"Slatwall is the future of robust commerce on the web."
5/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

The best thing about Slatwall is its robustness and level of customization. Whether you're a novice looking for an out of the box solution, or an enterprise level company looking for an all around solution, Slatwall gives you the choice to go as simple or complex as the project requires.

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

Documentation has lacked a bit for some time, but that is significantly changing with the onset of new training, documentation, and videos that bring you up to speed quickly with Slatwall. That being said, Ten24 (the company behind Slatwall) has always been available via support at a reasonable price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Feature rich, flexible, customizable e-commerce platform available"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

Very advanced and extensible platform.

When comparing to similar features of other e-commerce platforms available, I found that Slatwall goes beyond the bare minimum required to make a "feature claim". One example is the discount engine and how powerful it is. An admin user can impose various advanced conditions on the order before customers qualify for discounts. Discounts can also be applied with discount codes or applied through automation.

Slatwall really lowers the risk for companies that might later discover limitations of other e-commerce platform after committing valuable long term human and financial resources to an inferior e-commerce platform.

What makes Slatwall a great choice is that it is open-source and highly extensible. There wasn't anything that couldn't be custom developed and added to it to meet our needs.

The internal code is very well organized and cleanly written and architected. Project developers can learn the conventions of the Slatwall platform very easily for custom modifications, behavior extensions, and integrating with 3rd-party services or other internal systems.

The activity in the Slatwall developer community is sufficient to get your questions answered when you run into a roadblock. The platform is actively developed. So it is continuously evolving and progressing. What was great is that we benefit by receiving those upgrades at no cost due to the open-source nature of the platform.

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

This is a very minor and wasn't unexpected. The initial installation for a demo was more of a challenge than anticipated. I discovered it was primarily due to not having various settings configured and that required some effort to run properly. The initial installation for someone unfamiliar with the platform might require more time than anticipated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to set up and customisation is great"
4/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

It's super easy to get started and have everything working, and it helps that the Support team are responsive and help you. A great feature is that a lot of Slatwall is customisable, meaning we can make it work exactly how we would like, even though a lot of it is perfect from the get-go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

Even though customisation is good, and it is, sometimes there are sections of code which is quite difficult to break through and I do feel you need a lot of developer experience to make the most of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Customizable, Professional E-Commerce System"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

Our company needed to replace a complicated events registration system with a flexible e-commerce system that could be highly customized to meet our organization's needs and integrate into our existing website. Slatwall fit all our challenging requirements even though we didn't use it in a typical e-commerce fashion. Its amazing customization characteristics enabled the creation of an amazing event registration and location management system, and it's flexibility will allow us to continue to push the envelope to build innovative, integrated systems that are easy for our users and our staff to use.

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

There's a definite learning curve but that's true of any complex software product in existence today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The ultimate a flexible e-Commerce solution!"
5/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

I can't pick one thing that I like best; I like that it's very well-written and they pay a lot of attention to quality control. I like that it's extremely extensible and supports a lot of payment processing options, and comes with great example shopping cart pages right out of the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

As a result of the complexity, it can be intimidating at times to work with (from a developer standpoint). But if you take the time to learn it, the paybacks are enormous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Needed a flexible platform to build booking and e-commerce site on. "
5/5
What do you like best about Slatwall Commerce?

What do you dislike about Slatwall Commerce?

Some of the settings that in product details don't always activate in the settings section this can sometimes cause issues with the functioning of the products in the site. Other than these small issues I have no real dislikes with Slatwall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
