My Conclusion about WooCommerce
There are alternatives (WP e-Commerce) but nothing comparable to the WooCommerce perspective ecommerce themes and extensions. For ecommerce WordPress, WooCommerce is a notch above, it is an excellent free plugin to easily create a shop full e-commerce, which pales in comparison to face yet specialized competitors.To improve or enhance your shop, WooThemes offers dozens of additional plugins, for example: add a countdown timer, flash sales, product galleries, slide products. To qualify, you will need to hand in his pocket, from $29 to $129 for the most expensive.
Another detail that is important, one of the paid plugins that manages the rules Blue Card, it is Ogone, price about $79.
In short, Woo is recommended if your product references do not exceed 1000 units, beyond that, I think it is better to turn to the giants of the genre, though...
WooCommerce is an excellent ecommerce plugin to easily create a shop in complete WordPress and does not pale in comparison to competitors.
