As part of the comparison, the team evaluated and tested the top tools available in an effort to point out which is the most likely to satisfy the needs of new business owners venturing into the realm of ecommerce stores.
"The ecommerce space has always been a bit intimidating for new business owners, especially considering the abundance of different solutions that one can use to launch their store with," said Catalin Zorzini, editor-in-chief of the website. "At the same time, we know and understand how important it is for people to pick a solution that's right for them individually - almost feels like it's been tailor made. That's why we invest so much time in testing each solution, and then present the info back to our readers in a digestible form."
As a result of this effort, the team at Ecommerce-Platforms.com identified the top six platforms that most users enjoy, and then narrowed it down to the all-around no.1 choice based on various criteria.
Shopify proved to be superior as an entry-level solution among the top six. Where it really stands out is the ease of use that it offers while still remaining exceptionally powerful and not lacking any of the features that are crucial for running an effective ecommerce store.
"This year's lineup was really impressive overall, but Shopify still manages to stand out as the top player in this game," Zorzini continued. "Its no.1 strength is that it can be used to sell literally anything. Whether it's physical products or merchandise, digital products, services, ebooks, etc., Shopify can handle it all."
The Ecommerce Platforms team focused on a number of factors when evaluating each of the platforms featured. Starting from pricing, to features, flexibility, templates and designs available, add-ons, and customer support.
The pricing section proved to be particularly challenging to complete. With each platform having a different pricing model and different restrictions for every tier, it wasn't as straightforward to compare those pricing plans head to head.
"Generally speaking, you can launch an ecommerce store for anything from $0 to $300 a month. But the more expensive isn't always better, not for everyone, at least. So we wanted to highlight this in our comparison and steer people towards the right solution within their budgets," Zorzini said.
