Average service that could be much better
Here´s my review after buying the highest tier and trying to use this app for the last 2 years:
THE CONS:
- They promissed us all features and growth plan updates, but deliberatelly removed some plugins from our plan, forcing us to upgrade to "Enterprise plan".
- Customer support is non existant. Posts in the facebook group are rarely approved.
- Server is constantly with interruptions. Nowadays is becoming better but there was a time where everyday there was store downtimes. I emailed support several times without any response.
- Shipping fees are very basic, only with 1 fixed price. If you ship to different countries, then you will need 1 store for each country, which is a major inconvenient and makes it impossible to have a proper international store.
- Theme builder requires coding knowledge. Normal users are not able to use it.
PROS:
- The sites are very fast
- Launching a store is super easy. Compared with woocommerce this is a 1000th times faster. Can be done in less than 1 hour.
-UI/UX is great. Easy to navigate.
I´ve been wanting to use this freely without indrances, but without a friendly theme builder and without advanced shipping fees is impossible.
Hopefully they will fix it this time.

Sep 30, 2024Hey,
I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts after using Dukaan for the past two years. It's not easy hearing where we’ve fallen short, but it’s important for us to understand how we can do better.
Plan Changes: I hear you on the frustration with plugin availability. Our goal is to keep our offerings clear and beneficial to users, so we’re currently revisiting this to make sure that upgrades and access are as fair and transparent as possible.
Customer Support: This is something we’ve actively been improving. We've had challenges, especially during high growth periods, but we’re scaling up our support channels, including better moderation and engagement in our community groups.
Server Uptime: It's great to hear that you're noticing improvements. We’ve put a lot of effort into making the platform more stable, and while there were definitely rough patches, I’m confident we’re on the right track now.
Shipping Fees and Theme Builder: The fixed shipping fees and theme builder limitations are valid concerns. We're working on more flexible shipping options, and our goal is to simplify the theme builder so that coding knowledge isn’t a barrier for customization.
Thanks for sticking with us, and know that we are taking your feedback seriously. I hope the updates we’re working on will bring the ease and flexibility you’ve been looking for.
Best, Suumit
