My experience with wordpress could not be better, it is light and can be easily run on cheaper hosting.

The best quality of wordpress in front of its opponents is really the huge community that makes us find plugins for practically everything we want to do, and even when we don't find it we can find someone who is willing to do it for an affordable price.

Plugins are constantly developing and can sometimes create some incompatibilities, which is normal, but the speed with which these problems are corrected is another strength of wordpress since all systems are subject to problems but quick solutions I find with wordpress.

You can build your e-commerce with it. But you have to be extra technical to build it. Needs improvements, definitely.

First off, WooCommerce is the first choice when it comes to fast e-commerce website. It is CMS-based, offers large library of extension for all and varied e-commerce demands, offers considerable customizability. Knows what the e-commerce industry needs. The thing that I like most about WooCommerce is it's large libraries of extensions. It's less likely that you'll ran out of options when it comes to customizing the function of your store.

Branding. When you want to customize your store to strictly follow your branding guidelines, this is where WooCommerce falters. There is not much you can do with the checkout page, cart page, thank you page, my account page and all. Extensions tend to be expensive. Even those that have simple functions. Common sense functionalities are not added. It's either you have to install a third-party plugin or buy there own extension, or code it for yourself.

I believe that WooCommerce has been a very great option for our businesses and it has allowed us to do everything we have dreamed and imagined to date!

The diversity of what you can build out using all the extensions, plugins, etc. Everything integrates with WooCommerce as well so it has been easy to integrate things like widgets from our review platform, signup forms for our membership, etc.

Sometimes, depending on what you are wanting to do, it can take a miriad of plugins to get the job done.

Instantly receiving notifications in my email for new orders/customers and being able to respond effectively has greatly improved client relations and boosted sales. The report analysis also has enabled me to keep tabs on sales.

For a frequent web Designer using WordPress, Woocommerce is a vital tool in ecommerce sites. I can pricing, shipping, payment integration, view new orders and my customers all under one platform.

Depending on the outcome one intends to achieve, you might need some extensions to run hand in hand with Woocommerce with most having a high price tag
