Chief Marketing Officer

I do believe if you're building an ecommerce store and your budget permits, then Shopify is a no brainer. It gets the essentials right for setting up an online store. The storefront templates work well enough and the checkout process is solid. I've found that the app ecosystem fills in most of the gaps for features that aren't built in natively. You probably need to ask yourself if you really need a feature if it falls outside of that. Where it falls short is in customisation depth. When clients wanted specific workflows or data structures that didn't fit Shopify's model, we hit walls. The pricing also scales up quickly once you need features beyond the basics. Support was responsive for straightforward issues but struggled with technical edge cases.

Very little customization, lots of features that prohibit SEO results that need workarounds like how they generate Schema or reviews. However, it is very user friendly and easy to see performance metrics

Director of Marketing

Overall, Shopify has been an excellent platform for running and scaling our e-commerce operations. It is incredibly powerful, stable, and easy to manage day-to-day. The ecosystem around Shopify is one of its biggest strengths, particularly the huge range of apps and strong compatibility with third-party tools, which allows us to customise and expand functionality as we grow. The main drawback is cost. While the core platform is strong, additional functionality often requires paid apps or upgrades, which can add up quickly. As we sell products that can be considered high-risk in certain markets, we are also required to use Shopify Plus, which increases overall platform costs.
