What To Choose: Woo-commerce Or Magento

Both Woo-Commerce and Magento are well-known e-commerce platforms. If you ask someone which one is the best then it will be a hard decision to make. Cause both are widely popular and have their advantages and disadvantages. But one thing is true in the e-commerce industry nothing can shake their name. But before we get into what to choose first let’s see what’s e-commerce?

Well, it’s an online service for selling products online through dropshipping or other delivery methods. Here you order products by visiting the site that hosts your required product and ordering it from there. As for payment, there are various options available. Such as pay on delivery, through your bank or card, etc. Now you are thinking that since you aren’t able to visit the store and check out the product physically wouldn’t it be a risk to order from such a place? And if so why is it still so popular?

Well, you are right it’s risky. But do you think there’s any investment without risk? The products that you buy in a physical store after checking can be defective. And besides e-commerce business is purely dependent on the trust between seller and buyer. So unless they are planning to close their business in a really short time the seller would do their best to get the best quality product possible. Also, various policies are in place that ensures such occurrences. Like return and replacement policies and so on. These are strictly maintained by such platforms as without them no customer would trust them completely.

Now that we have a general understanding of an e-commerce platform let’s talk about where does Woo-commerce and Magento comes in. By now you should know that e-commerce is an online shop. So it can be opened by also anyone who has a website and access to products. It’s a wonderful platform to earn from home online and create a stable income funnel. But not all of us are programmers so not everyone can build a working site from scratch. And if hire someone to build such a platform with complete security it will cost a lot and a lot of time to set it up. Luckily there are CMS sites like Woo-commerce and Magento which have everything ready. You just need to select a host and domain and you are ready to go. But you don’t need them both all you need is one. The end decision is up to you. But to help you let me tell you a little about them.

Woo-commerce

I don’t think many people don’t know the term ‘WordPress’. It’s one of the leading CMS website builders out there. Woo-commerce is basically a plugging that transforms and gives it features of an e-commerce platform. Also, there are a bunch of themes and plugging available that can help you to customize and enhance your site experience. The downside is that not all plugins are easy to use. Some need a little programming knowledge to operate. Aside from that, it’s one of the best there is.

Magento

Though it came later it has become very popular. There are also various themes and plugins available for it as well. But it’s a little complex. Theme and plugins are hard to install. Even maintaining it requires a little programming knowledge. But in terms of security and high-level platform management, it’s one of the best. Also, it’s mainly built for a big e-commerce platform with high-level traffic with complex and flexible functionalities. In other words, it's built for high-end buisiness. Thus its security is so high and that's why it's such a complex CMS to work with. But when it works it pays of big time.
