What do you like best about Volusion?

Volusion is an e-commerce platform we currently use in our company to market ourselves even though it has limited characteristics. For now, customer service is working very well, it is actually the best thing that volusion has for small companies or that they are starting is perfect since It is not complex but if you are a large company I do not recommend it since you will need more features that until now volusion we do not provide them since it has many predetermined templates which guarantees the final product is professional and also guarantees that someone without design knowledge has a good finish Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Volusion?

It is easy to add product to the store, as well as process orders. It works well with our merchant services account and have had no hiccups in over five years since I started managing the store. When I have had to contact customer service or a technician they have always been friendly and resolved all issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

Unless I am missing it, I wish there was a way to archive a product and not have it show up in the list of products. I do not want to delete it because data is tied to it, but it sure would shorten the list of products that I manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Do your research, but I have found Volusion easy to use and the people great to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Volusion?

This e-commerce website software always allow us unlimited templates which really help us in our stores to sell online. We can easily collect our payments from customers according to the sales products. By creating the e-commerce websites stores, so it offers retail sales online with instant payments through our credit cards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

The main drawback that I really not liked about it is that the e-commerce websites templates are so limited and expensive, so we can’t afford these templates due to its cost and as a result we cannot easily customise our sales products. Sometimes, we cannot use our credit cards due to shortage of modern shipping cards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Volusion software is that the payment processing is so fast and exact as you sales your product. So, it provide the fully profitable e-commerce websites software.

What do you like best about Volusion?

Volusion technical support is awesome. No matter what the problem is they will help you solve it no matter how long it takes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

I don't like the fact that they took away phone support from all packages except the most expensive plan at $299 a month. Most small business like mine can not afford that plan so we are stuck with message support. Which mean being at you computer until they answer you or you will get a message with a way to fix your issue that might not be exactly what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Volusion:

There sites have lots of free design templates and they are all customizable. If you have a issue with anything getting in touch with there technical support is fairly easy. Only issue is unless you have there most expensive plan all technical support is done via messages through there site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Volusion?

I like that you can search by order number. A lot of times we have customers call in about a return or a replacement product and it can be difficult to search by name. When you search by order number it brings up the correct for immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

Sometimes the platform can be a little glitchy. The page doesn't always respond to a click or will sometimes just randomly log out during the middle of taking a phone order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Volusion:

It's easy to get frustrated with the little glitches of Volusion, but if you are patient then it is a pretty decent software. You can edit products and website design pretty fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Volusion solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use volusion for our retail sales. Anyone who places an order through our website goes through Volusion as well as anyone who calls in to place an order. The sales people in our office then go through the back-end to place the order. It is beneficial to pull a final report at the end of the day showing which products have sold and what the total is. This allows us to adjust inventory correctly each day as well as sales reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Volusion?

I'd love to say that I like everything about this company. However, that is not the case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

Their customer service for enterprise level companies is horrible. They recently changed payment plans and offered UNLIMITED bandwidth - I was never notified of this option. If you use V1, you will have tons of issues with site performance and speed. They do not leverage browser cache expiry dates so your website will continue to score poorly with Google PageSpeed. You will not have total access to your site/domain. You will not be able to create custom URLs using Volusion. There are so many other issues that I don't have the time to list them all. If this is a choice for your company, I would keep looking or at least create a demo store to see if the limitations are something your company can live with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Volusion:

Complete a demo before signing any contract! Open a trial store and play with it before making a decision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Volusion solving and how is that benefiting you?

None at this point. Volusion is simply providing an ecommerce platform for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Volusion?

This is a great tool if you are looking to start selling goods online, but don't have a lot of technical knowledge, as far as building a website or managing html code goes. Using this, you're able to choose from a few different pre-made websites themes, ultimately giving you control over how you want your online shop to look. Then, you just plug in your own products and information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Volusion?

For me, it was a little overpriced, and I was using the cheapest version for personal use, which currently costs $29.99 at a monthly rate. If you are someone who has a successful business or business idea, that could be a small price to pay for a clean and well organized shopping experience for your customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Volusion:

Give it a try! They offer a free 14 day trial, which would give you plenty of time to test out their services and see if it's a good fit for you and your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Volusion solving and how is that benefiting you?

This platform removes the middle man shopping sites that vendors often use - like eBay, or Etsy. If you are looking to step up your business and have your own web address to sell your products at, this is a great option that I would encourage everyone to at least try!
