Conversion rate improved by 50% over our self-hosted, self managed previous site. It's not cheap but the support is excellent. ----- ### "No reason to not start with Shopify" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 June 2024* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how you get hundreds of features for really low price and I see no competition to that. Recently Shopify added even more value with AI. It speeds a lot of things, I can quickly fill different fields, email automations, product pages with it and with no additional cost. Also they are expanding with e-mail automation and I don't have to use 3rd party software for e-mails anymore, which saves me even more money. > > **Cons**: The only thing I disliked so far is that as a new user to the platform you can get overwhelmed with features and it would be really useful to hide some or have some kind of clickthrough on-site tutorials. Sometimes they also make changes to the interface and it can be confusing what happened, but I guess it depends how often you use the software to learn what is what. > > I think it's the only and best way to get started with eCommerce business, with the number of options for the price. Sometimes I make mistakes with software and it takes me a lot of time to switch to better solutions, but with Shopify I think it's a good investment of time into building a shop with them. ----- ### "A quick start platform that is easy to outgrow" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 March 2021* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's quick and easy to setup a Shopify+ store > > **Cons**: It's quick to setup but a number of the advanced feature needed for modern Ecommerce are bolt on point solutions that vary greatly in quality and manageability. > > Shopify is not transparent about up times and site outages. The platform also has issues with basic data and calculations. I've noticed that our conversion rate is often off by a significant amount. When I talked with their support team about this, I was told that they would submit a ticket. ----- ### "Shopify Plus - overall the best choice" — 5.0/5 > **Penny** | *16 May 2024* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to plug in apps to customize your site functionality and user experience. > > **Cons**: Shopify no longer refunds fees when an order is cancelled or refunded. This is a huge cost to vendors. In general support is good but sometimes it takes a little back an forth to get a solution. > > Overall it's very good. One thing they really need is a better inventory control experience. It's very limited and clunky. ----- ### "A Robust Ecommerce Platform for companies large and small" — 5.0/5 > **Greg** | *7 February 2022* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use and cost. We went from a commerce solution that required 3-4 developers, took weeks to months to deploy simple features. We now have one we developer that can deploy key features in a matter of hours or days at a quarter of the cost of the previous platform. The thousand of apps also provide additional features that can be rolled out quickly and effectively, creating a robust website in a manner of weeks from the beginning of the engagement. > > **Cons**: Hard to complain about the platform. To expedite the development and roll-out we choose a theme that was a close fit to how we wanted the site to look and function. However there are not an unlimited number of themes and while we are happy with the results so far, we are limited in terms of some design elements that we want to try out and test out. Overall not a large problem. > > Shopify Plus has been a game changer for us. Conversion rates improved 50% after deployment. Site speed is phenomenal, the dashboards are great, uptime is great, and access to the app catalog cuts development time down to a matter of days. We have deployed more features and services in less than a year, something which would have taken multiple years at 3-4x the cost on our prior platform. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/390201/shopify-plus?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/390201/shopify-plus) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
