FAQ
Shopify vs WooCommerce — FAQ
WooCommerce has no license fee but requires hosting, SSL, and potentially paid plugins. Shopify charges a monthly subscription (from $39/month) but includes hosting and SSL. For small stores, WooCommerce is cheaper. For larger stores, total cost often evens out.
Shopify is easier out of the box — it's a hosted solution with a user-friendly dashboard. WooCommerce offers more flexibility but requires more technical knowledge for updates, hosting management, and plugin compatibility.
Both scale well, but differently. Shopify handles infrastructure scaling automatically. WooCommerce can scale to any size but requires proper hosting upgrades and optimization as your store grows.
Yes. We handle migrations in both directions — Shopify to WooCommerce and vice versa. Products, customers, orders, and SEO data are preserved during the transition.
For Czech-market-focused stores needing local payment gateways (GoPay, Comgate) and specific invoicing requirements, WooCommerce often offers more flexibility. For international sales with simpler requirements, Shopify's ecosystem can be more efficient.
