What do you like best about BigCommerce?

The user interface. Easy to set up and maintain, love the dashboard and the ability to view the store and back to the admin console to check how things are looking as updates are happening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

The fact that we can only have a limited number of carousel images (5 only). I would like to see this expanded to at least 10 to keep it interesting for visitors. Also, I would like to be able to have more sub-menu levels available to do more product groupings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Fully functional ecommerce facility, linking with third party suppliers for payment gateways, making the transactions seamless for the consumer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

My store was easy to build, and I have over 300 customized product pages

My store looks amazing

My store is easy to access by my customers, navigate, and complete purchases

Adding products and web content is a snap

Making changes to product and web content is a snap

Customer support is over the top - extensive help pages, but never long at all if you want to talk with someone - AND the "someones" always really know what they're doing and are extremely courteous

Analytic tools are amazing. In an instant I can see what's going on, make comparisons of different business time periods, and track my business growth

Can easily find past orders for clients and customers, customer info (never CC info, which is NOT stored!)

Very easy to process orders for my customers if they prefer to do it that way

Merchant gateway processing options are basically anything you want

New pricing about to be initiated is kind to me and appreciative of my loyalty

Finally, I can't think of ONE negative and would recommend BigCommerce to anyone serious about running a smooth Internet business without the headaches

I haven't taken advantage of their SEO services, but that's just me and my business priorities/time

I haven't taken advantage of their shipping services, but that's just because I already had a system in place

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Absolutely nothing. When I've needed help with some of the trickier aspects of products, such as - for example - product options and option rules, I've quickly been able to become informed. Sometimes it's simply searching the extensive online support resources, but if time is short and I need help NOW, it's a phone call away and no one says, "You could have found this out for yourself with a little more digging..."

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

I really don't feel like I have business problems, but I've been using BigCommerce as my e-store host for several years. Maybe that's why! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Bigcommerce gives you a completely complete set of e-commerce equipment “out of the field” that packs a huge punch. In our view, out of all the different e-trade developers, Bigcommerce offers the most helpful and realistic tools that you'll absolutely use – all covered as part of their monthly bundle. From integration with email newsletter gear (vehicle responders), developing coupons / advertising campaigns, unlimited product variations (e.g. unique t-blouse colorations and sizes), transport and tax configurations, comfy price gateway integrations, handling returns, keep data reporting, social sharing, product desire listing, product critiques, and many others. They surely set you up with a whole lot of tools you need that will help you succeed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

- negative customer service/guide – “Failure to remedy” turned into a not unusual word amongst those, with many clients wondering if the Bigcommerce help personnel is informed enough to handle technical problems at all. loss of 24-hr stay guide on Sundays became an difficulty as nicely.

-Bland Templates – a few human beings have complained approximately how average the unfastened

-tough to customise – customizing Bigcommerce templates. You want to understand some HTML/CSS if you plan on making any fundamental changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BigCommerce:

Bigcommerce is not without its wrinkles (unimpressive net design, questionable customer service, egregious web reproduction,) however it has earned its position as a pinnacle contender inside the crowded buying Cart scene. It has executed so with its jam-packed characteristic listing, strong search engine optimization, and ease of use. The month-to-month fee point is commensurate with their region in the marketplace; it is very reasonable for the brand new/small on-line store, yet it's miles scalable sufficient to serve any growing commercial enterprise. And the current plunge in per-swipe transaction costs inside the preferred Plan is a particular advantage for startups in search of a powerful shopping cart that gained’t undermine them right out of the gate. Bigcommerce honestly earns each superstar that we can deliver it. i might advise it for maximum organizations sorts, with just a few reservations in particular cases.

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

even though Bigcommerce already provides you with a complete set of tools (more than a variety of its competitors), need to you experience that you want extra, they have an App keep which you “bolt on” greater advanced equipment to take your keep to the next level. those Apps are created through 1/3 birthday celebration builders, and consist of extra superior gear for accounting, transport, merchandising / advertising, order management, stay chat, e mail advertising, analytics, and so forth. You don’t always want them as Bigcommerce’s simple tools are already enough, but those Apps are in reality accessible while you are geared up to scale your commercial enterprise to the following stage. these tools assist you sell your merchandise greater efficiently, automate your every day mundane duties even in addition, and simply offers loads more firepower with out taking over any extra of a while. some of those Apps are loose, and some are paid. however they're properly worth the charge as they could assist develop your business even as liberating up some time.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

We were with Yahoo (now Aabaco) for about ten years and wanted to make a switch for some time, but the process seemed daunting.

However, when Yahoo decided to sell off to Aabaco, that gave us a reason!

We researched many options and landed with Bigcommerce because it is local in Austin, Texas, and more importantly, their platform is user friendly, and customer service is unsurpassed. I feel, as a new customer, like they want our business. They seem as though they want us to succeed and this gives us security to put our financial lifeline into their hands. I'm glad we made the decision to make the change - wished we would have done it sooner! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

When they migrated our site, it did take some time to work on it to get it right. At first, we were paying for our regular plan while we were working on the site for three months (we engaged in the switch during the busy time of the year for our business) and we wasted $1350 - but then, they offered us a pause plan and that's what we are on now, giving us time to work on our site before launch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BigCommerce:

I would recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being on an antiquated system with Yahoo, we have found there are more options available to us, the site looks fresh, and more functional. Again, the customer service is the best we'll ever find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Very friendly user interface. Little or no learning curve. You can pretty much jump right in and start creating. And when you do get into a jam, plenty of documentation and very helpful support staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Well... it won't do everything... but if you know a little HTML and are willing to roll up your sleeves, you can pretty much accomplish everything necessary for an effective e-commerce store. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BigCommerce:

We looked at a lot of options during the transition and Bigcommerce was hands down the best option for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We've not only been able to solidify our presence and brand using Bigcommerce, we've also effectively built "boutique" sites for our customers which really solidifies our position as solutions provider in their eyes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Everything looks very attractive and is aesthetically pleasing. The set up guides and videos have improved a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

It's very difficult to get customer help when you need to talk to a "real person." You have to have a PIN number before you can actually talk to someone.

They also don't alert you before they do an update. An update can change customized settings or cause them to stop working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

They've added many features in the past year or so that help make things much more simple to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very user friendly, we can add members of our team with different restrictions, and it is effortless to copy products across our stores. The platform is pretty straight forward and easy to use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Sometimes the answer to a question cannot be found in support/big commerce university and the responses from customer service haven't been very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BigCommerce:

This is a platform very easy for even first time users who want to start up a store, with no experience with HTML or website design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being able to move things across our stores saves so much time rather than creating the same product on a new site, for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
