If I’m familiar with WordPress, would I find Shopify easier or harder?

WordPress vs Shopify vs UltimateWB

If you already know WordPress, it’s natural to wonder whether Shopify will feel easier, harder, or just different. The short answer is: Shopify may feel easier at first, but more limiting over time - especially if you’re used to WordPress flexibility. There are other ways to reduce the maintenance requirements of a WordPress website, and in general just be easier, without reducing flexibility and customization - like using UltimateWB.

Here’s a detailed comparison.
