Pros and cons

We have been using the UpShot Commerce platform since the late 1990's and are thrilled with their robust offering.
Upshot Commerce gives us great care year after year. We are seeing some great improvement since launching the responsive design.
The Upshot team provided an unprecedented level of support in the upgrade process, and we are thrilled with the results. Their customer service and response time is outstanding.
It cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost business, lost customers, and time and money spent trying to get things to work.
Not only did it take almost 7 months to go live because of mistakes and inconsistencies within the platform, once we went live, the comedy of errors was unbelievable.
Made one of the worst business decisions of my career signing up with this e-commerce platform.

The Best E-Commerce Platform Out There...

Reviewed 8 years ago

We have been with Upshot Commerce for coming on 10 years. They have been an outstanding technology partner for us. Their feature rich and highly adaptable system has allowed us to stay on the cutting edge of e-commerce technology in a fast changing business landscape. We migrated to their new platform over the past 12 months and could not be happier with the results. The Upshot team provided an unprecedented level of support in the upgrade process, and we are thrilled with the results. Their customer service and response time is outstanding. Thank you Upshot Commerce!

Best Value/Most feature rich ecommerce platform on the market today.

Reviewed 8 years ago

I've built well over 4 different businesses on Upshot and had wonderful results. Overall the system is very customizable, allowing us to accomplish all of our business goals. The shear number of features is both a pro and a con. On the pro side, there is almost nothing that you need to add to get a deep commerce experience. A single feature that is included can cost $1000s on other platforms. There...

Useful if trained properly

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Mi9 is really similar to other retail POS programs but incorporates different needs for different uses and I find it really helpful if trained properly.

Cons

If you were to throw someone into the program with only the training manual provided a lot of the benefits of the program will be missed. I would make sure to play with it to ensure full use of the program.

The reporting function is amazing! It is easy to create standing reports, manipulate the data, and produces them at a quick rate.

Cons

I have no cons with MI9! I have struggled with so many retail softwares and this one is by far the best.

Upshot Commerce is an excellent solution

Reviewed 8 years ago

Many years ago I was looking for a flexible data base driven web solution. Upshot had the solution I was looking for. We needed a database driven product so that changes could be made daily without going to individual items. We have over 4000 items on our site and to change quantities or descriptions individually would be a big problem. We can make changes throughout the day to our in-house computer...

I could tell you about the reliability if the software, I could tell you about the security, the features, the speed, I could tell you that I think Upshot has all of this and is amazing and that would be true. The software is amazing. I think when you think about an e-commerce platform you need to think about a partner in propelling your business forward. Far to often software is a stumbling block...

Upshot Commerce - Always having a "can do" attitude

Reviewed 8 years ago

Working closely with Upshot for the past couple of years, they've always been helpful and are always there to answer my many questions and concerns. Whenever there is a new feature that we want offered, Upshot always has a 'can do' attitude and is always determined to make it work. During our large promotions, Upshot supports us by making sure everything runs smoothly and if there is an issue, there is always someone to help us out. We've always considered Upshot as being a part of our team.

Upshot Commerce Has Been Transformative - Over 10 Years

Reviewed 8 years ago

We've worked with Upshot Commerce for 10+ years and transitioned to their current platform in November 2013 and have been thrilled with the result. The design and implementation was challenging and a lot of work on our part but the new system has been transformative. Our sales for January (our busiest month of the year) were are up over 30% from last year. Again, not all due to US but the new system is certainly a factor. And more importantly, we handled the growth with almost no new staff.

Perfect platform for e-commerce

Reviewed 8 years ago

After making a lot of research to find a simple solution for my ecommerce I came across Upshot and I am using this platform for the past 3 years. We have 140,000 different items and 250,000 pictures associated with those. The system is very solid and the back end for the transaction is simple and easy to use. I do not regret my choice at all. I am actually developing a new platform and I will use them again. The service is always there when we need to customize the pages etc. Good job!

For this developer, Upshot is where it's at.

Reviewed 8 years ago

Ergobaby started with Upshot many many years ago when Upshot was known as Make-A-Store. That company, under any name, has been beyond stellar and helpful for the Ergobaby (and Orbit Baby) online presence and revenue growth in these past years. Whether doing complete development work for us or assisting with inane little tasks, Upshot's crew have always been there for us. The Upshot admin interface is a breeze to use, and offers lots of options for building extended functionality.

Excellent platform with highly responsive service

Reviewed 8 years ago

While we were reluctant and fearful to switch from Magento to Upshot, we made the move and it was a smart one. They migrated our entire website over to their platform within 6 weeks. We had a few highly customizable elements to our site as well and they were able to execute. Their entire team are problem solvers and good communicators, which made it easy to keep evolving. I would definitely recommend Upshot Commerce.

Upshot has been a great company to work with since our company started 5 years ago. They've customized the system to meet our needs as we've continued to grow over the years. The best part of Upshot is their Customer Service. They respond to you the same day, and can quickly implement customized changes to your system.
