Some reviews about WooCommerce and Prestashop.

 

Back-End: Functions, Management

 

Because PrestaShop is a shopping cart and WordPress is just blogging platform then you need WooCommerce plugin to start selling online. They can be used for selling anything, including physical products and virtual items like ebooks, photos, etc…

 

PrestaShop offers its users a suite of tools designed to make the process of starting and running an online store easier and more profitable. Their built-in feature set is already impressive, covering all necessary sales tools like cross selling, coupons, etc. It provides extensive management statistics and the tools for managing your catalogue and shop settings are generally well laid out and intuitive to use.

 

WooCommerce: WordPress has an advantage just because it has a big community behind the WordPress platform. User can install many extension like themes, plugins very easy through WordPress Repository that built-in WordPress Dashboard. Retailers who are considering using WooCommerce must first have a WordPress website, and you’ll also need to have a configured WordPress site, hosting package, and SSL in place before you can start selling.

 

Storefront: Themes & Styles, Easy to Use

 

PrestaShop offer numerous storefront enhancements which have played a big role in sprucing up the front end design options for their users. PrestaShop has large categories of extensions including advanced modules and premium responsive templates which not only beautify the site design, but also enhance the functionality in admin, SEO, security, ordering, filters, and many more. PrestaShop’s template options are extensive and high quality.

 

WooCommerce offers a superior front-office experience since it is built upon the WordPress platform and for the same reason it is also ideal if you want to add e-commerce functionality to your existing WordPress website. The most problem with WooCommerce Front Store is the WordPress theme. If the current WordPress theme is not support WooCommerce, it’s a nightmare or you must change to others.

 

Documents, Support & Help

 

WooCommerce has good documentation section on the WooThemes site but they don’t provide free Help & Support.

 

Prestashop: There is a large quantity of documentation available from the PrestaShop website, which provides help and support concerning the platform’s different features and functions. PrestaShop also has customer service reps on call if you need to speak with someone. For support they also offer training courses and paid support plans if that’s something you need.

 

 

Prestashop or WooCommerce – Which is better e-commerce software?

 

Compared to its competitor, WooCommerce is a little bit limited in built-in features. So if you need a complex store, you’d better go for PrestaShop, because it is principally designed for use as an e-commerce platform.

 

PrestaShop is recommended for people who want to focus on selling products only without managing a site for other purposes like a forum and photography site. If you need a pure online store with a full range of e-commerce features, then it is better definitely choose PrestaShop.

 

Bonus: I share for you a module to migrate WooCommerce to Prestastore with Litextension.
