It’s a hosted platform, which makes setup much quicker and simpler.
It also includes an easy-to-use interface and numerous templates, making it easy to set up a primary e-commerce site.

Room to grow
A simple store needs minimal customisation to launch, but Shopify's app ecosystem and development flexibility let you add complexity over time instead of needing a platform migration later.
You can integrate various apps into your store to add features.
While you can set up a simple store with minimal customisation, Shopify is also flexible, so you can make your store your own. With some development work, you can customise your store’s look, functionality, and user experience to suit your needs.
