We deal in firearms. I tried Shopify first back in 2016 and that was a miserable mistake, very firearm NOT friendly there. Then we went to Volusion the next month and we were quite happy there for 7-1/2 years and several million $ in sales. The issue is Volusion was losing …
While all of these platforms have their advantages, they couldn't provide the level of international shipping and the multiple shipping options needed by my clients with advanced e-commerce stores. Those two major features were the reason we went with BigCommerce in the first …
BigCommerce is way better than 3dcart, it was comparable to Shopify but with the new product promotions available it is better than Shopify now. It is better than Magento in that you do not need dedicated programmers to make simple changes to your store!!! The best part about …
I looked at these companies and some others to see what they offered and for how much. After watching lots of videos and reading lots of pages, I started to narrow down the list. I was still unsure so took a chance and took the free trial with BigCommerce; right away I was …
BigCommerce gave me a better looking website. It also integrated with Square, which was a huge factor. They also allowed my business, which includes CBD products, which other platforms did not allow.
I chose BigCommerce over Shopify because I felt there were more built-in apps in BigCommerce. Other than that, I felt that both solutions are very similar.
BigCommerce combines the ease-of-use that you get form Shopify, with the ability to handle large numbers of Sku's like a custom Magento site might have.
But unlike a custom site like Magento, you don't need a coder or developer for every little change you want to make to the …
We chose BigCommerce over competitors due to customization and cost. We're able to have the site we're looking for, easily managed within our marketing team without hours of tedious revisions.
I tried using an open-source platform and debated using this instead of BigCommerce. The open-source platform would be cheaper on a month to month basis and much more flexible when it came to customization, but was far more expensive to get initially set up and required us to …
BigCommerce even with add-ons such as a PIM and B2B functionality wins for small businesses on affordability and ease of use. No servers or updates to worry about and no expensive agencies to pay. This being said, if the budget were no issue, for larger organisations Magento is …
We switched from Shopify due to the restrictions they implemented on our industry. While we spent tens of thousands of dollars investing in our Shopify store, we can't have them cutting us off anytime they want. We reviewed WooCommerce, but didn't like the storefront or …
BigCommerce is quick, easy to setup with tons of features, easy to integrate with other applications. All of these great features are available for very less as compared to other application. We have tried multiple application but BigCommerce is one of those who never …
We have stuck with Big Commerce due to the amount of work and build outs we have created with the system. The issues we have come across do not raise too many red flags that we would need to switch programs at this time. If we do it is due to the promotion/ sales restrictions, …
