There is pretty much nothing to dislike about such a good platform as it provides all thenecessary and out of box features . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BigCommerce solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have been researching a lot of products for my blog and one day i came across this product and just instantly gave it a try for my business.It is helping me streamline my e-commerce operations by providing a platform that simplifies store setup, management, and omnichannel selling. With built-in integrations for payment gateways, marketplaces, and CRM tools like Salesforce, I can efficiently manage my business without heavy development costs.The ability to scale effortlessly, automate processes, and manage multiple sales channels from one platform allows me to focus on growth rather than technical complexities, ultimately improving efficiency, revenue, and customer experience.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Ease of managing Products and Orders. It provides multiple ways to Import & Export your product in the BM. It is faster than SFCC. Minimalist and user-friendly UI makes it effortless to understand the functionality of the BM easily. Our client has moved from SFCC to Bigcommerce. Implementation was easy. It was our first project on Bigcommerce but with the help of Bigcommerce support. the transition was smooth and actually, we liked it over the SFCC. Bigcommerce feature to provide a storefront or you can customize it in your own way helps in integrating the site with the third party. Speaking of third party, Bigcommerce Marketplace provides multiple third-party apps that can be directly integrated into your project through Bigcomerce BM, that's the best feature of Bigcommerce. We have been using bigcommerce on a daily basis since 2023 our storefront went live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Any fixes requested take time from their side to be released. One issue that we found on our site was, that when the Product and Order level discounts are enabled both the order level discounts are applied on the MRP of the product but the rule says the Order level discount is applied only on the discounted product price after applying the product level discount. To give a fix for this Bigcommerce took more than 3 months to apply a fix from there side. Which is the only thing that i encountered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BigCommerce solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Minimalist and Easy to understand UI - Helps in knowledge transfer in less time from one to another member of the team. which is a bit frustrating in SFCC where the whole time is given to explain the BM.

2. Fast BM - Helps in the changes made in less time. Changes Due to smooth functionality changes done in BM reflect fast on the storefront.

3. Marketplace - Easy to integrate third parties that are in collab with big commerce. Reducing time in the integration process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Ease of use, ever expanding app marketplace. If there's something you want to do that Bigcommerce doesn't do out of the box, there is probably an app that does it. Customer support is absolutely top notch. Always friendly and very knowledgeable. Implementation was handled by our developer but it has been a breese to use ever since. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Not as customizable as we'd like on certain features. It's good that you can get an app to do what you want, but then you have to pay for that app to do what should be done natively. Also the gift card system leaves a lot to be desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Big commerces is an ecommerce platform not just a site to sell items. There are many plug ins that extend the functionality of the site, such as connectors to accounting software, more advanced inventory management.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

I think the pricing is an issue, the monthly pricing ramps up in price fairly quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BigCommerce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bigcommerce allowed us to sell to different channels of consumors , such as B2C and also B2B. They have a modern architecture in the backend which makes it easily trainable for users. The ability to use plugins to allow roll backs and such gives you piece of mind that if you mess up you can roll something back. There online live chat support has been very helpful and in most cases if I have to submit a ticket, it is answered that same day with a real answer not some copy and paste.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Ease of use aside, Big Commerce has been an invaluable part of our growth. Its integration capabilities have been deployed seamlessly across a myriad of apps including Klaviyo, Search Spring and a multitude of other automation tools employed across the site which has been crucial in our being a low cost model. The platforms open API enables easy customisation allowing us a much clearer insight into customer behaviour and internal business performance. several features of BigCommerce have directly contributed to our business growth. The platform’s scalability, with its ability to handle high-volume transactions without sacrificing speed or performance, has been a game-changer as our business has expanded. Its inbuilt SEO tools and mobile optimization features have significantly improved our online visibility and search rankings. Plus, with BigCommerce’s advanced product management features and automation capabilities, we’ve been able to manage inventory and orders efficiently, helping us scale without increasing our team size an increasing costs.

What problems is BigCommerce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Big Commerce is our soruce of truth and the platform has been perfect for a low margin - high volume business like ours.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Running a business and an online store is much less stressful using Bigcommerce, I have used Volusion and Shopify, and the most valued service that Bigcommerce offers that is next to none in comparison is the ability to reach out to their qualified tech support team for assistance whenever I am snagged by an issue I found or created. Having live tech support just a phone call away is very comforting on a busy day when you don't always have time to search for the correct documentation to help you solve a problem. Our customers also benefit from this service as it reduces the chance of downtime and errors during their shopping experience with us.

I enjoy the shared variants that allow us to reduce product listing data and ease of updating any changes to the function of how the variants are displayed and the ability to create custom rules for a specific variant such as price difference when selected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Some of the backend functions like not being able to tag customers with a visual color-coded rating system to easily identify customers by their known customer service history - Good Egg Bad Egg. There are a few other things but they are small in the scheme of what makes Bigcommerce our preferred e-commerce platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BigCommerce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping us reach out to a global customer base and live human tech support is always there to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
