At Ecommerce CEO, we are dedicated to providing our readers with accurate, trustworthy, and valuable information in the fields of ecommerce, digital marketing, and related areas. Our review process is designed to uphold the highest standards of integrity and ensure that our recommendations are reliable and beneficial to our audience.
Research and Analysis:
We believe that objective data matters when we evaluate products and services. That data comes from primary and secondary research. We conduct extensive research on the products or services under consideration. This includes studying their features, benefits, and potential drawbacks. We delve deep into their functionality and relevance to the ecommerce and digital marketing sectors.
At Ecommerce CEO, we also run tests and surveys to get our primary data.
Once we get raw data, we convert them into meaningful ratings:
- Overall score: we consider both objective and subjective ratings when we provide an overall score. We are not just pulling a number out of a hat. We use weighted scores to create a final score, which is based on all the below.
- Performance scores are based on qualitative data such as speed performance scores, load times, uptimes, etc.
- Features scores are based on having the feature included or not. Features were rated higher if they were included free, and lower if they were paid add ons.
- Ease of use is based on beginner friendliness, support available, partners/community involvement, app/plugins and their ratings, certified partners/community base, and developer friendliness.
- Integrations looks at the ability to connect and synchronize with major online sales channels and platforms.
- User ratings: this is based on actual ratings from users of the software or service. Users are able to share their thoughts with other Ecommerce CEO readers.
- Value: Because of the nature of reviews, there has to be some subjective datapoints, this is the only one we use. This is our take on who this product is best suited for and the respective price points. For example, a provider may offer less features (and have a lower feature score), but deliver more value at the price point compared to higher priced options.
