WOO Commerce has given us a platform that has allowed us to build a successful eCommerce brand from scratch. From the very beginning, where we needed a simple and easy-to-use platform for both internal teams and customers alike, to what is now a much more technical setup, WOO Commerce has given us all the capability we've needed to scale at pace. Not only that, the support team we work directly with has been fantastic and has a genuine desire to resolve our issues, suggest improvements to our setup, and ultimately grow our revenue numbers.

WooCommerce Likes & Dislikes

Like

The ease of use, alongside the technical design capabilities that it has that a low-skilled front-end web builder such as myself to easily implement the solutions needed to grow our business.

Like

I like how customizable WooCommerce is and all the compatible add-ons built by developers to extend the functionality.

Like

Integrating it with your website is incredibly easy. The sheer number of plugins you can add to your WooCommerce store makes any task you might think would be time-consuming incredibly simple, allowing you to have your e-commerce site up and running in just a few minutes. I've even integrated it with the Sage ERP system, which has over 10,000 product references, making it a versatile e-commerce platform suitable for both small and much larger online stores. The only limitations are the ones you set.

Dislike

I don't have any dislikes per se. Over the years, we've needed to do a lot of work on site speed due to the bloat of some of the plugins we've needed to use to work alongside WOO Commerce - however, that has been drastically improving month by month, and WOO has done a lot of work to move this forward.

Dislike

I dislike the complexities that come with building out a full custom cart, especially in the B2B space. We were unable to get the cart to function to our needs for a highly complex pricing structure without customizing it too much to where it would make upgrades and maintenance very costly and cumbersome

Dislike

It's true that they improve every year, but it's also true that in the Spanish market, payment gateways, and shipping methods, if it weren't for third-party plugins, they still have a long way to go. However, if we compare how it was 10 years ago to now, there's a huge leap in the tool's quality.

    Ease of management and adaptation of WooCommerce for companies of different sizes

    May 8, 2026
    I've been working with WooCommerce for over 12 years. I've implemented it in both small and medium-sized businesses. It's a very easy tool for the marketing team to manage. The WordPress world is incredibly well-developed, and you can add plugins that allow you to enhance your e-commerce site. It's very simple to integrate into your website and very easy to manage.
