BigCommerce vs WooCommerce.
Save more time, money, and peace of mind with BigCommerce.
Former WooCommerce users saving more with BigCommerce include:
Ecommerce freedom isn’t free.
Free sounds good, until you consider costs of plug-ins, slower site speeds, time and maintenance requirements, and security risks. Get more native features, freedom, with no ceiling or proprietary friction you’ll find with other ecommerce platforms.
Build with a full platform — not just plug-ins.

WooCommerce relies on third-party plug-ins to build and manage essential features — which can lead to compatibility issues, security risks, and a fragmented experience.
