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. ----- ### "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 ----- ### "Great free plugin and easy to use once set up." — 5.0/5 > **Athena** | *2 February 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: WooCommerce made it easy to set up our online store, update products, offer different versions of products, and accept different payment types. Any issues we encountered have always been swiftly corrected. The core plugin is free, so the value is in it from the start. > > **Cons**: Learning to set up products isn't entirely user-friendly, and takes a bit of effort to understand all the different components to it. > > I enjoy working with it. While it takes a bit to learn, at times it's absolutely worth the time to learn once you have the hang of it. ----- ### "If you are just starting out or need Wordpress, woo commerce is your main option, otherwise if you can move to something better" — 3.0/5 > **Francesco** | *4 February 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is free, easy to setup (at least at the beginning) and you can start getting payment right away with a plethora of payment gateways > > **Cons**: It is very hard to customize or adapt to your own business model. A simple thing like removing some fields from the checkout can be a painful process even with plugins > > I needed to use woo commerce but it's an old platform that even if has been made "modern looking" it is still too clunky. ----- ### "A Highly Customizable Ecommerce Solution for WordPress" — 5.0/5 > **Scott** | *26 January 2026* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love how easy WooCommerce is to set up and manage, while still offering a high level of flexibility and customization. It integrates well with WordPress, and the plugin ecosystem is huge and there’s a solution for almost every use case. We’ve been able to tailor several WooCommerce plugins to match our exact business needs, and overall the platform has been very reliable. WooCommerce support has also been great whenever we’ve needed help. > > **Cons**: The biggest downside is plugin management, especially when you run a larger store with a lot of extensions. Keeping track of plugin subscriptions, renewals, and which account they’re tied to can get confusing over time. We’ve occasionally had to reach out to support to merge or clean up subscriptions, but support has always been responsive and helpful. > > Overall, WooCommerce has been an excellent ecommerce platform for our business. We use it as the core ecommerce engine for two websites and it has allowed us to customize nearly every part of the store experience, from checkout and shipping rules to product logic and customer flows. We primarily use WooCommerce-developed extensions when possible, but we’ve also had strong results with reputable third-party plugins. If you want a flexible platform that can scale with your needs, WooCommerce has been a great fit. ----- 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
