I've tried some of the commercial varieties like Soyatoo but I don't care for the flavour. One recipe that I created by accident when making a raw vegan recipe worked quite well. You take some desiccated coconut and almonds (about 50:50) and blend it to a thickish milk (not too thick, just bit thicker than normal milk). Then you strain the mixture (you can use the pulp for cookies, cakes, etc.) and leave it the fridge for a while and it becomes thick and creamy. Also I thought the coconut flavour was less strong, perhaps because of the almonds. It uses far fewer nuts than most nut whipped cream recipes that are around so it's cheaper.
