What is the difference between Shopify and WooCommerce?

The question is about Shopify

Answer:

Shopify represents a completely hosted e-commerce platform, whereas WooCommerce is a plugin for WordPress, requiring self-hosting. Shopify is an all-in-one kind of solution with built-in hosting, security, and maintenance, making it easy for beginners to be less flexible. WooCommerce is more flexible in customizations and full control but needs hosting, updates, and security separately. Shopify requires a monthly fee, whereas WooCommerce is free but requires additional costs for hosting, themes, and extensions. Which you choose is a matter of your technical skills, customization requirements, and whether you want a managed or self-hosted solution.
