## Reviews

### "Efficient and User-Friendly, but Pricey for B2B" — 4.0/5

> **Taher** | *12 January 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Shopify impresses with its well-structured interface and ease of onboarding, making it simple to set up an online store even for beginners. The checkout process is seamless, ensuring a smooth experience for customers. Additionally, the platform offers a plethora of marketing apps, helping businesses stay competitive and effectively reach their audience.
> 
> **Cons**: The main drawback of Shopify is its pricing plan for the B2B segment, which is quite high. This can be a significant concern for businesses looking to scale up or those operating with tight budgets.
> 
> My experience with Shopify has been largely positive. The platform's intuitive design and wide range of features make it a powerful tool for e-commerce businesses. However, the high pricing for B2B services could be a deterrent for some. Despite this, Shopify remains a top choice for its ease of use and comprehensive marketing solutions.

### "Solid Foundations but AI leaning a let down\!" — 4.0/5

> **Dani** | *1 October 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's very easy to get a basic storefront setup with no real need for web development skills or previous experience. Shopify supports highly configurable and customisable product catalogues and for customers, it offers multiple payment options for ease of use. Payment Processing is almost instant, giving the customer confidence their orders have been accepted. &#10;Fees are very reasonable, and support small businesses and change as you grow, offering excellent value for money.
> 
> **Cons**: Customer Support seems tricky with the increase prevalence of AI-driven chatbots that too often trap you in endless loops where it disagrees with what it's just said, sending you round and round without answers. Please make it easier to talk to the actual experts\!
> 
> Hugely positive for our business, it's helped us unlock a new channel for sales and it continues to grow, but please get rid of the AI, I guarantee most customers probably dislike it, give us real people back please\!

### "The Best Ecommerce Platform (and it's not even close)" — 5.0/5

> **Micah** | *29 August 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: How it is the widest used, most reliable, and most advanced ecommerce tool available in the world. It has so many apps, and everything is standardized and set up for the ecom industry. Couldn't be happier with Shopify
> 
> **Cons**: Limitations on B2B, wholesale, and businesses that rely on "dealer" networks. I know there are some features but its not as intuitive as retail DTC side of shopify.
> 
> Very very happy with it, It is everything I need and more\! I will be a lifelong shopify user for its great features.

### "They keep the transaction fee on refunds" — 1.0/5

> **brien** | *27 October 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Backed and mass editing of products&#10;Drop down change picture&#10;They help you with sales tax&#10;Ai helps find problems but do not have it code pages for you we had to reset our whole store.
> 
> **Cons**: i had to refund a order for    $8,117.04  shopify kept $268.16 USD fee&#10;Cost money to use your own UPS rates which most carts let you do for free.&#10;We you find thing the alot of cart have for free right out of the box. Shopify has not done them because the make to much money getting a commsion off the app. I forgot they do collections do not know why the did that.
> 
> not good they make you pay for everything and they do not refund you charge fees on a return very sad.

### "Its OK but Not OK" — 3.0/5

> **Madeline** | *21 September 2026* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about shopify is that it makes it easier to pay at almost any website. You can just connect right to it and voila.
> 
> **Cons**: When I liked least about Shopify.Is that not all the shops are real that you can purchase from so it's easy to get ripped off.
> 
> My overall shopping experience using shopify has for the most part been good , but the customer service department is not very good. For example, I purchased an item from a Shopify shop and I never received it. And since there's no customer service that you can call and talk to I never received my money back.
