5 What are the benefits of PrestaShop over WooCommerce? PrestaShop was “born” as an ecommerce platform It is a standalone ecommerce software, while WooCommerce is a plugin that should be installed on WordPress. PrestaShop provides multilingual functionality out of the box While Presta can “speak” 40 languages by default, WooCommerce requires a plugin for translation. PrestaShop has multistore capabilities Prestashop enables you to handle a group of stores in the same admin area; you can set up stores for different countries you sell to and have a custom domain or subdomain for each shop. PrestaShop allows handling more products PrestaShop is designed for more complex eCommerce projects and can cope with hundreds of thousands of items without a hiccup, while for WooCommerce this might mean a serious load for a server. All in all, while WooCommerce looks like a more lightweight and widely spread eCommerce solution suitable for newbies, PrestaShop caters to more complex requirements and provides more sophisticated eCommerce functionality (which, though, may need professional services to maintain).
