The backend in Shopware 6 has a very user-friendly interface, which is especially visually appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Shopware 6 does not have the ability to access products assigned to a dynamic product group through it. In Shopware 5, however, the products were assigned to categories. This made it easier at the time to keep track, for example, when you had to go through all the products in a category if you wanted to change something in the text of only those items.

Thanks to its flexibility and modular structure, Shopware can be optimally tailored to our requirements. It offers many possibilities to customize layouts and functions individually, for example through plugins and extensions. The system also impresses us with its comprehensive support for different languages, currencies, and markets (ideal for international business models like that of KAISER). Features such as product filtering, flexible pricing, integrated marketing tools, and easy management of categories and variants are also more than practical. The strong community and broad support from third-party providers complete the overall package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We would like to have extended functions for the export and import of elements and texts, including more options for file formats (e.g., Datanorm, BMEcat) in addition to XML and CSV. A more sophisticated management of language selection would also be helpful. The same applies to the versioning of pages and elements, to better track and manage changes in the larger context of a medium-sized company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hi Isabelle,
Thank you very much for your detailed review!
We are very pleased that you can optimally use the flexibility and modular structure of Shopware for your international business model. We gladly take the feedback on the export/import functions and the management of language selection to further optimize Shopware.
We look forward to continuing to support KAISER in successfully implementing its requirements!
Best regards,
Your Shopware Team
We chose Shopware because we didn't want to miss out on the many advantages that a shop system offers. Especially the features for filtering products and the convenient search function of a shop system make this platform more attractive compared to a classic CMS system.
We were looking for a modern system that integrates harmoniously into the sophisticated system architecture and can score with extensive possibilities for designing content elements. Furthermore, at KAISER, the connection to other systems like SAP and PIM was very important to us in order to reduce the effort of content maintenance while simultaneously improving quality and avoiding redundancies.
Additionally, we also appreciate the possibilities for customization in terms of design and functionality through a variety of plugins and the diverse "ecosystem" of professional agencies and service providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The export function from the shop could be improved, for example, in terms of the configurability of required elements or texts, language selection, and also the possibility of versioning elements/pages to be able to track changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hello Wiebke,

After we restructured our e-commerce strategy, we decided to switch to Shopware 6 thanks to perfect advice from Karolina at Shopware. The system is intuitive to use and offers many features as standard. Extensions are also easy to implement through the Shopware Store. What we like best is that you can now manage a lot yourself. Therefore, Shopware gets 9 points and the consultation 10 out of 10 ;-) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Shopware 6 offers a user-friendly backend, making it easy to manage products and orders without extensive training. Additionally, its API is well-documented, allowing seamless integration with third-party services. The platform is highly scalable and flexible, providing a strong foundation for growing businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The migration from Shopware 5 to 6 is complex and requires professional assistance. Many extensions are only available via subscription, increasing long-term costs. Furthermore, achieving optimal performance may require hosting with a Shopware-certified provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's open source and that makes it developer friendly. Apart from this the UI is simple. Customization and third-party integration are fairly easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There might be some gaps in documentation. Customization which is also a pro and can be a con sometime as well because it's quite time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Shopware 6 has become more complex compared to Shopware 5 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Intuitive interface and many practical features. This allows a shop to be set up easily even without extensive basic knowledge and integrated into one's own processes. Good support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The new pricing policy under the Fair Usage Policy is questionable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The fast and extremely competent support is particularly worth mentioning. Questions and concerns are dealt with quickly and the solution orientation is impressive. The extension fits seamlessly into the existing system and offers clear added value, especially for users who already collect reviews. We are very satisfied with the performance of the plugin and the support provided by the development team. A clear recommendation for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient extension. Many thanks at this point! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
