"Robust E-commerce Platform with Room for Improvement"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

I appreciate how BigCommerce keeps our busy online store running smoothly with product listings,pricing rules and order processing all in one place.It turns what used to be daily firefighting into something predictable and manageable.I really like how stable it is under pressure,sales, product additions and pricing changes don't cause chaos and checkout remains reliable.That consistency is more important to us than having fancy features.The initial setup was easier than expected and once everything was validated,the platform settled into a stable rhythm. I’d recommend BigCommerce to teams serious about ecommerce and anticipating growth because it consistently removes daily stress and scales calmly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Some areas still feel stuck in the past. Simple layout edits often turn into developer tasks and too many basic needs are pushed into paid apps. Managing performance for a large catalog also takes manual effort,which feels avoidable for a platform at this level.Performance depends a lot on manual tuning. We’ve had to optimize images,watch indexing and adjust caching ourselves to keep pages fast.I’d like BigCommerce to handle more of that automatically,so speed doesn’t rely on constant monitoring as products scale.

"Reliable Platform with Room for Improvement"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

I like how steady BigCommerce feels once live.We’ve pushed pricing changes,added products fast and run promotions without checkout acting weird.It doesn’t demand constant fixing,which builds trust when sales volume is high and mistakes get expensive.We use it to keep our e-commerce operations from turning chaotic as volume grows.It manages complex product rules and keeps orders flowing smoothly,so we’re not constantly fixing issues behind the scenes.It solved the constant cleanup work we had before,as orders used to need double checks,inventory drifted and small changes caused side effects. With BigCommerce,those background issues dropped off, so day to day selling feels controlled instead of reactive.Setup was smoother than I expected and the store went live quickly.Once set,it stopped demanding daily fixes.It feels reliable enough to bet real revenue on,especially for teams who’ve outgrown basic platforms and want fewer operational headaches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Some everyday tasks still feel heavier than needed. Simple design tweaks can turn into developer work and relying on paid apps for fairly basic features adds up over time.Large catalogs also need manual performance tuning,which feels unnecessary for a platform built to scale.

"Comprehensive E-commerce with Multilingual Support"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

I like BigCommerce because it's easy to use, which allows us to do a lot of things right within the webpage. We use it for both our English and French sites, and everything is in one place. It's convenient that we can manage products and communications between SAP, Google Drive, and more, all at once. The analytics feature is great, and once you learn how to use the web builder, it's quite effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

I think the page builder and the options could be better. The web builder is okay, but it could be easier to use and more friendly. The initial setup felt lengthy, but it's more about taking the time to understand the software than an issue with BigCommerce itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless and User-Friendly Commerce Platform"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

I really like how easy it is to add products right down the line with BigCommerce. Being able to add products so quickly is a plus as our prior platform was not so easy. I think in general it's a very easy-to-use platform that isn't overwhelming with features unless you want to dive deep. Its front end is very clean and simple to understand with capabilities to do much more! The initial setup was all pretty smooth, and it's just so easy to use that I'd rate it a 10 out of 10.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

We occasionally will see some glitches on our site where changes are not immediately visible (backed up in que) but, other than that things run well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless App Integration on an Intuitive Platform"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

This platform is very user-friendly and offers access to thousands of apps that you can easily download and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

We find ourselves needing a BigCommerce developer more often than I think should be necessary. Some apps require custom integration, especially if your website has any custom development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Faster and Flexible BM app than any other Business manager out there."
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Bigcommerce has started a partner educational program which allows the users of the app to understand the flow of the BM which is a great thing to do. They also provide certificates for the course. You can implement Bigcommerce smoothly and replace the existing old BM. If site is having products and orders are being placed then this app is best for daily use. The Customer support is also good. They provide a solution instantly if you face any problem. The BM is easy to use on a daily basis. The Layout of the BM is easily understandable. If you are not IT professional then you can also use the BM easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

New issue that we faced in the project that when we integrated the third-party app "PIMBERLY - which is a product information management tool", there were some restrictions that caused an issue with updating the metafields of the products of the site This is why we needed to update the code and add a new metafield to get our work done.

If you find any issue with their BM, then they will release the required changes once in six months with all other changes. which is quite annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid Foundation, But Improvements Needed"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

The best part about using BigCommerce has been their support team. They’ve consistently gone above and beyond, always quick to respond and incredibly helpful when it comes to navigating the platform. Whether it’s resolving technical issues or guiding me through features, their support has made the entire experience so much smoother. Honestly, it’s been the biggest upside of choosing BigCommerce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

One of the main downsides of BigCommerce is the limited customization options. To make meaningful changes, it often feels like you need a developer’s help, which can be frustrating if you’re looking for flexibility. On top of that, many of the available apps aren’t very integration-friendly, making it harder to streamline everything into one smooth workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Store Setup with Powerful Features"

I like how BigCommerce makes setting up and managing an online store simple, fast, and flexible. It gives you powerful built-in features, smooth integrations, and solid performance without needing heavy tech skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

I dislike that BigCommerce can feel limiting with its design customization and that some advanced features require extra apps or higher-tier plans, which can make it more expensive as you scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Ecommerce Platform"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

Easy to use, import and export product data into the backend. You can track the order status, send invoice via email. There is no need to have several plugins or tools to do everything. Inbuild store also provides marketing applications to send promotional emails. No clunky feeling, clean dashboard, showing sales revenue, set up custom functions for the products as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

Nothing as of now. The New version updates may be sometimes time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, Smooth and Easy to integrate - Business Manager App"
What do you like best about BigCommerce?

The app was easy to integrate and replace the existing BM. The UI of the app is user friendly. The BM is used daily for orders, updation of product details. It has an extra feature of App Marketplace in which we can easily integrate third party services through bigcommerce. It offers a lot of customisation options. Either we can use the storefront of bigcommerce or we can easily integrate other storefront too as we used in our project. Customer Support is very good solves all the issue raised related to app. Like we were facing issues related to checkout that if the user comes from checkout to storefront the user is logged out on the storefront as we are using storefront of next.js/vercel . Customer support helped us a lot in resolving this issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BigCommerce?

1. Any issue raised related to app is released after a long time.

2. Products - UI lacks/Hangs when any product is opened. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
