What is a custom CMS eCommerce site?
A custom CMS site is a website built by a web development team from scratch, using a programming language and framework of their choice. So instead of using one of the popular CMS platforms like WordPress or Shopify, the site is built from the ground up.
What are the benefits of a custom website?
Custom solutions can be fully tailored to your needs, so you don’t need to compromise on exactly what you want. You won’t be trying to fit your needs into an existing template or design. You also won’t be paying for features that you don’t use, as is often the case with existing platforms.
Custom CMS can also offer advanced security. When done properly, custom software is generally more secure than a commercial or open-source CMS solution.
A custom-built website designed by a professional team can offer much higher performance, integration, and extensibility than a pre-packaged solution.
But a custom site is not for everyone. Generally, creating a custom CMS site is much more work than using an off-the-shelf solution. You will need to hire a team of designers to code the site, or if you are skilled, create it yourself. It takes more time and effort to create and will need constant work to keep the site up-to-date.
