Dokan vs. EvolutionX

Dokan is a multi-vendor marketplace. It is usually good for small mom-and-pop shops with less than 1000 items.

EvolutionX is great at getting a large catalog online in a hurry. Though the editing may take some time, the pull is a great feature to get you started. EvolutionX will give you the most professional looking site right out of the gate vs the competitors we have viewed. The person assigned to your account is a nice benefit and are very helpful and efficient this is an even bigger plus for those with no coding experience. EvolutionX may not be the best option for a small business, though the website may make you look like the big dogs it doesn't function as well yet. The cost of the service is high compared to what the customer gets from it after the initial set up and is the main reason why this isnt the best solution for a small business. It would be nice to see the price to be able to scale down or up in price with how well the site is doing after a set amount of time.

• On the backend, it would be nice to be able to COPY a similar sku to edit and make its own - creating items takes too long
• The option for drop downs for different colors / sizes / etc. could be nice
• The ability to export pricing where you can see the cost too would be nice

I don’t see us making a switch anytime soon, but are always open to new opportunities should they arise.

EvoX is a very user friendly platform, both for admin and customers. On the admin side, there are lots of KBs and videos to watch to learn more on the site and features of it. On the customer side, the features provided make it very easy for our customers. Quicklists are a feature we push to customers to make their ordering experience as easy as possible. B2B has a priority to make ordering as easy as possible, our customers are busy and need to place their orders quickly. If the customer cannot do that with your company, they will find one that does do that for them

The support needs to be improved as some of the support representatives do not seem to understand the client's request and keep sending canned responses.

ECI has always provided good support for us on EvoX. Weather it is via monthly conversations to the intercom system, EvoX is quick to respond and look into the issue. Our sales reps are also a huge support for us to contact on any major issues that may come up

Hard to remember specifics, but I think it was executed at a level where we were satisfied.

This project took some time for us to complete. Some of it was on our end with data cleanup, but overall I thought it went well.

We actually also have a BigCommerce account for a another division of our company. Both are great platforms with more capabilities than you can imagine. I appreciate / become frustrated with things from both platforms & truthfully would say they are pretty equal. - 8.5/10 overall

10/10 is a hard rating for me to give, but I have been impressed with the scalability
