Online shopping is becoming increasingly popular, whether in the B2B or B2C sector. From fashion and travel to technology products, software solutions and training courses, today's companies can use an online shop to quickly and efficiently sell products and services around the world while offering customers a digital shopping experience.
The shop system of Magento is the most widespread worldwide. W4 also works with this shop system, but not only: There are different shop systems, for example W4 also works with Shopify. It is always important to consider the individual case: Which shop system makes the most sense for which company? How large or small should the online shop be? What should be sold? W4 can advise you in these questions.
