WooCommerce shines as a beginner-friendly shop system that can basically be used free of charge for designing and managing your own web shop. Since it is actually a WordPress plugin, users of the popular CMS should feel right at home.
A high degree of expandability also makes WooCommerce interesting for larger projects, along with an excellent community standing at the ready with help and advice, despite the lack of any official technical support.
