Pros
Volusion is a great solution for those who want to sell online and use something else other than Shopify. It offers a lot of great functionality and has an easy to use interface.
Lots of great features come as standard and aren’t an optional paid extra like other solutions. Has a lot of great integrations.
I like the content management aspect & ease of use. I have been involved in all aspects of setting it up & using the software & I have been well pleased.
Cons
I have been receiving communications from them 3-4 time each day since I started my trial period. It is very annoying, disrupted, and time consuming.
BY far the worst customer service experience I've ever had with any similar service. We have been working on re-platforming for 6 months so that we can leave them and never look back.
API is an absolute disaster. You can't find an agency to work with the API because it's proprietary, so you're limited to who is already partnered with Volusion.

Volusion has given us a great web site

Reviewed 5 years ago

We have been using Volusion since 2011. It has never failed us. Never has a customer or a potential customer called with a complaint about any aspect of our web site. We have hundreds of products, and thousands of customers. It is so easy to create new products, new pages, new categories, and arrange them as I wish. Volusion ia also handling our PPC accounts, creating and maintaining ads, with weekly reports. Overall, I would recommend Volusion to anyone looking to create a digital storefront.

Pros

The stability. There's never been an issue with connectivity.

Cons

There are not very many options for offering my customers discounts. Coupon codes are very restricted.

Great ecommerce platform

Reviewed a year ago

I've had a great experience with a software I continue to use it to this day

Pros

This is a very easy to use platform that I was able to learn quickly and has helped me immensely

Cons

If you're using multiple items especially in the hundreds plus I would definitely recommend the import export function

Easy to use, but leaves more to be desired.

Reviewed 2 months ago

Volusion is great with inventory management, the platform makes it easy to see where issues in sales and products lie.

Pros

Volusion is a very user friendly platform. Our team used it for several years and every member of our team was able to log on, make necessary edits and updates regardless of "tech knowledge".

Cons

The support we received was less than stellar. Unfortunately we ran into some template issues and experienced limitations in our shop. There are some developments + enhancements that should be addressed so businesses in the future are able to have additional resources.

Good but aging

Reviewed a year ago

We've used Volusion for over 10 years now. Overall, it is a solid platform which is reliable and easy to use on a day to day basis. Basic set up and basic changes are fairly straightforward, but more advanced features are harder to use. As newer platforms such as Shopify and BigCommerce have become more popular in recent years, Volusion has not kept up with them in terms of features offered or ease of use.

Pros

Using Volusion to manage a website and ecommerce is fairly straightforward and easy once it is set up. Managing orders is a simple process.

Cons

The platform is starting to show its age. There are often things that we see other websites doing that we want to do but are unable because Volusion does not support those features. Trying to do more advanced things often involves going into the html and making changes manually (but they do give you step by step instructions for doing so).
