WooCommerce is a WordPress extension that allows for creating an online store. You must buy a domain name, and get VPS hosting and a theme. In addition, if you are new to the e-commerce world, you must add tax and other boring settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">For a WooCommerce website, you must first set up your website.

At the same time, the Shopify monthly payments cover hosting, which means you do not need to worry about hosting anywhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Now, that we know all the details, let\u2019s sign up for Shopify and create a test product.

Shopify is a paid one and you have to choose one of the offered paid tariffs before you start.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shopify comes with an SSL certificate (HTTPS), but you will need to order an SSL certificate separately for the WooCommerce store.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_98d80d03-fc96-4393-be36-95a3ddc43cf5\"><hr class=\"ub_divider\" ><\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/woocommerce-hosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6028 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CTA-woocommerce-hosting.jpg\" alt=\"CTA woocommerce hosting\" width=\"800\" height=\"218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CTA-woocommerce-hosting.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CTA-woocommerce-hosting-300x82.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CTA-woocommerce-hosting-768x209.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_99e9b0de-93fe-478c-af58-7b47997502cd\"><hr class=\"ub_divider\" ><\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fre-pros-box is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<h2 class=\"myh2 wp-block-heading\">WooCommerce vs Shopify: features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Features Woocommerce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">The E-commerce solution WooCommerce for both store owners and developers is quite interesting. Created by 350 collaborators around the world, the WooCommerce platform, if briefly described, is extensibility, performance, security, and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. WooCommerce Design Settings<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">As already mentioned, WooCommerce is an e-commerce plugin for WordPress, and CMS, which covers about 26% of all online resources. Since both WordPress and WooCommerce projects are open-source, you have almost unlimited design options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">First, you can edit the WooCommerce code and embed everything you like. Second, thousands of free and premium WordPress themes are compatible with WooCommerce. There are even WordPress themes specially designed for WooCommerce. In addition, you can easily customize any theme for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Remember that most of the premium WordPress themes come with a tool like Drag-and-Drop Page Builder. With it, you will create an online store or a simple one-click demo site, install a premium slider, and get amazing support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">In addition, there are always thousands of free WordPress themes. WordPress also offers an intuitive theme configurator that helps you see your changes right away.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WooCommerce-vs-Shopify-12.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WooCommerce-vs-Shopify-12.png\" alt=\"WooCommerce design settings \" class=\"wp-image-3524\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">The number of settings that you can change depends on the chosen theme \u2014 the more advanced the theme, the more options to customize the theme in it. Moreover, you are able to apply any design by yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. WooFunctionality<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">There are many WooCommerce WordPress-compatible plugins with important functionality, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"justify\">\n<li>Social Networks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Partnership programs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Communities and Forums<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SEO<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>User registration and management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customer support<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Custom post types, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Simply put, the combination of WooCommerce-WordPress offers the freedom to design and expand functionality to create an online store. There is no other such e-commerce platform, including Shopify, that could compete with WooCommerce in this parameter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Shopify features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">As for the main e-commerce features, Shopify is not far behind in comparison with WooCommerce. Although it is far away from WooCommerce in terms of overall functionality, Shopify focuses on getting you working quickly, without technical difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">They offer to choose one of their ready-made tariff plans, and this is great if you want to quickly launch your online store because you do not need to bind with additional features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Design Settings<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Shopify offers 61 quality themes, 10 of which are free. These themes are created by design agencies and are examples of current and future trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">They are optimized for mobile devices, which is important for visitors using mobile devices. The average price is about $160. In addition, you can hire developers who will create your own Shopify theme or purchase a third-party solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">In addition, Shopify offers a \u201clive\u201d theme setting that helps you change your chosen theme depending on your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WooCommerce-vs-Shopify-13.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/WooCommerce-vs-Shopify-13.png\" alt=\"Shopify design setting\" class=\"wp-image-3525\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Also, as in WordPress, the number of customizable parameters you receive with a particular Shopify theme depends on the theme you choose. The more advanced the theme, the more settings are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Functionality<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Unlike WooCommerce, which comes with a lot of extensions and plug-ins, the Shopify App Store offers a much smaller number of expanding applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These applications will help you with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Product search<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Marketing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sales<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social networks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shipping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accounting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Warehouse management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reports<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customer support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">The two main disadvantages of Shopify applications are the following. First, they are much smaller than those of WooCommerce; second, Shopify&#8217;s premium apps require monthly payments reaching $1,500. At the same time, you pay for premium WooCommerce extensions once, which means Shopify is more expensive than WooCommerce for the same functionality.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_5a48d648-e6f8-44dd-a9ef-5208b892f691\"><hr class=\"ub_divider\" ><\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left round has-background\" style=\"background-color:#daf2ff\"><strong>Read:<\/strong>   \ud83d\udea9 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/woocommerce-payment-gateways-and-taxation-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Woocommerce Payment Gateway &amp; Taxation Guide<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_96a01ad1-4e10-47fb-be7f-a8d2e367cd3f\"><hr class=\"ub_divider\" ><\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Woocommerce Vs Shopify Highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"772\" height=\"543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woocommerce-and-shopify-functionality.png\" alt=\"woocommerce vs shopify\" class=\"wp-image-6014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woocommerce-and-shopify-functionality.png 772w, https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woocommerce-and-shopify-functionality-300x211.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wpoven.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/woocommerce-and-shopify-functionality-768x540.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"justify\">\n<li>WooCommerce uses the full power of WordPress, that is, you get more plugins than Shopify.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Premium WooCommerce themes are much cheaper than Shopify&#8217;s official themes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>WordPress\/WooCommerce themes have more features and are more extensible than Shopify themes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With Shopify, you will likely have to pay more for the same functionality as in WooCommerce, due to a regular monthly payment plan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For a beginner who has never heard of Shopify or WooCommerce, it may be easier to create an online shop on Shopify.

Speed<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">No doubt, both platforms are performance and security-focused. Shopify provides you with high-quality hosting, which means your store will work really fast. At the same time, you can greatly slow down your store by configuring it incorrectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">On the other hand, the performance of your WooCommerce-based store depends on the hosting. Get high-quality hosting to avoid problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Security<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">In terms of security, Shopify initially offers a free SSL certificate, which means your store is protected. Of course, you should consider all possible other methods of protection, such as password protection, and use only verified themes and applications from trusted sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">WooCommerce and WordPress offer you many protection options. In addition, you can always install free SSL or pay for an SSL certificate from any provider. Check out other ways to protect your WordPress, such as password protection and as well WordPress platform, themes, and plugin updates installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. WooCommerce vs Shopify: Prices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Two <a href=\"https:\/\/mydukaan.io\/blog\/best-ecommerce-platforms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">e-commerce platforms<\/a> have different pricing schemes. We recommend that you choose the platform that suits your needs, but consider the costs to control the budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.1. WooCommerce price<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">WooCommerce is a free plugin. You are able to use the online store without paying for a premium extension. However, you still have to pay for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"justify\">\n<li>Domain name \u2014 from about $10 per year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hosting starts VPS hosting from $1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SSL certificate for secure data exchange &#8211; Free with Wpoven hosting services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Premium WordPress Theme \u2014 Free with Wpoven hosting services<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Although WooCommerce is free, there are paid extensions for it. Most plugins cost less than $60. The official WooCommerce website offers a package of 19 extensions for $299, which is $16 per extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Remember, you can start <a href=\"https:\/\/mydukaan.io\/blog\/how-to-start-an-online-store\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">creating an online store<\/a> with the WooCommerce plugin for free. In addition, you can buy third-party WooCommerce extensions for as little as $5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.2. Shopify price<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Shopify offers a 14-day trial on a subdomain. However, you will not be able to sell anything (or check the purchase process) using the trial version. To start selling, you need to register at one of the paid tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">For $9 a month, you can get the <strong>Shopify Lite<\/strong> plan that allows you to sell on Facebook, add products to any site, chat with customers, and accept credit card payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">Other tariffs: Basic Shopify for $29\/mo, Shopify for $ 79\/mo, and Advanced Shopify for $299\/mo. The own domain name on the Shopify platform will cost you an additional $14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"justify\">So, Shopify is much more expensive than WooCommerce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.3.
