As I see it, Shopify is not only an easy way to launch and manage your online store. It’s geared towards supporting store owners in crucial aspects like opening additional channels (e.g. Amazon, eBay, or Facebook), offering customer support tools (e.g. live chat), or taking care of the technical hassles.

 

Why do we like it? Adding products as well as managing payment and shipping options and processing orders are absolutely painless. Their layouts (templates) can be modified to a large degree without any programming knowledge. Shopify can also help you with your content marketing as it comes with a blog and more. Although with some limitations. It’s possible to change your store’s look and add extra functionality by installing new templates and apps in seconds. If you are a programmer (or hire one), you can completely control your online store customization. Having official 24 hours support is something I value a lot. No matter how fast your business grows, Shopify can accommodate small, big, and colossal eCommerce projects. If you are into dropshipping, Shopify integrates with several apps/providers (read guide). A nice perk is that you can sell offline with their PoS solution.
