The success or failure of an eCommerce brand depends on one very important factor- eCommerce web development. After all, it is what builds the foundation of an eCommerce business. An eCommerce website, mobile apps and the entire ecosystem are what influence and attract customers and subsequently result in sales & revenues.
eCommerce web development is what decides whether a brand would become the next Amazon in the making or become doomed like hundreds of failed eCommerce businesses.
So how to start a journey towards building the next big thing in eCommerce? How to build an eCommerce website that makes the brand stand apart from the competition? Well, this journey starts with finding a good eCommerce development company for building a high performing, a stable and bug-free eCommerce website that your customers would love to shop from.
But finding an ideal eCommerce web development company amongst the hundreds of IT companies out there isn’t easy. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible either. I went through
the portfolios and client history of 100+ companies to find the top 10 eCommerce development companies that have helped startups step up their eCommerce game.
It took a lot of time and effort, but hopefully, it will be worth it for the sake of those entrepreneurs, CIOs and other business leaders looking for the perfect eCommerce web development partner.
Here are the top 10 eCommerce web development companies across the world that can help startups avoid failures and set the pace to their growth:
1. ValueCoders
Established: 2004
Location: India
“I had an idea of building my eStore and went to ValueCoders. They offered me a flexible onboarding plan and affordable price structure. I finished my project in less than 3 months with quality delivery. It was a good experience working with them”
- Review by Founding Partner, Risklogic
ValueCoders is an offshore IT Outsourcing company with 14+ years of experience in the web development industry. Among all companies I’ve gone through, I put ValueCoders at the top for its successful projects with startups, especially for its eCommerce web development clients across multiple countries.
ValueCoders has a lot of things in its favor- it’s located in India, one of the fastest, largest growing hub for IT Professionals. Since its located in India, there is an added advantage with ease of communication as English is the second official language of the sub-continent. Moreover, the cheaper rates for eCommerce web development far outmatch the rates offered by eCommerce development companies located in other countries.
Supported platforms for eCommerce web development: Magento, Drupal Commerce, WooCommerce, Prestashop, OpenCart, Shopify, NopCommerce.
2. Ziggle Tech
Established: 2015
Location: USA
“Ziggle Tech adjusts their style and approach to their client’s needs. They are always trying to improve, which has been one of the biggest contributors to our successful, ongoing relationship. Our partnership is constantly evolving”
- Review by CEO, Conscious Group
Ziggle is a New York-based eCommerce web development company which also specializes in helping eCommerce businesses re-platform their website and other services. Re-platforming as a service is highly beneficial for startups looking to upgrade their plans, capacity or shift to an entirely new platform altogether.
Ziggle-tech primarily caters to mid-level and certain small level enterprises to meet their eCommerce needs and set their pace towards growth at a higher level. The company works on its projects based on a 7-step process, which involves discussion, storyboarding, prototyping, sprints, and finally, a feedback and acceptance cycle which runs until the project is completed and ready to be deployed.
The main reason why Ziggle Tech earned the 2nd place was because of its excellent client retention efforts and the partnerships they forge with them.

3. Brainvire
Established: 2000
Location: USA
“It’s a pleasurable experience working with Brainvire Infotech Inc. I’ve worked with other developers, and I certainly think they’re a cut above the others. The quality of work has been excellent. I’ve been doing this for six years, and they’ve been my favorite to work with.”

Established: 2004
Location: India
“They’re extremely hardworking and dedicated to their work. They don’t lose patience with high expectations and do their absolute best to deliver the results you want to see.”
- Review by CEO of a Software Company
Planet Web Solution is a multi-service eCommerce web development company with 14+ years of experience in the Industry. The company has consistently ranked at the top 15 positions for Clutch’s Global top eCommerce developers since January 2017. Besides, it has 9/9/10 TrustScore given by trustspot.io, which is enough to stake its claim at the fourth position on the list.
The only reason why I couldn’t rank Planet Web solution any higher was because of some issues faces by its clients in QA, which as I observed was mentioned on multiple reviews. But hey, this is just simple nitpicking and doesn’t undermine Planet Web Solution’s potential in any way.
Besides eCommerce web development, the company is also well-known for its web and mobile app development services which have earned rave reviews from its past clients.

7. Web4You
Established: 2005
Location: Canada
“Their turnaround times were impressive. They quickly resolved issues and delivered enhancements. Within weeks of initiating the project, Web4You delivered a prototype and a system for us to begin testing. Their expertise enabled them to offer suggestions that ultimately made the design more efficient.”
- Review by Rocco Zito, Director of Distribution services, The Travel Corporation
Web4You provides eCommerce web development services based on three core principles of Simplicity, Personalization (tailored solutions) and Affordability. These three values define everything Web4You is all about. Simplicity in their context implies that they let their clients express their business in their own ways. It’s literally “simple” in the sense that there isn’t a game of suggesting or consulting a client about what’s the best. They simply expect you to know what you want and they’ll deliver it accordingly.
And that’s where the personalization aspect comes in. Their eCommerce web development services are tailored to the point that a client has complete control over every activity in the project. The most relevant principle of all is their attempts to keep prices affordable to the client.
Supported platforms for eCommerce development: Custom eCommerce solutions, Magento, WooCommerce, Shopify
8. Rave Digital
Established: 2007
Location: USA
“They care. If we have a need, they take care of that need. They’re not just there to collect money from us like a lot of other development companies. When they say they’re going to do something, they do it. Other developers I’ve worked with in the past haven’t lived up to those standards. I ultimately think they’re very good at what they do, and they follow through.”
