Why I Chose ShopEngine for my site (And Why You Might Want To)😀😀😀

I bought ShopEngine because I trusted the company behind it—and for good reason! They've a big dev team that's been developing for the WordPress ecosystem for a while now. I had previously used their GutenKit plugin and loved it. Pairing both together, I can achieve really beautiful results.

Here, I’ve written some key reasons so you can decide whether ShopEngine is the right fit for you or not:

✔️Gutenberg Support
Okay, I know some of you may not love Gutenberg, and that’s fine. But for me, this is critical. Gutenberg is fast, available right after installing WordPress, and best of all—no bloat. It keeps your site lean and helps ensure your site stays manageable in the long run. Sure, Bricks is an exception, and I really hope they add support for Bricks soon. But for now, Gutenberg works beautifully!

✔️Production-Ready
This isn't some brand-new product fresh out of beta. ShopEngine has been around for a while—about 6 years—and it's been actively maintained and developed since then. You can confidently use it in production, knowing it’s not going to break the moment you need it most. And you can expect it to continue evolving. Their changelog proves how consistent they are with product development.

✔️You Can Expect It to Be Around for a Long Time
Unlike SaaS products that rack up infrastructure costs and result in those dreaded “heavy-heart” emails, ShopEngine is plugin-based. That means no unexpected costs. And since they already have MRR (monthly recurring revenue) customers, there’s a low risk of it disappearing. You can expect it to be available for a relatively long period of time.

✔️A Feature-Packed Solution(That saves time, money and conflict)
ShopEngine doesn’t just do one thing—it’s got a suite of advanced features(you can extend more advanced feature with GutenKit). Not only does this save you from buying a bunch of extra plugins, but since everything is made by the same team, plugin conflicts are practically non-existent. And if there is a conflict, they’ll fix it quickly because they know their product inside and out.

They’ve recently released an advanced coupon feature, which I find incredibly useful. I’ve requested more features like this—it’s one of the things that makes the product stand out.

✔️Ready-Made Patterns and Templates
They offer a large number of beautiful, pre-made patterns and templates, which save a lot of time. Just import the page, customize it, and make it your own.
