Overall Satisfaction with BigCommerce

We are a construction supplies distributor with a 30-year history. We have always had brick and mortar stores, but we wanted to move into e-commerce. I choose BigCommerce after reviewing several options.
  • The best at options based products hands down.
  • Very competitive pricing.
  • Flexible customizations.
  • B2b leaves a lot to be desired. I had to basically hire someone else. I thought it was included, I have spent thousands more than planned to get it done right. If I had known what questions to ask, I would have been able to see the limitations. However, you can’t ask if you don’t know. A little misleading.
  • Some amazing features, if you live in the US. Lacking for Canada.
There are plans for every range of sales.
I have linked our site to a NetSuite via the Celigo Connector as well as several other apps offered from the BigCommerce App Store.
The options based products were the main seller for me. I now sell construction supplies like you would buy a shirt. Pick your options and get your product. Many of my competitors have dozens of pages of basically the same item with tiny differences.
BigCommerce is easy to use and requires no coding. There are many options for site setup and it is very easy to change after.
