BigCommerce Partners with Leading Asia Pacific Commerce Agency Exceed

As merchant demand for SaaS platforms increases, Asia Pacific’s first Magento Gold Partner announces a commitment to BigCommerce

SYDNEY — JULY 14, 2015 — BigCommerce, the ecommerce platform of choice for fast-growing brands, today announced that full-service digital commerce agency Exceed has signed on as the company’s newest partner to service and consult with the growing collective of enterprise retailers demanding SaaS ecommerce solutions. BigCommerce partners collectively represent hundreds of the world’s fastest-growing online retailers, and work closely with clients to help them scale their online businesses by leveraging the BigCommerce Enterprise platform.

According to Forrester, the market for SaaS technology offerings is projected to exceed $130 billion by 2020. In today’s customer-focused market, companies that offer flexible, hosted, and cost-effective tools will best serve and retain the world’s leading companies.

“BigCommerce is focused on expanding our ecosystem in leading markets such as Australia, to provide the highest levels of support to meet the growing demands of the region’s most successful enterprise retailers,” said Russell Griffin, senior director, design & solutions partner program at BigCommerce. “As more retailers realise the benefits SaaS can bring their business, including easier maintenance and lower cost of ownership, we expect to see a major shift in the way they approach ecommerce technology.”

Exceed brings extensive experience in helping clients build unified, true omni-channel customer experiences in the Asia Pacific market, and is already migrating existing clients to BigCommerce.

"Our clients are looking for more nimble and cost-effective ecommerce platforms, and working with BigCommerce allows us to bring the most modern commerce technology in an easy and quick to deploy platform,” said Kyle Aspinall, managing director at Exceed. “In today’s fast moving retail market, retailers don’t have the time or want to spend the money it takes to create on-premise solutions that slow them down. BigCommerce simplifies the process, and will bring our clients new opportunities in commerce.”

As part of the BigCommerce Partner Program, Exceed Ecommerce will work closely with BigCommerce’s partner and engineering teams to create customised ecommerce solutions for fast-growing retailers and established online brands. Specific services provided by BigCommerce partners include implementation, design, development, website and conversion optimisation, digital marketing, systems integration and web hosting initiatives.
