What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

WebDav is not working for us. I have to clear my whole cache each time I want to use it ;-( Also, the API's require more tech skills then I have, so I have to use outside resources to accomplish this.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

I like everything about the BigCommerce platform. I've spent 10 times more money on other tailored sites and I would never do that again after using the BigCommerce options.

I've often commented to people it's like a platform designed by a business user/owner and not a computer geek!!. No offence anyone.

Very good all round service from the BigCommerce team.

Highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

No dislikes, if anything I'd like a free phone number to call in emergencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is great. We were getting good results on Google even without actually implementing all the SEO features that are offered within BigCommerce.

The platform is easy to implement and maintain, and pretty simple to teach to other users.

Standard templates are not too bad, although you would benefit greatly from hiring a developer or at least going for a paid (responsive) theme. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Probably my biggest gripe is that you are not able to do subscription products (i.e. a monthly paid magazine etc) very easily without paying quite a lot extra for a third-party application such as Recurly.

Product filtering is either development work, a paid app, or the top-level package. This should, in my opinion, be standard across all packages.

The product options, although quite powerful, is quite complicated and fiddly unfortunately.

It would be nice to be able to 'bundle' products, which is not currently an available feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Fast and smooth transition from bricks-and-mortar to online for us as a non-profit enterprise. Very quickly expanding our market reach through this channel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
