Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Offers real-time data fetching for e-commerce businesses along with effortless maintenance and excellent tech support

The initial setup is not straightforward, as it varies depending on the business use cases. If experienced professionals are handling the deployment then there are not many obstacles. I would rate the initial setup of Adobe Commerce as nine out of ten. At our company, we work with the cloud version of Adobe Commerce. We used a Waterfall model in our organization, deriving standard SDLC life cycle processes to deploy Adobe Commerce. The solution's initial deployment took around eight months in our company. As part of the initial setup, 11 professionals were required from our company team. The product can be maintained effortlessly.

Easy to use, robust and fast checkout capabilities, and offers a wholesale interface for B2B customers

There is very little that needs to be improved, as BigCommerce is very proactive and is continuously releasing new updates. They are very effective at modernizing their product, but since no product is perfect and can always improve, a few things that I think BigCommerce could do better is to create a better reporting module for merchants. There are apps available that help with this in their app store, but it would be nice to have this built-in for things such as running reports for sales tax reporting. The theme editor that was recently added is wonderful, but it not totally intuitive.

Managing Consultant at Systems Limited

Easy to set up, and extremely scalable, but is expensive

The solution is complex due to the rapid development of new features in SAP Commerce, which requires the changing of older technologies and migration to new ones. This makes the process quite complex, especially when migrating from one version to another. For example, I have been using SAP Commerce versions 18 and 19.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The solution's valuable features are the presentation layout and ease of use. When we have new people joining the team, it is simple for them to get involved very quickly."

"The most valuable feature in this solution I have found to be that I have the ability to find all the analytics that I need. It has very good integrations with social media platforms and other tools."

"The product can be maintained effortlessly."

"The platform provides an easy way to customize its features."

"The ecosystem includes thousands of vendors who are providing third-party add-ons."

"Magento is very flexible, and it's one of the biggest e-commerce platforms."

"It provides AI features, including a tool called Insight for AI-driven product recommendations."

"As compared to platforms such as ATG or Commerce Cloud, its interface is easy to use. Magento also provides seamless administration for business users. You can also integrate an OMS to an extent. You don't need to have a dedicated OMS. You can leverage the out-of-the-box features of Magento, which is very valuable for startups. Other platforms, such as Commerce Cloud, don't have an OMS, and you have to have your own OMS solution."

More Adobe Commerce pros

"BigCommerce has an excellent B2B interface, which gives merchants the ability to sell with different price books and the ability to segment clients."

"We like that this solution gives our B2B clients a lot of functionality straight 'out of the box', meaning that they don't need to carry out a lot of configuration to be able to use it."

"Hybris Commerce's most valuable feature is the simple integration with ERP."

"I chose this out-of-box E-Commerce solution because it helps you start up your E-Commerce business in a very good amount of time since Hybris already provides you the end-to-end flow with minimum customization. You can quickly go live with the customer."

"SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."

"SAP Hybris Commerce is a very advanced e-commerce platform compared to other platforms such as WebSphere Commerce, Oracle Commerce, and others."

"The tool supports multiple currencies."

"The tool has good performance."

"We have found the B2B, B2C and D2C very valuable."

More SAP Commerce Cloud pros

Cons

"The performance is a bottleneck in Magento and there is a lot of room for improvement in this regard."

"I'm not a technical person, but we had some kind of late response in page loading, let's say page load speed."

"The industry has evolved, and the main focus is composable solutions because of which now SAP and Magento are forced to tackle various aspects of commerce, including commerce tools and pricing strategies, among other things."

"The data analysis could be improved. The data that you receive whenever you go into the backend of the platform for the analysis is very simple and basic, it could be a little more sophisticated in order to be closer to the client. The data analysis and intelligence of the platform could be better."

"The solution takes a huge amount of time to complete the root cause analysis."

"The analytics are good but there is room for improvement. There are some limitations due to new regulations causing customer data time delays."

"Should have a way to communicate properly with the team that builds the platform"

"The limited availability of experienced developers can make the product costly to maintain."

More Adobe Commerce cons

"The theme editor that was recently added is wonderful, but it not totally intuitive."

"They have just started to work with the cloud, but they only support Microsoft Azure."

"We would like to be able to easily add functionality to the CMS, such as instant messaging. This would make is much more usable, especially in B2C scenarios."

"The stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies."

"SAP Commerce needs to have a credit limit like Salesforce. Currently, we have to do the coding and customization and then showcase it to the user."

"Like every other SAP solution, it is very heavy. Also, the transition to the cloud is not very smooth because it is not really a SaaS solution. The upgrades are also not as smooth as you would expect from a complete cloud solution. It should have a product recommendation feature as well as a promotional feature. It should also have more personalizations."

"The support team should improve the response time."

"They could include additional types of payment implementations. Right now they are just providing CyberSourse."

"The initial setup was complex because it was a prime migration from the PrestaShop platform to commerce cloud, and it was very, very complex to migrate some data from one side to the other."

More SAP Commerce Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is cheaper than some of its competitors. However, the price depends on which country you are in. In some countries, such as Greece or some Southeastern European countries, the price for the client can be expensive."

"The cost of implementation is cheap compared to other solutions."

"The product offers an open-source version, which is free. There are licensing options for Adobe Commerce's cloud version."

"The price of the solution increased after Adobe acquired Magento. At this point, we know the price of Magento and SAP, and while they may have lower entry tickets, they are ultimately comparable."

"Many implementations were open-source. We also had a couple of enterprise-level implementations, but I didn't have visibility on the licensing cost."

"We transitioned from the platform's commercial license to the open-source version, which helped optimize costs without affecting our sales."

Information not available

"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."

"This is an expensive solution."

"SAP Hybris is expensive, which is why only the large clients use it. At the same time, I think that the return on investment warrants it."

"The price is quite high."

"The price is too high."

"The solution is expensive."

"The product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."

"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."
