BigCommerce implementations are no small feat. There are many pieces to the puzzle that need to fit together for a successful implementation. There is a general process flow for implementations that gives the project structure to ensure successful completion.
The first part of a successful implementation is analyzing the current state of your ecommerce store. Here at Anchor Group, we’ve worked with clients in various sectors of eCommerce, including automotive, food, construction, manufacturing, sporting goods retail and more! These experiences have given us valuable insights into different markets and consumer behaviors. We bring this experience into our conversations as we discuss your ecommerce situation.
This is where we start putting the plan into action! Anchor Group has a US-based team of BigCommerce website designers that specialize in designing websites on the platform. (BigCommerce Stencil or BigCommerce Headless) In this stage, BigCommerce storefront design tasks can range from minor theme customizations, to developing unique custom themes specific to your business.
While the previous stage focused on the overall appearance and more general user experience of your website, this stage focuses on adding specific features to your website. This can be achieved through a combination of tasks, such as plugging in BigCommerce Apps, BigCommerce Integrations to your favorite 3rd-party software, or even developing brand-new customizations.
We are a NetSuite partner and skilled in NetSuite integrations. NetSuite is a powerful ERP system and becomes even more useful when used in tandem with a BigCommerce store. Here at Anchor Group, we understand the NetSuite BigCommerce integrations. The success of a NetSuite to BigCommerce integration is crucial for the success of merchants that use NetSuite and BigCommerce. Integrating BigCommerce and NetSuite allows data to flow smoothly between both platforms.

You have two options for software to use as you implement BigCommerce: BigCommerce Stencil and BigCommerce Headless. These two terms, stencil and headless, have become more popular over the past few years. These might seem hard to understand at first, so below is an explanation of both!
BigCommerce automatically comes with a native page-builder tool, Stencil, included in your BigCommerce subscription fee. BigCommerce Stencil has drag and drop widgets and other page builder tools. Stencil by BigCommerce uses great technology, makes SEO simple, and upholds ecommerce design standards. There is also room to extend Stencil’s capabilities within reason. Overall, BigCommerce Stencil is a great tool to use if you’re looking for a solid, manageable, efficient experience building and managing your website.
BigCommerce Headless gives developers the ability to get very creative with their BigCommerce site design. In the headless approach, the back-end of your website runs independently from the front-end of the website “head”. A connection is set up between the two via APIs. This means, the back end of the website could be run by BigCommerce, while the front end of the website could be run by your favorite software like MakeSwift and Catalyst. When using a headless storefront, BigCommerce site developers can cater to the UX (user experience) in unique ways to fit merchant needs. Additionally, headless websites often runs much faster than other websites which helps for SEO and customer experience.
Anchor Group is BigCommerce BIGDEV Certified which means our BigCommerce developers have completed hours of BigCommerce training to ensure they know the ins and outs of the BigCommerce software. Whenever you're working with Anchor Group, you can rest assured an experienced BigCommerce developer will be working on your project. An advantage of choosing BigCommerce as your eCommerce platform is the fact that BigCommerce is open Saas. This enables developers to have more freedom to create the website their clients are looking for.
