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 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

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

"I think it is adequate because Adobe Commerce has many software options; with Adobe-related software, I can purchase every software from here and I can use it, so I think it is perfect for using software."

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

"The product can be maintained effortlessly."

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

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

"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."

"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."

More Adobe Commerce pros

"Its dashboards, business features, and user-friendliness of a lot of business interfaces are valuable. We work on B2B projects, and it is the most efficient software solution for B2B. The B2B accelerator is very much appreciated by our customers because it has some use cases that are ready for production. For some projects, we proposed the SAP Hybris solution because it was sufficient for use cases related to product management and data quality. With other e-commerce platforms, we would have needed integration with another product information management software."

"The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution."

"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."

"It's the best tool on the market and is a complete e-commerce system for product management. For instance, if the customer has a log enterprise level product, they can manage it here."

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

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

"The tool supports multiple currencies."

"The user interface can be customized."

More SAP Commerce Cloud pros

Cons

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

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

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

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

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

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

"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."

More Adobe Commerce cons

"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the product search. There will be multiple criteria to search products and there will be a number of products in different categories. The question is how soon can I find the product which I'm looking for. The search can be improved."

"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."

"The WCS management or content management is not that great."

"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."

"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."

"Hybris is not currently using microservices."

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

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

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."

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

"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 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."

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

"The price is too high."

"This is an expensive solution."

"The price is quite 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."

"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 solution is very expensive in Turkey."

WCS vs Hybris vs ATG - Feature Smackdown

They say "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder", so if you are a purist in one of these technologies you would probably never agree to my comparison matrix, However these are my personal opinion, From my experience standpoint I have longest exposure to WCS Commerce Suite and the least with ATG…
