The ease with which you are able to track and process online orders is also exceptional. Training staff to use the system is incredibly easy and full proof. The value of the system is beyond all expectations and has become a vital asset for ongoing workflows. It is seamless in the processing of various payment types and is easy to use if refunds are necessary. It is a must have\!\! > > **Cons**: I have not experienced any down side to using Shopify. It is easy to use, versatile and focussed to provide the best possible customer experience possible. It was not necessary to utilise the website creation options but Shopify understands the retail space so vividly that the roll out was slick and effortless. > > It is simply a great product and I would suggest it as a "need to have" business tool to any ecommerce outfit, whatever the size. The support provided by Shopify as well is a "breath of fresh air" as they really work with you to grow your business and optimise your offering. ----- ### "One of the best website ecommerce solutions out there" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 March 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It takes the headache out of manually setting up an ecommerce website. Security and updates are all taken care of for you, which is especially important when selling online. > > **Cons**: The customisation options can be limited with certain website templates. This can be overcome with custom coding however. > > It's a great ecommerce solution, both for those just getting started selling online, and also those with established businesses. ----- ### "The Best E-Com Website Tool" — 5.0/5 > **Tanveer** | *19 October 2024* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: easy to start with new website and easy payment method > > **Cons**: margin to deduct from payment method with you use web payment > > very good and i using it from a 5 years. i am increasing revnue. ----- ### "Wish I had switched from Wix years ago" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *14 May 2026* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Shopify feels purpose-built for eCommerce. After switching from Wix, the difference in overall performance, flexibility, and ecosystem became obvious very quickly. The platform is easier to scale, the app integrations are strong, checkout feels polished, and there are far more tools available for growing a business. Customization options are excellent, and there is a large community and support network around the platform. > > **Cons**: There can be a learning curve when first moving over, especially when dealing with themes, apps, and advanced customization. Costs can also increase as you add apps and additional features. Some functions that feel like they should be built-in sometimes require outside apps. > > My experience has been extremely positive. I switched from Wix and immediately noticed improvements in site performance, overall usability, and the ability to grow a business. Shopify feels like a platform designed around serious eCommerce rather than trying to be a general website builder that also happens to sell products. The ecosystem is strong, the checkout process feels polished, and it gives businesses room to scale without feeling limited. The migration took effort, but looking back I wish I had switched sooner. ----- ### "Pretty easy to use" — 5.0/5 > **Margie** | *27 May 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like Shopify because even the more affordable option (the basic level) offers a variety of options, and you're able to customize it to what you need. I also like that you can add in various apps (like a calendar app) to show events. I think it's pretty easy to use. > > **Cons**: I wish that the free options for templates were a bit more robust. There are not many options to choose from. > > Shopify has overall been a good fit for me. I'm still learning how to use it, but the payments and banking information have been easy to navigate. ----- Page: 1 / 269\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/83891/shopify?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/83891/shopify) ## 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 | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
