What is the cost to add the Vexture subscription?
-
The price can vary based on number of SKU's in your store (Active, not child products) and monthly query volume. Base price which has been enough for about 70% of the people who've signed up so far is $500 per month. -
Thanks for the clarification Rick. $500 month is what I thought it would be.
Will have to decline as it is unaffordable for a company on our level.
In addition to Miva's already steep monthly cost, we are already on the hook for a roughly additional $1500 monthly cost to manage marketplaces, inventory, vendor API's, shipping software, tax stuff and a POS system. The constant subscription drain on our already extremely tight profit margins is just never ending.
Years ago, when Miva's subscription cost was drastically increased, to account for the many great developments to the platform, staying on was a tough decision to make. But the all inclusive of a top notch ecommerce platform is what made me hang in.
Now it seems the all inclusive is no more and the extra's are starting to pile up.Comment

Pat,
The baseline we keep seeing is a 10% increase in average daily sales and the average is near 40%, so you'd have to do the math to see if that makes sense for you? We're happy to give you a free trial and set it up for you to prove if it helps your business or not.
We do not plan to start charging one off for features in the software, but this isn't that. This is a new platform (a la a SearchSpring), yes it's deeply built into Miva, but it's something we might eventually sell on other platforms as well as a standalone product offering.
The only other product line that has discrete costs is Miva Connect, which is the ERP connectors.
In both bases they're unique.
For as far as I can see today, we have no plans to start gating core features and charging more for premium features. That is normal, both Shopify and BigCommerce do exactly that, however that's not something we want to do.Comment
