I am a plant collector. A few years ago, I created a website on ****** to publish my catalogs. I liked it, but it wasn't suitable for sales, and I needed to sell my excess... I started thinking about changing platforms. Then they refused to extend the contract — they stopped working with Russia. I urgently needed to find a new place before the New Year. I was looking for a simple online store for a few hundred "products," with a cart and the ability to add many photos. The site had a fairly extensive menu (12 sections), two-tiered. It contained both catalogs and articles. I tried many builders, and now I’m glad my intuition led me to Shop2YOU! I created a demo version here, and then I couldn't refuse — the site turned out to be convenient for both me and my customers. It has many advantages! The most important for beginners is the quick and responsive support! I tried not to abuse it and initially tried to figure things out on my own. Many things are intuitively clear. And I really liked that! Only for complex questions did I reach out to support. Surprisingly, the response came either instantly or within 10 minutes! Moreover, after signing the contract and paying for the year, the attitude didn't change. The answers remained just as prompt, clear, and understandable. I mostly communicated with Dmitry — a big thank you to him for his patience, attention, and respect for clients. Another important advantage of Shop2YOU is the ability to order various changes to the site to better meet my needs. Small questions are resolved for free, while labor-intensive ones are paid. Each time, I assessed whether a particular "ribbon" was worth the money and made a decision. I wanted to make the site as user-friendly as possible. Perhaps I came up with some unnecessary features. I recommend making only the most important changes at first, and the rest after launching the site. This makes it easier to understand the necessity of certain adjustments. Of course, one of the main advantages of this builder is the ability to create a site independently (I didn’t transfer the old one, but made a new one), without the help of professionals. Now, having figured things out, I can make changes to the site (of course, those that don’t require programming), update and change information. I also want to note that I hesitated for a long time to start the demo version. It is offered for free for a month. During that time, I had little free time, and I was afraid I wouldn't make it. Fortunately, in the chat, they explained to me that if I didn't finish within the month, I could take the demo version again for another month! This gave me confidence, and I got to work — and I made it. My site has been functioning for 3 months now, and I am very glad I made the right choice! The builder is indeed not complicated for beginners. To inspire you, I’ll say that if I, a seasoned retiree, could do it, so can you! My choice was largely influenced by the reviews of other people, so I decided to leave my review. I hope my experience will be helpful to someone. I wish everyone good luck and joy in what you do! And to the Shop2YOU team — further success and prosperity!
