Easy To Use and Configure but Code Heavy
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates WooCommerce from other similar products?
WooCommerce is the leading e-commerce platform plugin for Wordpress in the world - so naturally we gave it a look and liked it a lot! Integration was super simple, and the wide ranging availability of plugins that integrate makes it easy to find a solution for customization. The cost is nominal in terms of how robust the plugins are, and the UI is pretty simple to navigate and use.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The simplistic ability to "plug-and-play" for overall checkout features. No back-end coding is required if you're not looking to do extreme customization of the interface or payment processor.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The plugins are extremely code heavy, and they will slow your website down to an extent. There are ways to implement customized JS code to force browsers to not load all of the code on pages that aren't e-commerce related - which we highly recommend doing. You can just search online and there are various forums that people have posted helpful code to do this. Also, if you're wanting to do any customization of the interface, you'll have to create child pages and go from there. However, over time those child pages become outdated as WooCommerce updates, and it becomes a bit of a pain to find the updated code and replace in the child pages.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Overall, WooCommerce lives up to it's reputation as being the most liked and integrated plugin for ecommerce on Wordpress in the world. We recommend using it and even customizing it - you just have to understand there will be a little long term work involved to update and maintain it.
Pros
- Performance Enhancing
- Unique Features
- Caring
- Security Protects
