1. Ease of Use

When running an ecommerce store, you want it to work for you, not against you. Shopify allows you to easily edit inventory, make changes to themes and menus, and add pages and posts. Using Shopify Smart Collections, store owners can separate the catalog of products into categories and make it easier for customers to browse. The experience of using Shopify is both simple for the store owner, and for the customer. From browsing products, to adding items to the cart, to completing the purchase, the experience is seamless.

2. The Apps

Since Shopify runs on a standard platform, you are able to try out different apps to see which ones are a great fit for you and your ecommerce store. Because these apps are built to run on Shopify, you don’t need to worry about “breaking” your site. There are apps for loyalty programs, cross-sell and upsell aps, shipping apps, apps to integrate with your accounting software. You can make your ecommerce site run just how you want with well over 1,000 apps to choose from.

Defending against threats are always a high priority for any ecommerce site. Keeping your customer data and business information securely maintained and safe from hackers is of the utmost importance.
