For a small or medium-sized e-commerce business, having the right technology platform is crucial. So, if you want to adopt or transition to a new e-commerce platform, you need to be sure about your choice.
BigCommerce and WooCommerce are two popular platforms making the rounds. Both help hundreds of thousands of e-commerce companies build and manage their online store effectively. Which one should you go with? Here’s a little table with the pros of both.
BigCommerce offers
- Fully-hosted e-commerce website builder

- Analytical tracking and reporting tool to monitor your website
- An omnichannel experience by integrating your website with large marketplaces like Amazon, Facebook, and others

WooCommerce offers

- Unlimited customization so that your website and store-front have their branding aligned

While BigCommerce and WooCommerce have their advantages, the one you choose depends on your needs. From our experience, we find that BigCommerce is ideal for a fast-growing medium-sized business. Its large set of tools enables users to manage their storefront with ease and scale quickly. But if you are a company with a website, want to add a store-front, or are just finding your feet in the e-commerce business, WooCommerce as a WordPress plug-in is ideal for you. It lets you launch quickly and set your own pace.
