We've been able to learn and adapt new strategies as their team continues to open new capabilities to developers and as they push development in their app market. Fast and reliable apps will be key to building and maintaining the next evolution of ecommerce businesses and having that infrastructure in place will be pivotal in the years to come. > > **Cons**: When we teamed up with BigCommerce, they were a newer competitor in the market. Some similar companies were able to offer functionalities that were limiting to our initial growth through ecommerce. Being a brick and mortar based business since 1978, we had a multitude of functionalities needed to keep up with our physical locations. Although they couldn't offer these features out of the gate, they were quick to get them implemented and worked closely with us to resolve our issues. > > BigCommerce has been absolutely phenomenal. We're glad to be based in Austin, Texas alongside some of the BigCommerce team. Their support staff has been instrumental in our ability to adjust when a problem arises, and find a long term solution to ensure our ongoing success. ----- ### "Bigcommerce review" — 4.0/5 > **Faizan** | *30 June 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: - It's not open source and does not allow any type of changes at admin side. - Easy to use. - It is secure. > > **Cons**: - The documentation for building an bigcommerce app is not good and does not have clear content. - it's coslty. - customer support is not good. > > Overall, it's very good and can compete other platforms ----- ### "I prefer BigCommerce for its simplicity and ease of use" — 4.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *14 February 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: In every way, BigCommerce is the ideal platform for my company.
