Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi

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.

Reviewer245674

ERP Enterprise Architect at a pharma/biotech company with 201-500 employees

Reduced the customer care team's time, got us new customers, and required no third-party integrations

Their support should have more in-depth knowledge about different ERP solutions that they connect to. There could also be more support about everything that is related to website management, which is not strictly related to the B2B tool. These are the things like knowing about GDPR regulations, knowing about digital consents, and in general, all the laws that go with having a website. Sometimes, we would have liked more support in that area. There could also be more features coming out on the platform, but I know they are already working on that. I know they're changing the way they manage that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"On the plus side, when you build everything from scratch in Magento, you can do magic with it."

"The platform allows us to easily integrate with service vendors, such as delivery services and payment systems."

"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 open-source PHP code allows our developers to customize pretty much anything on the platform, including allowing us to add some of the most complex shipping and inventory features for clients who have very specific, industry-related business specifications."

"We have the ability to resolve service issues since Magento enables us to invest more time in dealing with custom requirements."

"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 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."

More Adobe Commerce pros

"The big benefit with Sana is our ability to interface with Microsoft Dynamics."

"The most valuable feature is the direct ERP integration, as it allows us to provide product availability and specific pricing in real-time. Customers can also order themselves in real-time."

"We use Sana Commerce with Microsoft Dynamics on the back end and the native ERP integration works well. The fact that no third-party integrations are needed between our Sana Commerce web store and Microsoft Dynamics is important. It's one less thing to worry about when it comes to troubleshooting."

"I found it surprisingly easy from both the admin side and the customer side. The admin side has a limited set of features, but they are very well explained. They are very simple to understand. It is very easy to find out what every feature does. It is not really complicated. Sana provides an online university where you can learn everything that you need about it. When we needed to check a new feature or validate how something works, we found solid online information on their website. If there was anything that we couldn't find, or if we really couldn't understand how exactly something was working, their support was always very quick. So, it is quite easy."

"This product is highly customizable. We use the standard system but we have extended it quite a bit."

Cons

"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."

"More technical knowledge is required to keep a Magento website running smoothly compared to many other platforms like OpenCart."

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

"The product needs to improve its security. Also, they need to improve B2B features."

"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."

"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."

More Adobe Commerce cons

"I'd rate their customer service a nine out of 10. I think they're in demand and a little overloaded on work. Sometimes it takes a little bit of time for them to get to our work."

"The performance can be improved. Sometimes, the system is really slow because of the ERP integration. I'm not sure whether this is a problem with Sana Commerce or the ERP system but overall, it could be faster. When it comes to usability, if it takes too much time to load, then it's not the best."

"We also didn't realize this going into it, but there is an RQS (requirements gathering) phase, which takes about a month. After that, there is a development phase that takes another month. There are also testing and go-live. If you want to introduce any new features or functionality, it's at least a three to four-month process, possibly more, because of the way their structure works. Everything has to be customized. They are resource-challenged as well."

"There could also be more support about everything that is related to website management, which is not strictly related to the B2B tool. These are the things like knowing about GDPR regulations, knowing about digital consents, and in general, all the laws that go with having a website. Sometimes, we would have liked more support in that area."

"One problem that we encounter is that it's difficult to upgrade as a result of making a large number of customer-specific adaptations."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"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."

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

"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."

"Support costs are in addition to the standard licensing fees, and they vary per month, based on how much we use them. It is not very expensive."

"When we got version 9.2, it was a good price. Everything is moving to the subscription-based cloud model, and that's probably a little high when you look at the lifetime cost."

"Sana's pricing is fair. It could be more competitive. It's not so much the licensing cost, it's the additional development."

"They have a policy of a price per legal entity. So, if you are a company that operates in one country, that is, if you're just an American company, or you're just a Spanish company or just a British company, then that probably makes sense. We are a global company, and we have operations in 20 to 30 different countries. So, we are interested in implementing Sana in potentially 20 to 30 countries. Right now, the pricing model of Sana has a limitation. They are almost asking for the same price for the new country when in many cases, a new country will just be a new small rollout. That's because it is the same solution that gets implemented everywhere. So, to me, it is not the same price if you are maintaining 10 Sanas that are looking exactly the same and are working exactly the same in 10 different countries. To me, these should not cost 10 times more than one. They don't yet have a good grasp of how to manage global companies like ours. That is something we are talking to them about, and we are in discussions with them about. So, hopefully, they will learn."
