The success of your online business requires good product management and a well-organized website. Planning to launch your e-commerce site, either for dropshipping or traditional sales ? We’ve prepared a list of the best CMS to sell online.
First, what is a CMS? A CMS (Content Management System) is a platform that allows you to design, modify, manage your website or app. Through this interface, you can easily create and publish content, manage your product sheets, your delivery options, and many other aspects. It’s an essential tool for your site!
1 – Shopify
This CMS stands out due to its large user community worldwide and the diversity of its features. This intuitive and comprehensive solution makes it easy to create an online store and provides access to numerous SEO optimization tools. The full customization of title tags and meta-descriptions is a significant advantage. Its simplicity makes it particularly suitable for Dropshipping, as well as brand or ODM sites. This solution is paid. However, it offers excellent value for money. You can try Shopify for free by following this link. If you already use Shopify, click here to install the Azameo app.
2 – Prestashop
Prestashop is a widely used e-commerce CMS in France. Its main quality is the user-friendliness of its administration interface. This service is also very comprehensive and offers a wide range of modules to enhance your store. Another advantage of Prestashop lies in the size of the community. Indeed, it is very easy to get help and advice through this means. This service has limitations, however. Its simplicity makes optimizing your SEO more challenging, and the interface still has some improvements to make in terms of responsiveness. The term “responsiveness” refers to your site’s ability to adapt to any device in a readable and pleasant way, whether on smartphones, tablets, or computers.

3- WooCommerce
WooCommerce is a WordPress extension that is currently the most popular globally. No need to know programming – it’s the easiest way to quickly create your online store. WooCommerce offers a wide choice of plugins to improve your service. All changes are easily made from your administration interface. However, there is a significant disadvantage: the extension alone is not enough to carry out all e-commerce tasks, so you’ll need to install other plugins (often paid and in English). Don’t panic! Being very popular, you will easily find several French-speaking communities on the internet and on Facebook. These support groups are a plus to assist you in creating your site using WooCommerce.

4- Magento
Magento is a content management system often used for large-scale stores. As one of the global industry leaders, it is arguably the most comprehensive solution on the market. Indeed, Magento can manage product catalogs with thousands of references, including multilingual and multi-currency functions in its base version. With its multiple features, it is very comprehensive but requires a significant investment of time and money. It is therefore not recommended for beginners.
5- Wizishop / Dropizi
Wizishop is a credible alternative to the main market services. This solution is aimed at stores that are starting and generate a small turnover. Its interface is very accessible, its basic functionalities are efficient, and its initial cost is affordable. The editor of Wizishop also offers a variant of its CMS oriented towards Dropshipping called Dropizi. Wizishop operates with a compensation system based on a percentage of the total turnover of your e-commerce if it exceeds 1500 euros. Over time, this can represent a substantial amount.
