Pros

What I like the most about paypal is, it is easy to use in paying and most of all paypal giving a gift reward in every users.
The Paypal program is very wonderful. The ease in depositing and withdrawing is very distinguished.
Love the ease of use and the ease of implementation/integration within other websites and platforms to capture payment.

Pros

Very happy to have this system, it really help us to do our business much more efficient and the cost of having this system is affordable.
Woocommerce is super easy to set up and I have build dozens of sites using it as our ecommerce plugin. Right out of the box its great if you want a simple set up.
Full (automatic) integration with Woocommerce makes managing inventory super easy. Customer support is amazing, all questions raised are always answered within 24hrs.

Cons

However, people also get blocked by PayPal without any warning and they can freeze and hold the money from that account that makes annoying things to the user.
Also, I do worry about storing my bank account information for a service like PayPal. They might be insured against fraud, but I still worry sometimes that my account information will be stolen.
This becomes a problem when you need money quickly. IPN and PayPal API are unstable, often messing up transactions, especially if they involve limited items and need verification as soon as possible.

Cons

The worst part about the entire setup is trying to get in touch with their support team.
I mostly blame WordPress for that as Wordpress is not the easiest. Woocommerce has a lot of plugins that you may need and they are all expensive.
Hard to manage and enter info. I had to update information for the same product and different parts of the website rather than it updating the product information throughout all categories.

WooCommerce enables almost anyone to create an online store quickly and cheaply

Reviewed 7 years ago

WooCommerce is invaluable in helping me deploy an online store, and it has all the features I need run it well (in conjunction with numerous third party plugins). It is always updated, easy to manage, and does not require too much server resources. Best of all, the cost of running a WooCommerce store is much less than other professional platforms of a similar nature.

Pros

What can I say about WooCommerce? It is the best DIY solution for anyone wanting to create a store online of their own - and on their own. And if you don't want to DIY, there are plenty of people offering to do it for you at very low cost. What is great about WooCommerce is it integrates seamlessly with WordPress and the basic functionality in order to makes sales is totally FREE. Of course, if you want to enhance your store and have a really professional-looking one, there are so many plugins/themes both free and paid, that can help you achieve that. And not only that, WooCommerce is always updated so that it stays secure and cutting edge. Everything you need to build a store online is already available in WooCommerce.

Cons

Integration with Paypal is not really good. When you need to create a specific checkout page with the specific logo of your store showing on that page, you need to setup an entirely new Paypal account just for it. Paypal used to support multiple Custom Checkout logos under one single Paypal account, but this changed late in 2016. Besides this issue, WooCommerce support takes a while to reply, if you email them with an issue, although paid help is readily available from numerous online WordPress/WooCommerce experts, so you are never really stranded.

Easy to integrate into my wordpress sites, as well as payment processors.

Reviewed 6 years ago

Easily integrated it into a wordpress site for a client to sell items online in a very simple to use way.

Pros

Integrates with Square (with extension), and Paypal. Easy to use. Compatible with most themes. Easy to add products and manage inventory.

Cons

There is a a bit of a learning curve for new users. Per item custom shipping prices would be nice to include natively.

Easy to use eCommerce pluggin/app

Reviewed 6 years ago
Pros

It has payment gateways like PayPal, it provides options to offer free shipping or flat rate shipping, user reviews, user ratings, reports with category filters, it's free.

Cons

it has not free hosting, even though it's simple, you still need to download and install the plugin on your WordPress site. It's needed to have a WordPress site installed.

I have setup and manage multiple e-commerce sites that use WooCommerce.

Reviewed 7 years ago
Pros

It is fairly easy to setup and is great for a small business. The management for a business/client is also fairly simple.

Cons

The plugins and software need constant updating and updates can break the software. WooCommerce also has lagged in terms of keeping up with updates that come from payment processors like Paypal.

I've added the WooCommerce plugin to my website to sell my digital ebooks. It has been seamless.

Reviewed 6 years ago

I've been able to use WooCommerce on my Wordpress website and it integrates in perfectly. I can now sell ebooks directly from my website store using WooCommerce and Paypal. Love it.

Pros

This has been a seamless process adding the WooCommerce plugin to my author website so I can sell my digital ebooks. It's an easy-to-use plug-in and perfect for my author needs. It's also a free plug-in, so absolutely affordable.

Cons

I can't think of any cons to do with WooCommerce. I've never had any issues and it's a reliable and well designed plug-in.

Love the printful integration

Reviewed 6 years ago

The ease of being able to not deal with direct orders- set up once, and my customers can automatically see inventory and designs and have it shipped directly to them

Pros

I love the integration on my website to my printful store so customers can buy tShirt designs! It makes it super convenient for people to check out through PayPal and have everything drop shipped to them directly from the website instead of me holding onto inventory. It cuts out the middle man!

Cons

It is a little bit difficult to integrate it with your website if you were not text savvy. I had to have my web designer do it for me

Easy to use, great results

Reviewed 7 years ago

Good software, useful as well as easy. It's only use is to sell things through a web page and it does it very well.

Pros

It is so easy to use and to integrate in your webpage using wordpress. It allows you to easily create a digital selling platform that will make your business easier to manage, since you will receive an email every time someone buys through Woocommerce. Plus, there are a lot of integrations you can add on it, and you can even allow payments to be done with PayPal or safety payments with credits card, etc.

Cons

No major cons, but once we stopped receiving the email every time someone bought something. We tried to solve this but no one could so we had to check manually every certain time if somebody had bought something. After a couple of months, we started receiving the emails again.

Wonderful simple and effective software.

Reviewed 6 years ago

I was impressed by how I was able to create a customized solution for my client, which has very diverse shipping parameters, including different products, different box sizes, different shipping locations and more.

Pros

I can easily edit any part of our site from the home page to the Buy button. I also like to work to publish beautiful content and create a powerful brand. I like the way to control all my clients. I have the ability to manage the tax account. Also, I like to work on the installation and a simple way to change everything I need there, i also love not having to collect information from the credit card, but I can simply integrate Amazon Pay and Paypal. It creates less responsibility for me and my business at the same time that it allows consumers to shop online safely. Another good part is that you will get the WooCommerce developers at the most economical rate compared to other e-commerce solutions and there are many developers available online.

Cons

The platform may need to be updated frequently due to updates that can be an update task while making sure that your current website does not break during the update. In addition, there may be a slight learning curve due to the number of features.
