Likelihood to Recommend For the majority of our customers they shop online, so for us to be able to offer an account walkthrough via Teams, it has been truly powerful stuff for our sales team to hop on a Teams call and run through the account functionality with a customer for functions such as cost control measures, quick lists, saved baskets, recurring orders etc. The customer can really get a thorough understanding of the features available and opt for what they need to best suit their purchasing needs. We utilise this everyday and the feedback on functions has been that they haven't seen this before from any online business supplier they've ordered with before such as Viking, Lyreco etc. It doesn't work as well for customer retention, as the orders are transactional and there are no follow-up emails you can automate as an email template in EvolutionX, this would be valuable to growing business further.
Read full review Any business that needs to keep track of orders and payments would benefit from Shopify Plus. Customers information, orders, and payments are all saved and available for reference. You are able to refer to past orders to review trends and offer future purchase suggestions. Shopify Plus is also easy to use so it does not take long to train employees how to use this system.
Read full review Pros Running a promotion is really easy and simple. Product search is great. Integration with many other software and services is well supported. Read full review Scales incredibly well. Forget about hardware concerns, load balancing, downtime, etc. and focus on eCommerce. We've seen merchants go from a few thousand dollars per month to having million dollar days, all on Shopify without having to worry about performance or scaling systems. Great new features consistently being added, ahead of the curve on almost everything Solid API to build on and work with, a few annoying quirks here and there for super complex use cases but overall very well documented and works well Most Merchant Success Managers are good and genuinely want to be helpful A fantastic user interface, very logical and easy to use Tons and tons and tons of out of the box integrations. Easily the best integration marketplace of the e-commerce platforms. There's an app for that. Read full review Cons Support post-production has been lackluster at best. Most features work well, but some are missing fundamental elements. Quick lists are a prime example. Quick Lists are a fantastic way to encourage B2B orders online, but not being able to organize where an item exists within a list almost makes it unusable for a large portion of our customers. No account payment options! Read full review The Account Managers/Reps have become more scripted and seem like they are busier and handling more clients than before. It doesn't seem as personal and special anymore like when we first upgraded to Plus. Shopify still has missing features in their software that might not have an app in their app marketplace available that fills this void. The 24/7 support doesn't seem as dedicated as they once were.

Read full review Alternatives Considered To be frank, we haven't tried any other products apart from EvolutionX, as this was one of the tested software's during the initial phase. We didn't have a chance, and we don't really want to switch between any other products. We are happy with EvoX. The reason we choose EvoX was, pricing, support and the integrations offered.
Read full review Shopify had the quickest go-to-market and most robust API among the products we compared. CommerceCloud required a VERY LONG integration phase that we just didn't have time for.
BigCommerce fell short on the number of features and API coverage that we needed. Overall Shopify gave us the most bang for the buck.
Read full review Return on Investment With account setup this has saved a lot of time, where typically it may have taken 10 minutes to setup an account, customer can now do this themselves and even make changes, our old site relied entirely on a staff member and this has therefore reduced overhead With exposure to Fusion Data our categories have grown hugely, particularly Beeswift into workwear where we never sold any workwear but the rare incidental from VOW Wholesale, we've been allowed to grow into other categories more frequently with returning customers and new. Read full review Shopify Plus has been a very cost effective solution for us. As our business grows, it's easy to train new hires on how to use Shopify Plus. What we've lost in the missing features of Shopify we've made up for in the other areas. Read full review ScreenShots
