Good integration with Stripe as well. > > **Cons**: Is a bit complex.

I and my staff can put the items online to sell, make changes, add shipping options, etc. Very user friendly. > > **Cons**: I want more options, like shipping costs/prices, to be put in there. Automatic handling fee and the like. I want to get more reports out of their system and have them be downloaded into Quickbooks. > > Good to great, I use it every day and am basically happy with it since I can fix/add/remove any item I am selling easily from anywhere. My website integrates with it well, which means my clients can buy items pretty easily via Ecwid. ----- ### "Simple shopping cart solution for website." — 4.0/5 > **Cynthia** | *9 September 2024* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ability to easily integrate a small product inventory into our own website. > > **Cons**: Incorporating shipping options/costs was a bit confusing. > > Overall experience has been very good.
