WooCommerce development in Lausanne
The reason Lausanne businesses choose WooCommerce is usually that they need something a hosted platform will not do. In practice that requirement is often this one: shipped and unpaid treated as a normal order state, including what a return does to it, which is worth stating precisely before anybody chooses a theme.

Shipped and unpaid treated as a normal order state, including what a return does to it
The hosting decision follows directly from that.
A store carrying a requirement like this needs capacity for the requests it cannot cache — baskets, checkouts and signed-in sessions — rather than the headline figures most hosting is sold on. The businesses this applies to in Lausanne cluster around EPFL Innovation Park, and they are businesses using deferred payment providers more often than general retailers, which is why this particular requirement is the one that keeps coming up rather than a more obvious one. The part to settle before launch is who maintains it. Self-hosting moves the responsibility to you, and the businesses that struggle with it are not the ones that chose the wrong plugins but the ones that never budgeted for anybody to look after the result. All of that follows from one need. shipped and unpaid treated as a normal order state, including what a return does to it is why this is a WooCommerce project rather than a hosted one, and it is worth restating in the scope so that nobody spends the budget on things the platform already does perfectly well without any help.
We have no office in Lausanne. Our studio is in Rajkot, India, and every project here is delivered remotely — if a supplier who can attend your premises matters to you, that is a fair requirement and we do not meet it.

WooCommerce development questions from Lausanne
Three questions about the subject above. How we work, what it costs and who owns the code are answered on the service page.
Why WooCommerce rather than Shopify?
Control, and the specific requirement described above. If a business needs something a hosted platform will not do, self-hosting is the honest answer; if it does not, WooCommerce is more responsibility for no benefit. We have talked Lausanne clients out of it more than once.
Who hosts the store?
You do, in your own account, and that is deliberate. A Lausanne business should hold its own hosting, domain and credentials so that changing developer is an inconvenience rather than a migration. We will recommend and configure, and the account stays in your name throughout.
Do you have an office in Lausanne?
No. Our studio is in Rajkot, India, and Lausanne clients work with us remotely. We hold no Lausanne address and this page does not imply otherwise. It is stated at the top rather than buried, because that is where a reader forms the assumption and correcting it there costs us nothing.
