Shopify has all-in-one e-commerce platform, it easy to launch a store from nothing to a fully functional store ready to process payments and accept online orders.

Shopify provides more slightly clean and modern design. The templates, widgets make easy to set up a store, add products, making many visual variants, user friendly shopping cart solutions designed for major merchants with very little technical skills.

Simply and direct, all you need is to open an account at Shopify

Hit the signup button, go through a basic setup wizard, and you’re done.

The process is very straightforward, once you get through that initial wizard, you will get access to the main dashboard. It’s from there that we can create your new eCommerce store, add new products, and so on.

On the other hand, Woocommerce isn’t easy of use and straightforward as Shopify.

Woocommerce is an open-source WordPress plugin and not a subscription-based platform like Shopify, which means that we need to handle two or more configurations before we can build an online store itself.

Basically, we need the following steps:

Domain name
Get a web hosting account
Install a WordPress
Install a chosen theme compatible with Woocommerce.

From there, we can start to work on the configuration of the ecommerce store. Unfortunately, these steps require some level of skills in order to make the online store operable.
