    5 Things X-Cart Offers That WooCommerce Doesn’t

    Native Automotive Solution

    X-Cart offers a range of native automotive features that can significantly enhance the performance of your online business and are much easier and cost-effective to maintain. The X-Cart store has built-in Year/Make/Model Search and VIN lookup. These tools can be easily integrated with the design theme to ensure faster website speed, faceted navigation, and accurate real-time product search for auto parts customers. Additionally, X-Cart provides direct integrations with key automotive partners like SEMA Data, ASAP Data Network, AutoSync, Turn 14 Distribution, and others to streamline and automate your internal business processes.

    WooCommerce

    Although WooCommerce is also used as an eCommerce solution for automotive businesses, this platform may not be customizable enough to fit the needs of your growing business. According to sellers’ reviews, the main challenges with WooCommerce are slow website performance, inefficient catalog management, and few to no customization options.

    Scalable and Reliable System

    Your X-Cart store scales properly. Whether you are planning to expand your catalog or expecting an increase in traffic, we got you covered. Don’t worry about hitting your limits or potential downtime! With X-Cart, you get a stable yet configurable online shop bundled with a team of hosting experts monitoring your server daily and guaranteed 99,99% uptime.

    WooCommerce

    WooCommerce-based stores do not scale well to changing business demands. That causes their owners to experience risky outcomes. For example, updating your catalog or sudden boost in traffic can quickly exhaust your storage space and slow page-load speed, which may lead to crashes and lost sales.

    Ease of Customization and Upgrades

    With X-Cart, you don’t need any coding skills. X-Cart provides custom development services in-house, which means you get professional assistance from the original platform developers. Easy and smooth upgrades require just one click, no matter how custom your website is.

    WooCommerce

    While WooCommerce allows for extensive customization, you need either advanced coding skills or to hire third-party freelancers to make modifications to your core. In addition, extension upgrades cause incompatibility failures due to the difference in expertise level of those who developed them.

    Simple Navigation

    You can easily access X-Cart customer support via 24/7 phone, chat, ticket system, and email. Our in-house customer success team and support engineers work round the clock to ensure you get help whenever you need it.

    Fixing issues on WooCommerce requires relentless googling and browsing of help forums. The support is available mainly through the ticket system and response times are long, so many of the issues have to be self-solved.

    Affordable Maintenance

    X-Cart comes with rich core functionality and fully compatible plugins. Our clients report they save up to 50% of their eCommerce budget when setting up and maintaining their stores on X-Cart. Stop spending money on costly fixes. Invest into growth instead!

    WooCommerce

    WooCommerce core is free, but the build is very basic. Any essential feature you want to add is a paid plugin, which leads to a high setup cost. As you grow, hiring developers for customization projects and fixing constant plugin incompatibilities add to that cost. Solving security issues caused by third-party code and upgrading hosting plans every time you hit the storage limit adds more.

    Replatform and SCALE Easily with X-Cart

    WooCommerce may seem like a go-to option for a start. But do you have a plan for the future? As your business expands, so does your need for the scalability of your eCommerce solution. X-Cart is a reliable platform built on a solid foundation and supports you as you grow and scale.

    Security

    We take site security and data protection seriously. Rest assured that your X-Cart site is safe and complies with all the world’s latest security regulations.

    Cost Effectiveness

    The advantageous combination of cost, quality, and sustainability of X-Cart reduces the total cost of ownership and maximizes your return on investment.

    Accessible Support Team

    While Shopify is a large company with millions of users worldwide, they can’t provide personalized human service and a dedicated manager to each of their clients at an affordable price. X-Cart can.

    Limitless Flexibility

    X-Cart works as a well-coordinated mechanism that keeps all parts in sync. It accommodates any level of customization and working with other tools. Expand and scale your site without compromising its performance!

    Ease of Use

    The intuitive, code-free user experience frees you up from distractions on technical issues and concerns. Save time and effort on running your store and stay focused on your business growth.

    X-Cart vs WooCommerce [Q&A]

    • Which is better for eCommerce: X-Cart or WooCommerce?

       

      X-Cart specializes in eCommerce and is built with business entrepreneurs in mind. WooCommerce, on the contrary, was built as an eCommerce element to be later integrated into the WordPress blogging platform. Merchants choose X-Cart for its flexibility, scalability, compatible plugins, and 24/7 live customer support.
    • Is X-Cart a free shopping cart?

       

      X-Cart is a paid service yet cost-effective. While WooCommerce allows you to get started for free, it often lacks features that are essential for an online store. Extending its basic functionality is quite costly. X-Cart, on the other hand, comes with extensive default functionality and allows you to keep the cost of ownership down.
    • Can I migrate from WooCommerce to X-Cart without putting my business on hold?

       

      Absolutely! Our engineers have developed a secure 2-step replatforming process. The initial step is performed on our testing servers, so your store stays up and running throughout the entire process and keeps getting orders. After your review and confirmation, we move the store copy to our live server and perform the final data synchronization. Your store will be closed only for the period of updating DNS records, which usually takes a few hours. But this is necessary and inevitable regardless of the platform you are migrating to.

      We have a detailed guide on replatforming that explains the entire migration process in simple terms. If you have questions, feel free to contact our team.

    • Can I perform the migration myself using an automated WooCommerce to X-Cart migration tool?

       

      Yes. You can perform the WooCommerce data transfer with a store migration app by Cart2Cart or LitExtension.

      However, using our replatforming service can give you an extra advantage. We have an established workflow for migration projects that allows us to perform migrations at a lower price than you would pay for an automated shopping cart migration service. Additionally, our replatforming experts can also migrate your custom-developed design and features along with the basic data. Post-launch testing and professional support included.

    • Will X-Cart integrate with the tools I already use?

       

      X-Cart integrates with hundreds of eCommerce applications available at the X-Cart app store, allowing you to connect the tools you already use effortlessly. If you don’t see the required add-on in the app store, we can tailor a custom integration with the tool of your choice connected to your online store via API.
