You have a lot of control over the type of ecommerce experience you create. > > **Cons**: It's not the easiest to setup well if you're new to it. You also need to set it up properly to avoid security concerns. > > I've used WooCommerce along with a visual builder for WordPress to create a simple ecommerce website that does exactly what I need it to. ----- ### "The best (and only) truly free ecommerce plugin" — 5.0/5 > **Austin** | *30 June 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's overall the best bang for the buck ecommerce Software available. It allows more technical users to be able to customize it using code, as well as less technical users to add on features through the WordPress plugin repository. > > **Cons**: Websites with a lot of products can experience site speed issues, however, this sometimes can be dependent on the hosting environment. Integration with 3rd party shipping platforms can sometimes be difficult. > > Whether you have a web development background or not, WooCommerce can be a great place to start selling if you have an existing WordPress website. ----- ### "Plug and Play and Get Paid" — 5.0/5 > **Patrick** | *3 April 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Not only is it free to set up, but the fact that I was able to easlity create an ecommerce site to sell my products in literally in hours was great. The multiple payment options and integration with my bank and paypal allowed me to receive funds quickly. Adding products and chaging pricing - also easy to use. > > **Cons**: Seems I am always updating the plug-in, and I worry about security. (Although it hasn't been an issue). If I was not super savvy on web design/Wordpress, I might have found it difficult to set up. > > I am please with being able to have an ecommerce store that works so I can concentrate on marketing and new product development. ----- ### "Ehh, looking for better" — 3.0/5 > **Rhonda** | *23 June 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It’s a basic plugin that allows simple commerce via transactions in limited platforms, doing what it claims to do. > > **Cons**: Limited options for connecting platforms for payment methods, and missing some that are important for many clients. > > Ehhhh… it’s not special. It’s fairly simple to use, and there are plenty of upgrades that make it more usable - and costly. ----- ### "WOO WHO WOo" — 5.0/5 > **Keith** | *18 March 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: They do a great job of keeping the software updated and installed properly. Fee structure is in line with other software and often less in that there is no per transaction fee. Setup was easy, making new products or variants is also really easy. > > **Cons**: Freight setup is complicated but this isn’t really a problem of WOO, freight is complicated. We use a third party for freight pricing. The store adds the freight but we don’t actually use WOO for freight. > > We might have preferred a nicer look to the product listing but this works. We have never had a glitch and enjoy the simplicity of the program ----- Page: 1 / 43\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/187800/woocommerce?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/187800/woocommerce) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
