Specifically, for example, to use this <strong>CMS<\/strong> it will be necessary to buy a <strong>domain<\/strong> and a <strong>hosting<\/strong> that host the store and that are set correctly so that the <strong>e-commerce<\/strong> works at its best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially, if you have to manage a large e-commerce it will be better to rely on a <strong>good hosting service<\/strong>, at higher costs. These activities, in most cases, require the help of an <strong>experienced developer<\/strong>, who knows how to set the <strong>parameters of the site<\/strong>, change the <strong>code<\/strong> and <strong>guide us in the choice of plugins<\/strong> that can be useful to our <strong>e-commerce<\/strong>. In addition, the management of <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong> requires upgrade and maintenance costs that should not be addressed by <strong>Shopify<\/strong> users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Shopify subscription cover <strong>all the maintenance activities of the site<\/strong>, offering extensive support both from the technical point, and through useful guides to guide you in all the activities and tools related to the management of your e-commerce; among these, for example, the <strong>Shopify<\/strong> <strong>Academy<\/strong>, a section of Shopify where you can find free courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Receiving support for the management of <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong>, however, is more complicated. Being a free tool there is no real support from a dedicated team; However, you can find extensive documentation within the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prestashop.com\/forums\/\">Prestashop Community Forum<\/a><\/strong> to address issues or consult the most known doubts regarding the use and management of the platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Graphic Customizations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of the freedom to customize your site,\u00a0<strong>both graphic customizations and function<\/strong>\u00a0(technical), both platforms are excellent choices that offer the possibility of modifying the template and the choice of functions to use, through dedicated settings or plugins (free and paid).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this sense we can say that, considering the cost of more <strong>code-side modifications<\/strong>, <strong>Prestashop offer more freedom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a graphic level, although both have a good number of templates to select, Prestashop seems to cover a wider choice; on the other hand, Shopify offers a greater ease of editing the template, through more usable customization tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical Differences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-683x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2797 lazyload\" width=\"376\" height=\"563\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-320x480.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-20x30.jpeg 20w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/it-it\/@n-voitkevich?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Nataliya Vaitkevich<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;on&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/it-it\/foto\/persona-persone-donna-laptop-6214371\/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Pexels<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we focus on the technical functions of the two CMS, we can say that <strong>both perform very well the fundamental activities of an e-commerce<\/strong>, such as, the ability to include a <strong>wide range of products<\/strong>, the <strong>tracking of an inventory<\/strong>, the <strong>management of the shipping activities<\/strong> and the possibility of management for the &#8220;<strong>abandoned cart<\/strong>&#8221; tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also on the <strong>SEO<\/strong> side, both products offer the possibility to carry out some important activities, such as the <strong>management of metadata<\/strong>, the <strong>Page Url<\/strong> <strong>customization<\/strong>, the <strong>management of images<\/strong> and the <strong>relative alt tags for the insertion of the descriptions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the strengths of <strong>Shopify<\/strong> is definitely the ability to use a large number of <strong>payment gateways<\/strong> to cover a large number of currencies, especially useful to sellers who want to sell around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Performance that PrestaShop can match only through the purchase of certain plugins, whose price, for these functions, is variable and depends on the type of tool you want to install.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this link you can find a list of plugins for installing and managing payment tools <a href=\"https:\/\/addons.prestashop.com\/it\/481-payment\">https:\/\/addons.prestashop.com\/it\/481-payment<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In contrast, one of the strengths of <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong> is the ability to, without having to install <strong>additional plugins paid or free<\/strong>, create and organize <strong>high-level multistore<\/strong>, with the ability to <strong>manage multiple stores<\/strong> connected to each other, and to modify them simultaneously (in case they share the same products), with wide benefits in terms of time and costs. To date this function does not seem to be so developed on <strong>Shopify<\/strong>: at the moment, however, to be used requires a third-party plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also good to remember that part of the functions used by Shopify also depends on the <strong>subscription chosen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, some activities such as the possibility of receiving <strong>detailed reports<\/strong> on user behaviour are only available with certain more expensive types of subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, even using the highest subscription, a limit of <strong>Shopify<\/strong> still remains the <strong>limited number of accounts to be associated with a single e-commerce<\/strong>; unlike <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong> that, in addition to not having an account limit for the management of an e-commerce, offers very wide possibilities of <strong>profiling<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last but not least, we remind you that both <strong>CMS<\/strong> offer the possibility to expand the functions of their stores through the use of <strong>third-party plugins<\/strong>, which can be installed on their e-commerce, both <strong>free<\/strong> and <strong>paid<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3.jpeg\" alt=\"prestashop shopify 3\" class=\"wp-image-2803 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3-640x426.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3-20x13.jpeg 20w, https:\/\/exafutures.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/prestashop-shopify-3-320x213.jpeg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Photo by&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/it-it\/@n-voitkevich?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Nataliya Vaitkevich<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;on&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/it-it\/foto\/persona-persone-donna-laptop-6214452\/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Pexels<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The choice on which e-commerce is better to adopt depends on the nature of your company and the resources that you have available. We do not refer only to economic resources, but also to the <strong>size<\/strong> and <strong>skills<\/strong> of <strong>your work team<\/strong>, especially if the choice is more likely to use a tool like <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This CMS, compared to <strong>Shopify<\/strong>, definitely requires more skills in terms of <strong>development<\/strong> and <strong>maintenance<\/strong>, and, used correctly, could be a valid tool to differentiate itself from its competitors, especially if in the future you intend to create a <strong>multistore<\/strong> with shops run by different teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All this, however, provided you have a good technical team to rely on: a wrong choice in this sense, in fact, could cost a lot in terms of time and resources over the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conversely, if you do not want to rely on a <strong>development team<\/strong>, or if you need to use a valid tool that is able to represent us internationally without the need for this has too specific customizations, <strong>Shopify<\/strong> is an excellent alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It must however be considered that even if the activities required by this CMS are not all difficult, for certain operations\u00a0<strong>the support of an expert might be necessary<\/strong>; however with <strong>times<\/strong> and <strong>costs much smaller<\/strong> than those required by a development of an e-commerce created with <strong>PrestaShop<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are interested in the subject but neither of the two <strong>CMS<\/strong> satisfies you or you want to learn more about it, you can read the <a href=\"https:\/\/exafutures.com\/en\/blog\">other articles<\/a> regarding the comparison between the various e-commerce platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Sources:<\/em><br><a href=\"https:\/\/ecommerce-platforms.com\/compare\/prestashop-vs-shopify\"><strong>https:\/\/ecommerce-platforms.com\/compare\/prestashop-vs-shopify<\/strong><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prestashop.com\/forums\/forum\/57-forum-italiano\/\"><strong>https:\/\/www.prestashop.com\/forums\/forum\/57-forum-italiano\/<\/strong><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/it.shopify.com\/prezzi\"><strong>https:\/\/it.shopify.com\/prezzi<\/strong><\/a><br><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nerdwallet.com\/article\/small-business\/prestashop-vs-shopify\">https:\/\/www.nerdwallet.com\/article\/small-business\/prestashop-vs-shopify<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the last blogposts we focused on the complex and articulated world of e-commerce platforms: to continue to give you useful information on this issue, today we analyze the differences between two CMS of different nature, Shopify and PrestaShop.
