If you have a physical business, like a shop on the street, and you want to take it online but don't know how to do it, you have a couple of options. You could contact a developer or set up an account on Shopify and create your online store there.
The solution is highly customizable for our store’s e-commerce needs. We don't need to write any code as all the required features are already inbuilt. The front end can be easily customized. Moreover, this tool offers built-in integrations with payment gateway, messaging services like SMS and email, and logistics integration.
Previously, Shopify had a limitation of 200 product variations, which posed a challenge for businesses with multiple product options like different colors and sizes. However, they have increased this limit to 1,000 variations, greatly improving the platform's functionality. Besides that, I don't see any major issues that need improvement.
There are some areas where improvements could be made. Currently, the platform only supports three product variants, and having the option for more variants would be beneficial. Additionally, we have to rely on external plugins for reviews and ratings, which could be more convenient if they were built-in.

I would like to see a feature that allows us to access all of the platforms in Shopify, like Facebook and Instagram messages, so we can easily reply to connect to our customers.
