Easy to use, robust and fast checkout capabilities, and offers a wholesale interface for B2B customers
There is very little that needs to be improved, as BigCommerce is very proactive and is continuously releasing new updates. They are very effective at modernizing their product, but since no product is perfect and can always improve, a few things that I think BigCommerce could do better is to create a better reporting module for merchants. There are apps available that help with this in their app store, but it would be nice to have this built-in for things such as running reports for sales tax reporting. The theme editor that was recently added is wonderful, but it not totally intuitive.

Reduced the customer care team's time, got us new customers, and required no third-party integrations
Their support should have more in-depth knowledge about different ERP solutions that they connect to. There could also be more support about everything that is related to website management, which is not strictly related to the B2B tool. These are the things like knowing about GDPR regulations, knowing about digital consents, and in general, all the laws that go with having a website. Sometimes, we would have liked more support in that area. There could also be more features coming out on the platform, but I know they are already working on that. I know they're changing the way they manage that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"BigCommerce has increased sales for almost every merchant that has moved from another eCommerce platform."
"BigCommerce has an excellent B2B interface, which gives merchants the ability to sell with different price books and the ability to segment clients."
"I found it surprisingly easy from both the admin side and the customer side. The admin side has a limited set of features, but they are very well explained. They are very simple to understand. It is very easy to find out what every feature does. It is not really complicated. Sana provides an online university where you can learn everything that you need about it. When we needed to check a new feature or validate how something works, we found solid online information on their website. If there was anything that we couldn't find, or if we really couldn't understand how exactly something was working, their support was always very quick. So, it is quite easy."
"Using Sana Commerce has helped to increase customer engagement online."
"The most valuable feature is the direct ERP integration, as it allows us to provide product availability and specific pricing in real-time. Customers can also order themselves in real-time."
"Eventually, when we got it up and running, the solution helped to streamline our processes for bridging our ERP and eCommerce systems."
"We use Sana Commerce with Microsoft Dynamics on the back end and the native ERP integration works well. The fact that no third-party integrations are needed between our Sana Commerce web store and Microsoft Dynamics is important. It's one less thing to worry about when it comes to troubleshooting."
"This product is highly customizable. We use the standard system but we have extended it quite a bit."
"For us, it is a critical thing to know that all the information is managed within ERP, there is no third-party solution, there are no interfaces, and this is, in our opinion, a critical reason for the existing success."
"The main reason they chose Sana was because of the ERP connection in real-time, which gives us the ability to display product availability and specific prices for each customer, per article, in real-time."
 

Cons

"The theme editor that was recently added is wonderful, but it is not totally intuitive."
"The theme editor that was recently added is wonderful, but it not totally intuitive."
"I'd rate their customer service a nine out of 10. I think they're in demand and a little overloaded on work. Sometimes it takes a little bit of time for them to get to our work."
"The performance can be improved. Sometimes, the system is really slow because of the ERP integration."
"Their support should have more in-depth knowledge about different ERP solutions that they connect to."
"The performance can be improved. Sometimes, the system is really slow because of the ERP integration. I'm not sure whether this is a problem with Sana Commerce or the ERP system but overall, it could be faster. When it comes to usability, if it takes too much time to load, then it's not the best."
"One problem that we encounter is that it's difficult to upgrade as a result of making a large number of customer-specific adaptations."
"There could also be more support about everything that is related to website management, which is not strictly related to the B2B tool. These are the things like knowing about GDPR regulations, knowing about digital consents, and in general, all the laws that go with having a website. Sometimes, we would have liked more support in that area."
"If you want to introduce any new features or functionality, it's at least a three to four-month process, possibly more, because of the way their structure works."
"I think they're in demand and a little overloaded on work. Sometimes it takes a little bit of time for them to get to our work."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"When we got version 9.2, it was a good price. Everything is moving to the subscription-based cloud model, and that's probably a little high when you look at the lifetime cost."
"Sana's pricing is fair. It could be more competitive. It's not so much the licensing cost, it's the additional development."
"Support costs are in addition to the standard licensing fees, and they vary per month, based on how much we use them. It is not very expensive."
"They have a policy of a price per legal entity. So, if you are a company that operates in one country, that is, if you're just an American company, or you're just a Spanish company or just a British company, then that probably makes sense. We are a global company, and we have operations in 20 to 30 different countries. So, we are interested in implementing Sana in potentially 20 to 30 countries. Right now, the pricing model of Sana has a limitation. They are almost asking for the same price for the new country when in many cases, a new country will just be a new small rollout. That's because it is the same solution that gets implemented everywhere. So, to me, it is not the same price if you are maintaining 10 Sanas that are looking exactly the same and are working exactly the same in 10 different countries. To me, these should not cost 10 times more than one. They don't yet have a good grasp of how to manage global companies like ours. That is something we are talking to them about, and we are in discussions with them about. So, hopefully, they will learn."
