content editing tools at your disposal for your blog and other web pages. Being able to
easily manage both your eCommerce and WordPress on the same user-friendly CMS

subpages. Meanwhile, WooCommerce is great if you want to create a corporate
website with eCommerce capabilities.

5. Third-party eCommerce platforms will always run the risk of losing data associated
with them when the platform closes. On occasion, it may also subject your website to
their party’s terms resulting in significant difficulties when trying to access data.
WooCommerce understands that data related to your customer purchases and order
history is very important to you and your customers. Hence with WooCommerce, you
get a backup platform if ever another third-party eCommerce platform/vendor/service
provider is down.

6. After a customised website has gone ‘Live’, it is often difficult and expensive to make
further design changes to it. But with WooCommerce, you can easily switch back and
forth between themes to update your website appearance with a variety of paid or free
unique themes.
