At BigCommerce, we understand the importance of merchants being able to preview changes to a store before pushing those changes to production. Nobody wants users having a confusing, subpar experience because they encountered some non-production-ready content!

How can we help make sure that never happens? BigCommerce now features staging by StagingPro!

StagingPro is a comprehensive enterprise integration for staging. Seamlessly integrate staging environments with existing workflows and tools, all from within your BigCommerce control panel.

“We are thrilled to partner with BigCommerce to transform the way merchants and agencies design, develop and deploy BigCommerce stores. StagingPro is built to eliminate the day-to-day challenges retailers and agencies face in this fast-evolving technology space.

Susant Patro, CEO of StagingPro

Now, instead of using a secondary store for staging and testing purposes, BigCommerce merchants are able to use StagingPro to stage and test on their primary storefront. This is a particularly huge upgrade for anyone who works in our ecosystem and enjoys experimenting with design and user experience flows before pushing to live production.

Why is staging important?

Staging is important for many reasons, but one reason really stands out: you want to test and observe your changes and approve them before pushing them to production where users interact with your program. It’s important for users to have intuitive, friction-free experiences online, and programs that haven’t been adequately tested are frequently problematic.

Staging allows developers, and in this case any merchant or developer on the platform, to observe and interact with their changes before making them visible to users. This allows for optimal user experiences, repeat customers, the list goes on!

“We are setting a new era of digital experiences through moving data, design, code, generating previews and scheduling deployments across multiple BigCommerce stores. StagingPro will accelerate RoI, improve efficiency and reduce the total cost of ownership for businesses worldwide.”

Susant Patro, CEO of StagingPro

StagingPro is a cost-effective, highly automated staging solution that allows for web development at the speed your business demands. StagingPro allows you to build staging websites as exact replicas, including the same data as the production environment, even including theme!

The best part?

You’re able to easily manage your StagingPro environment launches all from your BigCommerce control panel.

I’m interested! What’s next?
