus descriptions/pricing. If it says "free to install", it's misleading. Put your price on there, since you cant use it without paying for it. It's a waste of time.

Shopify is a platform that leads e-commerce solutions in an easy and practical way, for which it works as an e-commerce engine, which allows you to create an online store without knowledge or technical expertise with just 3 simple steps. Shopify has all the tools with customizable templates and designs, and some functions for your website that allows you to add the products you want to sell online. In addition, we can add create discount coupons, view reports or integrate (If you have) your blog or create websites and blogs to your liking, track your customers along with their orders, accept different types of payments and currencies, among other benefits. Another of the options allowed by Shopify is that it offers to extend the functionalities of your online store, with more than 1,100 different applications -free or payment- with which to improve your site. Also noteworthy is the ability to keep track of accounting, inventory management, online marketing, customer service and reporting or social media. It has a variety of plans according to the budget availability of each business, starting with the Basic Shopify Plan for a price of $29/month up to the Advanced Plan with a price of $299/month. In addition to these plans, Shopify Lite plan, for a price of $9/month that allows you to sell on Facebook using the Buy button. It also accepts credit card payments. It also provides 24/7 support and price transparency. If you require a secure, easy-to-use and professionally designed platform to increase your online sales, Shopify is the solution. In my experience with multi-platform ecommerces, investing in professional tools usually results in savings in time, money and resources so I think Shopify is a great alternative to having an online store with maximum professional guarantees.

If you have a small budget and are looking for a free platform, Shopify will serve low-budget businesses, as Shopify requires that a good monthly sum of money be allocated to a single platform.

Shopify has allowed me to open virtual stores to my clients who own small and medium businesses or online sales stores, so that they can manage it themselves and follow it up daily so they can take care of and protect their interests, where my role is relegated only to technical advice and solving problems or doubts.

I liked the simplicity of the platform as well as the extensibility of the App Store.

Initially setting up the Shopify store has some confusing steps, that weren’t obvious.

Making an e-commerce store from scratch is hard, and Shopify is a quick way to get one up and running

Great free templates and lots of apps for customized features. Prefer this much more than Magento or bigcommerce.

I think it costs too much and there aren’t very many pricing options

One of the biggest pros is that you don’t need a developer to make your site a good one

Very straight forward and easy to use in order to set an online store.

Their policy regarding fraud charges SUCK. Supposedly, CC companies are to respond for fraud charges since it is not the owner or the business fault (and most CC have an insurance or protection for that) but Shopify will anyways take the money out of the store which lead to a lot of losses. On top of that the charge you a dispute fee.

It is a great online store.

I like that you can customize your site very easy and hassle free. If you get stuck the FAQ page is super helpful

Nothing really to dislike but the price. I think it could be less expensive

Not having to use a web developer

It’s the best E Commerce platform out there.

There’s not many good competitors and they hold the market like a monopoly

It’s just easier to build an e-commerce website with Shopify. Wordpress is too crazy and everything else just doesn’t work like Shopify does. I think Shopify’s success comes from the clean cut and easy building of a site and apps

It’s really easy to use! Our customers found it quick and easy to use to purchase our products.

That I wasn’t able to upload new products as fast as I would like to.

Outreach to customers, social media linking helps!

Shopify has been great for someone like myself who is new at e-commerce. So many helpful features! Very easy to navigate as well.

I would like some more tips and helpful articles to get someone new going and be up and running without much struggle.

Shopify has made it super easy for me to create a drop shipping store. It’s made me realize it’s for sure the best option out of all the other similar stores.

Among the things I like about Shopify, I can say that the ease to configure, update and sell the products is unique, it really helps to have an online store that has these properties because a user with little training can fill the content of the page. It is also very customizable, since we can change themes and be different from the rest of the electronic commerce, another advantage is the integration with other platforms of payment methods that make the interaction with the client easier.

I do not have anything that I can say that bothers me about this CMS, it seems to me that it meets the standards.

We use Shopify to sell products on the web, it is a very complete CMS that has benefited us in sales, we have installed modules for payments, shipments and notifications to customers, which are satisfied with the service provided and with little effort in the request of the orders. This makes the clients return and the company is profitable.

I like that there are free templates available and that you can customize those to fit the appearance of your e-store. Also, the free stock photos that are included in the subscription.

The difficulty of adding in shopping cart merchants.

Easy to use platform. Benefits of a company with excellent customer service.

I like how it’s relatively easy to use and user friendly

I don’t like the processing fee percentages

There are many benefits I using Shopify. Nothing else beats it.

I love how easy Shopify is to set up and add new products. There’s such a great variety of themes and with hosting included you can set up a store in just a few hours.

I wish it was a little easier to customize themes and add or remove features without knowing Liquid.

Easy to add new products, categories, etc. Dint have to wait for a developer to do it for us.

I love how easy Shopify makes it to customize my webstore. The back end options are fantastic and the stats are invaluable.

Per transaction costs are a little higher than I'd like.

I have a reliable website that looks good and allows my customers to easily shop and feel secure.

As a web developer with 3 years of experience. There's no other E commerce platform as easy to use like Shopify. What I like best in this platform is the ability to add products seamlessly categorizing them by adding tags in it. You can as well collect all your products and group them within a collection, by that you can select only what to sell when you try to embed it in your site. The integration of applications is as well easy as there are so many applications which were developed by companies and free lancers around the globe. You can find and use what you are looking for. You can as well add some snippet of codes to customize your themes

I think the payment gateway is such a hassle sometimes. Also the coupons are not that much developed but hey it's a great feature to use, it just lacks the customization which I need because some of our clients always use coupons for their products and events etc.

It solved some of our clients problem because of the apps available in their platform.

I simply like everything within this platform. This one of the best e-commerce platform I have ever used. You can do a lot of stuff over there and one of the best thing on Shopify is their App store that offers plenty of different and special apps that can fit to whatever you do. The system itself is very beginner friendly for first-time users and adventure users who like to code their own with HTML and CSS. But you don't need to know any coding to create your website and to create it really professional looking which make this platform really good.

I would say dislike word, not in a bad term thought. From my view, I wish they would open their payment Shopify for more country in EU and Asia so more users will be able to use their payment option because with it you can get much more information about frauds and better integration with other apps

With Shopify, I can create anything I need from one place and it would be very easy to use. I also like their coding system it's very easy and simple to use you want to add some CSS and HTML it's really easy to make. their free themes have very simple HTML and CSS behind it and it's really easy to code which is also a really good thing

Shopify is simple and user friendly- if you need additional functionality, there is a huge amount of apps that will meet your needs. I love the analytics and the ease of creating and managing a website.

I wished reporting was more detailed and easy to sift through customers to determine who is new and how they were acquired.

I can find a solution for the majority of my e-commerce issues. It is user friendly for new clients and easy to navigate. A novice can create a site and update unique needs with ease. As an agency, we are able to manage our clients through the partner portal.

I love how i can add my own products and how you can see how many views you get. I also love the fact they tell you what your customers are looking for.

There is nothing i dont like about shopify. Shopify is an amazing store builder i just wish that was a little easier.

Im solving having to bpay unexpected fees and things like that. Easier to manage and see the ups and downs of my business

It is a very easy platform to develop, with a very intuitive and flexible interface to use, it has integrated tools to work with social networks in an efficient and secure way, quickly and easily.

I'd love to be able to sync with the desktop accounting software, this would be great.

We avoid the loss of time by allowing us to create a web page quickly and easily, allowing the growth of our branch and the obtaining of great benefits through the online store fulfilling the purpose and standards raised in a reliable and without much effort, it's great.

Shopify is so easy to use. You have to be a little savvy about how the inside of a shop works, but there is so much documentation as well as a great forum to ask other users questions as well.

No much with shopify itself. I would say vetting the 3rd party apps a little more carefully would be a big help.

My past e-commerce shops have been hacked before. I feel like shopify keeps there back end up to date, I have not had any problems with Data loss.

Shopify is a marketing tool allowing businesses to enter the e-commerce world with little overhead.

Accessing third party apps within Shopify requires going down a rabbit hole, unlike Wordpress/WooCommerce.

E-commerce Optimization

1.What i like most about shopify is that you can st up your online store within minutes. 2. Shopify is very secured especially when dealing in online transactions 3. Their customer support is very efficient and always ever willing to help. 4. The have lots of themes which you could use to customize your site so it could be appealing to customers. 5. The give apps that can help boost sales. 6. They also have their own private payment gateway.

1. They don't have payment gateway for developing countries e.g Nigeria 2. You cant easily export blog post from shopify 3. Mailchimp which helps with email marketing has been removed from shopify. 4. They transaction fee charge is expensive

I use shopify to dropship and it has really brought profits for me

My favorite thing about Shopify is that it is always being updated and anyone can create an application for the platform. It’s open to an endless amount of possibilities for e-commerce stores and fills many market needs that amazon prohibits.

Shopify payments is awesome, but once you hit $10,000 in sales, there are some odd roadblocks. Hopefully this will be solved soon. As a result, most people use stripe instead.

Making websites is extremely easy now, almost no coding is required on my end. As a result, I can do many more things rather than wasting years learning coding and web design.

Easy to use, easy to set up with little confusion.

Price is hefty with so many other great options out there

Shopify works with so many other applications making its simple to add features to the site easily

I like how organize it is and how easy to set up the store. You can also customize the theme and how many products you can add.

The one thing I do not like is that I have to pay for recent notifications per month. I wish it was included with the plan.

This website helps me have a income and everything I do is part of me. I am trying to sell more products and get people to buy my stuff. Benefit is that it will make my site popular.

User interface and their pricing is very effective

There is nothing actually, Everything works perfectly

Editing HTML of the templates at first was a challenge but i later got used to it

Shopify has been the perfect solution for my e-commerce business. I absolutely love all of the analytics and inventory tracking and management functionality already built in - even on the more basic plans!

The third-party apps for additional functionality can get expensive.

Shopify has made tracking my inventory and tracking the source of my orders and marketing campaigns so easy!

All the items in your store are very well organized in a reasonable fashion and it has information about your sales and earnings. The interface is very user friendly.

What I didn't like about this software is that most of the products came from China.

It's by far the best dropshipping solution when it comes to the number of products.

Easy for shopper and easy for inventory control

Customer was have account with shopify . Would love if they could check out as guest if wanted.

Dont have to go live as much ,keeps track of inventory

I like that the complements help to launch new initiatives in a timely and profitable way, since there are new commercial trends every day and the best thing is to have something that is easy and safe to implement.

I would love to be able to configure custom reports in an easier way.

Shopify is used by our organization to promote online sales through its electronic commerce. One of the biggest benefits is the complements (which are many) that allow customers to quickly adapt to new trends and us to be at the forefront of technology.
