    It is open source and does not have the limitations that shopify has as far as what the actual software can do. It also does not have the monthly fees and per transaction fees that shopify has.

    The open-source keeps my costs down, but there is a lot of support if needed. The platform is intuitive and the community is fabulous.

    I don't like prestashop as an alternative because it is not an ecommerce platform, only open source free software which not excessively free to users, mainly it has limited online store builder platform where do not have access to make editor.

    WooCommerce is free (but you need WordPress hosting which is around $3/month), there are tons of free plugins and themes and there is loads of online support, WooCommerce is the most popular eCommerce solution in the world, even more popular than shopify.

    With Vepp you can easily install WordPress, assign a domain, and get a free SSL. You'll be sure your website is stable and secure. Vepp will take care of technical details. It can set up a server, install a CMS, configure a domain and an SSL, while you can focus on what’s truly important for you: create a website, promote it, and populate it with content.

    Vepp is better than Shopify. This is also a content system for website, BUT Vepp allows you to manage your server as well

    Vepp is a full-fledged CMS. You manage your data, you can change the IP address, hosting. You are not limited by the capabilities of the constructor. Use any CMS and code any website!
