Drag and drop and editing it pretty nice. Nice for small company Ecommerce site. > > **Cons**: Lacking in more advanced features. Lacks sophisticated design and plugins like other platforms have. ----- ### "A great value for the money" — 5.0/5 > **Domenico** | *24 February 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: When I was looking into e-commerce platforms, a friend of mine recommended 3dcart. I had never heard of them but I'm glad I checked them out. They are located in the US, have great value for money and give control to build a great website. > > **Cons**: If you aren't "tech" savvy, the customization is better left to a professional. Other than that, I really like the product offering and enjoy the user interface. > > Rather than spend the money at Shopify, you can save a lot and get a great website to sell your online products. ----- ### "This was MUCH better when it was 3dcart. It's garbage now, no support, and clunky." — 2.0/5 > **Kristine** | *13 December 2022* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: What made 3dcart (bought by shift4shop) unique, was that there was a control for even the most minute function, allowing the user to have a tremendous amount of grasp of the overall customer experience. It was confusing at times, but that was offset by the relative ease of obtaining help from technical support when it got difficult. > > **Cons**: The CRM is absolutely stupid. I would get an email from a customer, sent to my email address, but in order to reply, I had to log back into the CRM screen. It was highly inconvenient, and I far prefer Shopify's version which pushes my response via email directly to the customer. I can respond in almost real time. > > I was a 3dcart customer, and the customer service, when they were owners, was very good. They were helpful, responsive, and patient. Shift4Shop who purchased them, is a complete 180 degrees from that. From flippant responses to legitimate questions on chat to ticket responses that take 10-14 days, there is simply NO value for the money. They bought out 3dcart, did nothing to improve anything, increased the price, and cut the customer service aspect of things. It's a shame, it used to be a good option for a small business owner who was willing to take the time to make a great site, for not as much $$ as the big outfits. HERE IS THE KICKER: I opted to leave about 5 months into the prepaid year ($830 or so). After requesting a refund for the remaining months, they denied me, saying "it's been more than 30 days since you purchased so we can't" which is a load of bull. It is a rule THEY made up. This company feels absolutely entitled to an entire year's service without actually providing the service. I was not surprised when I was denied, and it further confirmed that I had indeed made the right choice to leave this abysmal service. ----- ### "3dCart does E\_commerse BETTER" — 5.0/5 > **Silvanus** | *16 February 2019* | Dairy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: using 3dCart you have great opportunity and access to everything you need for creating a complete eCommerce website, online store and blog on a free of charge basis As an aspiring seller, you don't have to own a factory before you can begin selling products online. the dropshipping platform by 3dcart is awesome There is a top notch SEO on 3dcart that helps you optimize your website to be seen by more visitors and consequently convert more of them into paying customers within few minutes you can sign up and set up your account. then begin to customize it with the numerous tools already available on the platform to suite what you have in mind for your business > > **Cons**: The liability to be bear by small/upcoming seller using the drop shipping avenue could be more strictly dealt with such that the seller don't have to go through a lot of rigor to settle dispute that has to do wit orders. > > 3dcart is one of its kind, i can always recommend this app to everyone that cares to build an online presence for their business. You will never regret using 3dcart. everything you need to sell online is on 3dcart\! ----- ### "Build your Professional Online Store" — 5.0/5 > **Muddassar** | *18 May 2021* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 3dcart allows you to build your beautiful online store.
