I'm impressed with the customer service provided by Ecwid. It is indeed, beyond expectations !. I have always been able to get in touch with the customer service team via chat within not more than one minute. I am particularly impressed with the effort they make to sort out the issues even if the matter is out of their scope. The overall experience I have had so far is very postive , more than I had expected.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Nothing specific to dislike about based on the fact that the product is value for the money.

"Super easy to use and maintain"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

The products I sell require a lot of custom fields and Ecwid is so simple to setup with multiple custom fields with the ability to add cost per customization. I looked around at multiple store software and they either didn't have the options that I wanted or was confusing to use and setup. If you're just starting out, you can use Ecwid for free for up to 10 products and enough of the options available to manage your store, you can start making money today! It also connects to other store streams such as Amazon, Facebook and more to make it easy enough to sell your products and get your brand onto multiple platforms with just a few clicks.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

I use a paid plan but can't edit or create invoices and I believe that should be a part of any paid services Ecwid offers. I have a lot of customization to my products and sometimes customers mess up or change their mind. It doesn't happen a lot and making a note of the change isn't a big deal, but I'd rather send their product with the proper marked invoice/packing slip to match what they wanted.

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

Ecwid provides a ton of options to setup your products and I haven't found a limitation to what I can setup on my products. It also connects easily to my business site and any changes made on Ecwid reflects instantly on my live website.

"Ecwid provides Effortless Setup, User-Friendly Customization and amazing customer service"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

Getting started with Ecwid was a breeze; the integration and onboarding process was straightforward, and managing products, inventory, and creating product variations and product descriptions was effortlessly intuitive. The inclusion of the mobile app further enhanced the experience, allowing seamless connections with both Facebook and Instagram for wider reach and engagement. Apps implementation is so easy and Exceptional Customer Support.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

While Ecwid excels in simplicity, a more robust analytics report could enhance the experience. For instance, insights into product popularity and user engagement would be valuable.

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

My quest for an effortlessly set-up online shop that remains independent of major marketplaces, such as Etsy, led me to Ecwid. What sets it apart is its seamless integration with social platforms, especially Facebook and Instagram. Ecwid not only meets but exceeds my expectations for a versatile and user-friendly e-commerce solution!

"From Nobody To Somebody"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

The Ecwid platform is such a great creation tool for my business, it is straightforward and easy to navigate, non intimidating for those who aren't computer savvy, ut want to start entrepreneurship. The best thing I like about Ecwid is most functions are instantaneous, live to your site, BAM DONE! You can get so much done quickly,!

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

I tend to make multiple products from one logo, I just wish as I created the first product I could chose what product I want to accompany a whole outfit or home decor in one fell swoop, Ecwid gives about 5 options at a time for clothing, I am a power user I'd like to see at least 15-20 options to quickly create several products at the same time, basically better batch processing of multiple products, also mock-up downloads, should be a bit more streamlined

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

Ecwid helps with my time, with Ecwid ease of immigration I'm not Bob down with having to take a long time in a learning curve to create products I can make products, quick, fast, easy efficiently, and they come out exactly how I want them to. I can make a whole outfit, sweatshirt, sweatpants, hat, socks, and sneakers all to match and one fell swoop or any other site probably will take me days. I appreciate your time and software creators to think about the end-user when in production.

"Ecwid for a flower delivery service"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

New level of service for a small business. Easy to use.Easy to add new products ( we adding a new bouquets every day). Easy of integration with banks

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Analytics report might be more helpfull. For example - products that have been opened more than others and so on.

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

We're making a custom bouquets each of them are unique, florists making a photo of a ready-to deliver product that can be delivered in one hour. The customer recieves the product from the photo, and not "the approximately the same" like it always goes in on-line flowershops.

What do you like best about Ecwid?

It was very simple to start up and get going. Managing products, inventory, product descriptions, etc. are all super easy and straight forward. Having the app is also great.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

I wish there was more integration with other services; for example GovX/ID.me for military discounts would be nice

I was mainly selling on eBay and then I started selling directly with Ecwid. After a year or two, 85% of my business is now on Ecwid and only 15% of it coming from eBay.

"The E-commerce Platform with Exceptional Customer Support"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

As someone who has been using Ecwid for over five years in Africa, and Ethiopia, I can confidently say it is an exceptional e-commerce platform. The platform offers a wide range of features that are user-friendly and easy to use, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced e-commerce professionals. One of the standout features of Ecwid is its customer support. Whenever I have an issue or question, the Ecwid support team has responded quickly and is extremely helpful. Which is incredibly convenient and reassuring, especially when running an online business. Another great feature of Ecwid is its flexibility. The platform allows users to integrate their online store with various websites, including social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram and even offers mobile app support. I highly recommend Ecwid to anyone looking for a reliable and user-friendly e-commerce platform. Its exceptional customer support and flexibility make it stand out from other platforms in the market.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

Limited customization is one of the cons I see on Ecwid, while it allows for some customization of the storefront, it may not offer as much flexibility as some other e-commerce platforms. This may be a drawback for businesses looking to create a unique and customized online store and the mobile app is not developed fully, it redirects to the website in the middle of checkout.

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

we connected diffrent supermarkets using ecwid and we accept orders from customers and we deliver.

"Easy enough for anybody"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

The ease of setup as well as the features. When I first started using Ecwid, I had my site up and running in just over an hour. Integrating it into my website was easy; worked right the first time. I've used it for about five years and have never encountered a problem.

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

I have never had a difficulty with Ecwid or its features. I've never had to contact support, nor have I had a customer complaint. There's really nothing to dislike so far.

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

It allowed me to create an on-site store for my books and photos.

My only issue is that it is not as widely supported by other WordPress as Woo Commerce.

"I've been using ECWID for two years now and couldnt be happier!"
What do you like best about Ecwid?

ECWID is easy to use, easy to integrate, and has excellent customer support with a team that is interested in your business needs. Compared to the previous shopping cart I was using, ECWID is lightyears ahead!

What do you dislike about Ecwid?

So far, I have found very little to dislike about ECWID. When I have had an issue it's been fixed quickly or they have noted the request and later, when updating the app they have introduced the options requested.

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

Well, you know how ecommerce stores need to provide great customer experiences while being easy to use for us business owners, well what ECWID gives us is all this and more. It helps us manage our sales and shipping processes with its order status options and helps us communicate with the customer as well.
