Leaving WooCommerce

Has your WooCommerce store outgrown itself?

If the updates, the slowdowns and the maintenance are taking more time than the shop is worth, I'll help you move to something faster and simpler to run, or tell you honestly if you're fine as you are. Senior developer, Hull and Yorkshire.

When a growing shop starts to creak

WooCommerce is a great way to get an online shop off the ground, and for plenty of businesses it does the job nicely. But as a catalogue grows and more is bolted on, some stores start to feel the strain: slower checkouts at busy times, more to keep updated, and the odd thing breaking when extensions don't get along. If you've reached that point, moving to a faster, simpler setup keeps your products and customers exactly as they are while giving you a store that's quicker and easier to look after. And if you haven't outgrown it yet, I'll say so.

What you gain by moving

What you gain when you've genuinely outgrown WooCommerce

Less to get hacked

No public admin login and far less to keep patched. A much smaller target, and one less thing to lie awake about.

Fast even when busy

A store that stays quick through your busiest sales periods, instead of crawling when it matters most.

Far less upkeep

No stack of extensions to babysit and update. Less to maintain means less of your time and money spent on it.

Checkout that just works

A purpose-built, well-tested checkout, with no compatibility surprises between add-ons at the worst possible moment.

Room to grow

Handle thousands of products and plenty of shoppers at once without the site grinding to a halt.

A smoother shop

Instant navigation, up-to-date stock and a modern feel that makes buying easy, and keeps people buying.
