## Reviews

### "WOO WHO WOo" — 5.0/5

> **Keith** | *March 18, 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

### "Plug and Play and Get Paid" — 5.0/5

> **Patrick** | *April 3, 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Not only is it free to set up, but the fact that I was able to easlity create an ecommerce site to sell my products in literally in hours was great. The multiple payment options and integration with my bank and paypal allowed me to receive funds quickly. Adding products and chaging pricing - also easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Seems I am always updating the plug-in, and I worry about security.  (Although it hasn't been an issue).  If I was not super savvy on web design/Wordpress, I might have found it difficult to set up.
> 
> I am please with being able to have an ecommerce store that works so I can concentrate on marketing and new product development.

### "Full control over your online store" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *March 29, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like the most about WooCommerce is that you can customize almost anything, like for example the design and the functionality, which is amazing if you want full control over your online store.
> 
> **Cons**: We had a refund issues one time and WooCommerce penalized us with a fee that felt pricy and the worst part is that we had to talk to the technical team to get it back up and running.
> 
> Overall, WooCommerce has been a powerful option for us to get good control and flexibility in our ecommerce. It’s a great tool since we wanted to build something customized, but not necessarily the easiest path for businesses that are just getting started.

### "Mainstay for my Online Store" — 5.0/5

> **Haseeb** | *October 24, 2025* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The fact that it allowed me to sell online at (www.planhoot.com), seamlessly. The ease with which I can offer multi-currency options - deep integrations with other tools is something that was super beneficial and critical. Moreover, the payment processing is something that made life easier for customers.
> 
> **Cons**: There could be more customizations available for people such as me. I am not a super techy guy, and I am not saying that it was hard to use - but, there could be a little but of easy in use.
> 
> It has been important for my business. I was told by my devs to use Woocommerce from the start, and I have trusted them to do so. For 8 years, it has been the backbone of our online operations.

> 
> **Pros**: I like the customization options and flexibility for website creation. It supports many payment options and works well with WordPress and Elementor.
> 
> **Cons**: It is not very easy to use at the beginning. Customer support depends a lot on plugins and documentation.
> 
> Overall it is a powerful eCommerce tool with good value for money, but it requires technical knowledge to manage properly.
