BigCommerce Free Trial: The Ultimate Guide for 2024

Articles BigCommerce Ecommerce

BigCommerce offers companies a lot of the same benefits as Shopify, including excellent inventory management tools, flexible selling options, and exceptional scalability. Plus, BigCommerce gives business leaders a 15 day free trial they can use to test out all of the features of its incredible “Plus” package. That’s a lot longer than Shopify’s 3-day free trial.

The question is, how do you access that free trial, what can you do with it, and is there any way to extend the trial length (like you can with Shopify)?

Here’s everything you need to know if you’re thinking of launching an ecommerce store with BigCommerce, or migrating from another platform.

Shopify Advanced vs Plus: how significant is the difference between Shopify’s top-end standard plan, and its enterprise-grade solution? There’s definitely a major leap in terms of pricing, from around $399 per month (or $299 per month if you pay annually) for Advanced Shopify to prices starting from $2,300 each month for Shopify Plus.

After experimenting with the features of both plans, I can say that Shopify Plus is definitely worth the extra cost – for certain types of companies.

If you’re just looking for a scalable, flexible omnichannel solution to support a small to mid-sized business, there’s no need to go beyond the Advanced plan.

As a consumer, I love Etsy. It’s a great place to find unique items and gifts you simply can’t get anywhere else. As a business owner, I know how tough learning how to sell on Etsy can actually be.

Shopify vs Volusion 2024: My Full Comparison

My Bottom Line Upfront

Dabbling with a business idea you are not sure is worth investing substantial time and money on, Volusion or Shopify? I’d go with Shopify.

Running a large business with multiple divisions and/or serving markets in several countries? Shopify is ideal in this context too.

Volusion only starts to emerge somewhat as a viable option when your business lies somewhere in the middle of these two extremes.

Even then, Volusion mostly falls short of Shopify’s affordability, scalability, expansive capabilities, greater flexibility and more granular features. Volusion is especially weighed down by limits on the number of products and on gross merchant value (GMV) imposed on each plan.

I explain these and the other reasons for choosing Shopify further down but here’s a brief snapshot of the main things I liked or didn’t like about either platform.

How much does Printify cost in 2024? If you’ve been thinking of launching a print on demand store with one of the world’s top POD platforms, you’ve probably asked this question.

At a glance, Printify pricing might seem pretty simple to understand. You don’t actually have to pay anything to use the platform – but that doesn’t necessarily mean running a store with Printify is totally free.

As I remind any vendor I work with, there are other costs to think about too.

For instance, you need to account for production fees, shipping costs, the subscription price for your ecommerce platform, and even whether you want to pay for $29 per month for Printify Premium.
