Building a webshop with Shopify
Shopify
Shopify is one of the most used e-commerce platforms at the moment. The largest international webshop platform has experienced exceptional growth. The Canadian provider of web store software has become one of the largest e-commerce software providers in the world since its launch in 2006. Shopify is integrated with a huge amount of paid and free extensions for sales, reporting, accounting, inventory and more. Due to all the latest integrations, extensions and options, the platform is also relevant and interesting for Dutch web shops. It's one of the top 3 parties in the Netherlands to start a journey in e-commerce with.
Like the comparable platform Lightspeed, Shopify offers the possibility to build your own webshop without any technical knowledge. You can use pre-existing themes to give your webshop the look and feel you want. Nevertheless, this platform also has room aplenty for a more complex environment, making it possible to innovate the front as well as the back of your webshop. Functionalities such as links with external stock management or cash register systems can be easily and quickly integrated by experts. We therefore also recommend hiring professionals to build your webshop to your own liking.
