Brevo is one of the best all-in-one marketing platforms for ecommerce, combining email, SMS, automation, and transactional messaging under one roof.

Whether you're running a small store or scaling fast, Brevo offers affordable tools to help you increase sales and retain customers — without the steep learning curve or bloated pricing of other platforms.

We’ve used Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) to send the Ecommerce-Platforms.com newsletter for the last 10 years, and it continues to be our go-to choice for ecommerce email marketing. It’s reliable, affordable, and flexible — everything you want when you’re running a store or managing a growing list.

We also recommend Brevo to our ecommerce clients who need multichannel tools (email, SMS, automation, CRM) without the high costs or steep learning curve of other platforms.

In this review, I’ll walk you through Brevo’s pricing, automation tools, ecommerce features, and where it shines (and falls short), so you can see whether it’s a fit for your store.

Alokai Review: My Verdict for 2025

Articles Ecommerce Reviews

If you’re serious about growing your ecommerce store and want full control over your frontend, Alokai might be exactly what you’re looking for.

I’ve worked with plenty of frontend platforms — traditional and headless — and Alokai stands out for speed, flexibility, and performance. But it’s not for everyone.

Quick answer?
Alokai is perfect for mid to enterprise-level ecommerce brands who are scaling fast, want lightning site speed, and need more freedom than Shopify or BigCommerce themes can offer.

But if you’re a solo founder or running a small store without dev help, Alokai might not be your best bet.

Quick answer: Shopify shipping rates are calculated based on your store’s location, product weight, package dimensions, and the shipping method you choose—whether that’s Shopify Shipping (with carrier rates like USPS, UPS), flat rates, or third-party integrations.

If you mess this up, it’ll kill your margins and spike cart abandonment.

After 15+ years running ecommerce stores, I can say this with confidence: If you don’t control your shipping rates, they’ll control your business.

After testing both platforms hands-on across real store setups, the quick answer is this:

BigCommerce is better for established businesses that need built-in features and multichannel scalability.

Ecwid is better for beginners who want to start fast, add ecommerce to an existing site, or keep things simple.

Both are solid in their own ways—but they serve different types of users. Below, I’ll unpack everything from pricing to support, based on direct experience using each platform.
