Great UI - Very Easy to use but a long way to go
Setup was simple and straightforward but there is too much lacking at the moment.
- Tax: California has over 540+ tax zones and right now there is only a way to set a fixed tax rate. This for me is the deal breaker and unfortunately will have to return to this product at a later date.
- No Search of Filter options for products. I have a lot of stores with 300+ products
- No Digital Products
- Lacking a range of Payment Gateways
- No Import options from Woo
On the product description it shows it's launched since 2021.
I believe that it is a good product and will grow - I love the UI. But it's not production ready. My customers would be upset with me if I messed up their tax collections. Their current solution is to use TaxJar on the Roadmap. This defeats the purpose of being a low cost alternative if tax jar charges $350 per 1000 transactions to calculate taxes annually.
I wish Kelley and his team the best of luck! I'll check back in a year to see the progress. Hopefully the AS campaign will allow them to have funding to be production ready.
Here is a comparison between Vanilla WC vs Vanilla NC:

Jul 2, 2024Thanks for your review Egglan!
We are excited about the future of North Commerce. We are also currently working on our tax feature that will make what you are describing for calculating California taxes much easier.
Search / Filter is coming with our Gutenberg Blocks and Bricks Modules.
Digital products are also coming shortly after we launch our checkout modules.
I do agree now that we are getting more people requesting migration from Woo that we should create a one-click import plugin.
We announced we were starting the project in 2021 and just officially launched our production version in January of 2024.
Thank you for supporting us! We are excited to release new updates to support you
