"Great product and very easy to use"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

The great service that Customer Support has given in the two or three times I have used them. Also being accepted by the helpdesk for linkup top beta testing which I am enjoying. The ease of use and the great documentation have made implementation a breeze.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Nothing disliked as the experience has been great so far.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

My problem was finding a simple platform to get our product out to market and have a e-commerce add-on that works well. Further to this the feature to be able to "hide" products and then list with the new linkup product is great.

"Communicating with staff when needed help"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

most helpful is communicating with customer service and chat function. It's really important because I had a moment that i couldn't do just by myself and the help from staff members was amazing.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Maybe we could say the price because for start-ups when it's especially a starting point you can't afford to pay monthly, I needed to stop using the website but I had to pay 7$ (don't remember exactly) to have all the stores saved and this wasn't helpful. It is better if the company (person) can't pay 20 or 40$ monthly just stop charging them and stop the website after that when the customer pays monthly payment then you can give and renew all the product which was already uploaded on the website.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

adding details in-store and consultation for managing the site. Also, there was a problem with the CSV file and customer service helped me to upload into website.

"Pleasantly Surprised"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

In a short period of time, I went from being a skeptic to a raging fan because of the innovative synthesis Ecwid has achieved between the website builder and e-commerce functions merging them into one intuitive, easy-to-use UI and platform. The added integrations with social media are icing on an already delicious cake.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Thus far I have nothing negative to offer. My experience comparing Ecwid to other e-commerce platforms has convinced me that there is no relative comparison to be made. Ecwid has differentiated itself to the extent that its competitors have little to offer.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ecwid has been instrumental in bringing online an essential function for a nonprofit engaged in the distribution of literature. We went from zero to 60 with Ecwid in a matter of only days, and we are still only utilizing a small fraction of the functionality of the platform.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

No doubt Ecwid is the best platform for beginners also to creata a professional website and start earning a lot. But after renewal the price becomes little expensive to renew domain and hosting. But at the same this helps to grow your business also

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being a beginner it was quite difficult for me to creat a eCommerce professional website. But Ecwid has made it so simple. I have create professional website by my own and started earning internationally

"Fast & Easy"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

Setup is straight-forward, quick & easy. You can get your store up, and running in no time, but there is also a ton of customization, options, features, to get lost in to make your site/store completely your own.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Product variations only available on higher tiers, which can make organization a bit of a puzzle, at first, if you have different stock levels for different versions of the same product.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Providing a platform to do business online, so we can bring our members the products & equipment they need.

"Switch to Ecwid on my RapidWeaver Site"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

Ability to customize shopping cart, many different payment options, professional looking.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

It would be nice if videos could be added to the products just like photo's are. I don't really like the look of youtube videos in my site, it doesn't have a professional look.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allowing the use of charge cards. Previously I only took Paypal. Automatically processing inventory, once an item is sold it's removed from inventory and marked Sold on the website.

"Easy to use"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

It only takes few minutes to create products and categories in Ecwid. Different options for each product where some add to the price and other make a discount is easy to set up. Setting up payment methods is also very easy.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

It seems that this us mainly for goods and not so much for products like tickets or tours when connecting with advertising. Hoping this will be added soon.

What problems is Ecwid solving and how is that benefiting you?

Selling our products easily with a good connection to the Wix platform. Helping us helping our customers to choose between payment methods. We save money by selling through a channel that doesn't take percentage of our sales.
