In today’s market, there are two main types of platforms for ecommerce business owners:
- Fully hosted ecommerce platforms
- Open source ecommerce platforms
Shopify is a fully hosted ecommerce platform and provides distinct advantages over open source ecommerce platforms.
From deciding what hosting service to use to importing products from existing storefronts, launching or redesigning an online store comes with many challenges that entrepreneurs may not be expecting. Luckily, hosted ecommerce platforms offer a turnkey solution that removes many of these early-stage barriers.
By going with a hosted ecommerce platform, you will have:
- The opportunity to start selling quicker. Hosted platforms offer a simplified store setup process and easy day-to-day management, through robust content management systems (CMS) that are uncommon when compared to their open-source counterparts.
- An all-in-one commerce solution. Merchants receive native hosting, shopping cart functionality, and sales channel integrations with no additional fees or extra work. This can save significant time and financial investment that would otherwise exist with open source platforms.
Hosted ecommerce platforms offer several advantages for optimization compared to open-source options, including these key benefits:
- Easy access to extensions. These can be quickly built to your specification through robust third-party apps and integrations.
- An ever-evolving product. Hosted platforms like Shopify host hundreds of thousands of stores, and regularly push new improvements to ensure all sites built on Shopify conform to industry-leading best practices.
Hosted platforms simplify store maintenance so that you can focus on what matters — running and growing your online businesses. In general, most hosted ecommerce platforms offer merchants:
- A team behind the business. Going hosted means you’ll gain access to 24/7 technical support and ongoing platform maintenance to reduce downtime and keep online businesses running smoothly.
- Industry-leading security. Hosted platforms look after SSL certification, security patches, and more, to ensure you can rest easy knowing your business and customers are secure.
