Featured Reviews

Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have the ability to resolve service issues since Magento enables us to invest more time in dealing with custom requirements."
"Magento is very flexible, and it's one of the biggest e-commerce platforms."
"Magento provides a strong backing, meaning it can handle the order processing, customer management, configuration, third party payment integration, and shipping matters. There is a standard, very well set up architecture already present in Magento that helps them set up their online shops with much precision. Clients can see their reports, their daily sales, their best selling products, and their best buying customers so that they can target them through mails or just follow up with them. These are the main default features which make Magento so attractive."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of integration with any upfront platform or CMS solution."
"The platform allows us to easily integrate with service vendors, such as delivery services and payment systems."
"The ecosystem includes thousands of vendors who are providing third-party add-ons."
"Magento has changed over the years, but one of the most interesting aspects is that it gets the job done, and a vast community of experts is knowledgeable about the solution."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"Magneto is monolithic in character, making it difficult for us to scale up very high quickly on the content side."
"Magento 2 is only three to four years old, so it is an evolving technology. In certain areas on the front there were some glitches. For example, you can't do certain kinds of filters on data and you have certain speed issues on category pages due to the way it was written within Magento. Those were a few minor tweaks where we, as a community, found that to be a necessary scope of improvement. But I think they are working on it and hopefully they can solve these issues earlier than later."
"The hardware requirements of the tool should be made better, as it is a solution that is very heavy on the servers, and it makes it expensive to host many servers."
"The solution’s performance could be improved."
"The product needs to improve its security. Also, they need to improve B2B features."
"The analytics are good but there is room for improvement. There are some limitations due to new regulations causing customer data time delays."
"One significant drawback of Commerce is its substantial size, which allows for extensive customization but also elongates the development process for an e-commerce website."
"The solution takes a huge amount of time to complete the root cause analysis."
"They should provide integration with social networking sites."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We transitioned from the platform's commercial license to the open-source version, which helped optimize costs without affecting our sales."
"The product offers an open-source version, which is free. There are licensing options for Adobe Commerce's cloud version."
"Many implementations were open-source. We also had a couple of enterprise-level implementations, but I didn't have visibility on the licensing cost."
"The cost of implementation is cheap compared to other solutions."
"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 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."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
