Shopify Summer Edition 2024 is here!

To be honest, in a while ago shopify announced its own FY24 earnings, and less than expected, the price once jumped 30%, so far only slowly climbed up.

And that red horizontal clipped header of mine is signaling my expectation that shopify is probably going to have a hard time getting back to the '22 crest, and the shopify stock lift from the dividends of the epidemic is significant.

Back to the beginning, this time to troll shopify edition2024.

I was actually very resistant to using shopify at first because a lot of the experience was very anti-human, but of course it could be because I'm used to the even more anti-human wordpress, so whenever I see something that I think I can customize, it ends up informing me that it can't be changed.

What? Fine......

So I held some thoughts in my mind and went to see if this version had changed anything I wanted to change, and it turns out it hadn't, but little needs like nevermind, exporting orders without mailing lists, are pretty far down the list anyhow.

You can check the official website for details:Shopify Summer Edition 2024

Okay, on to the main event, the trolling session:

New feature 1: Fusion B2B+B2C+Retail.

It doesn't work. This poor interactive experience, it is difficult to do B2B, and B2B go certainly go WhatsApp or PayPal, bank transfer, why should you pay extra fees? You can help merchants reach what trust? It seems that there is no. (If there is hit me in the face)

Retail is not good to comment, really anyone who pays offline will use shopify. have a chance to go to the US to see if there are really cuties using it offline.

New feature 2: Users can choose the delivery method separately.

Epic Updates

New feature 3: AI added to Shopify help, AI images, AI customer service.

Experienced shopify AI's description, and honestly, it was pretty average, so average that I wanted to punch it in the face. So the scope of this update, in terms of help, pictures, customer service, is really quite useful.

At least, in the right direction. The actual experience is definitely still a piece of shit though.

Because at present to do a good job of e-commerce pictures, basically need SD fixed + MJ expansion, efficient AI is not to say that there is no, certainly can not be so cheap.

Customer service board, for the time being, I don't see an automated portal, for example if I can give a portal for customer service templates that can call shopify's products, so that I can customize the products that I am targeting to push to my customers, that still seems to be very helpful.

Added Feature 4: Changed Analytics Kanban

Stream Saving: changed the UI.

What about product analytics? I'd like to know the visit, add, favorite, payment info for my individual products, is there any? No, it's been a couple versions ...... or not, the premium plus members have it, but it's still a select few ......Good!

New feature 5: Theme Editor update

Changed UI, new secondary menu for modules, new detail tweaks, isn't this elementor?

New Feature 6: Visual Developer Page

This is pretty good, but most sellers don't use it, and it's kind of a minor update for plugin developers.

New Feature 7: Multi-Marketplace

Taxes, exchange rates, shipping, collections. Didn't really feel like it, it's just that. Because it all requires a PLUS membership and is extremely cumbersome, it's really ok for people who do business in multiple countries.

New Feature 8 & 9: Offline Business Tracking

It's none of my business.

Synthesis:

This update focuses on integrating the current functionality ofIntuition is changed UI. B2B + offline, especially offline function optimizationMentioned very much, and even gave AI down to the fourth to talk about, it seems, is really want to take the offline business as well.

But.Offline business basically has nothing to do with our cross-border e-commerce.. So this update is basically irrelevant to us. Analyzing the Q1 quarter earnings, basically it does do incremental work in the B2B market.

However, Shopify as a saas service enterprise, most of the domestic sellers will be treated as an excessive stage, once the independent station is really up, in fact, shopline, wordpress, or their own development site, are more appropriate, but also more cost-effective channels.
