Featured Reviews

Vijay Subramanyam - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers seamless integrations and effective architecture for retail operations
Salesforce Commerce Cloud offers effective architecture, ease of integration with third-party systems, and environments to test web store functionalities. Users can manage the site independently with the administration panel and benefit from features like easy marketing submissions, discount codes, and integration with Apple Pay and Bazaarvoice for reviews. The platform is also robust, with managed infrastructure by Salesforce.
Saleem Shar - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"Salesforce offers the best features and functionality, which are developed and refined over many years to provide a highly customized e-commerce experience."
"Salesforce Commerce Cloud offers a personalized experience tailored to each B2B client. It allows for easy customization according to specific customer needs. Additionally, once a customer finalizes a product with pricing, negotiations and settled prices can be logged into the transcript for future reference and reuse. These features make the platform highly adaptable and efficient, providing a seamless and customizable process tailored to individual preferences."
"Commerce Cloud's best features include sales service and cloud marketing."
"​Ability to quickly add content and manage products along with associated web content easily."
"I wouldn't say they have artificial intelligence, as it's not really AI, however, the data analysis that they provide to you is good."
"It is a very flexible solution."
"The solution is quite stable."
"If you have a client and they want to have an e-commerce project that is based on solid principles, you don't need too much time to develop it."
"SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."
"Some of the most valuable features are its personalized offering, promotion engine, and customer support module."
"We have found the B2B, B2C and D2C very valuable."
"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."
"The user interface can be customized."
"The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution."
"SAP Hybris Commerce is a very advanced e-commerce platform compared to other platforms such as WebSphere Commerce, Oracle Commerce, and others."
 

Cons

"We would like more interaction from Salesforce about new versions."
"Being able to customize everything in general to our specific needs would be pretty awesome."
"The performance of the solution has room for improvement. We sometimes experience some delays."
"Salesforce Commerce Cloud should integrate more seamlessly with various systems, providing full order tracking from entry to delivery."
"There is always room for improvement with any solution."
"In the next release, Commerce Cloud should add CRM dashboards."
"The dashboards for this solution could be improved."
"It is similar to ATG, but some features can be exchanged between the 2."
"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."
"The stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies."
"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."
"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 learning curve is high."
"A public cloud solution of this software would open great possibilities."
"They have just started to work with the cloud, but they only support Microsoft Azure."
"The WCS management or content management is not that great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't know how much the solution costs per user, but I know it's our biggest cost in the company."
"There are no significant upfront license costs."
"The licensing of Salesforce Commerce Cloud is something that will depend on the customer's usability. For us as a company, we are in a position where we will be paying the premium for licensing. If we go to the customer who is seeking a B2C solution quickly, we will definitely look at the pricing when it comes to the user base and receive good discounts. Discount is something that depends on the volume and that is where we need to work on. It is a little sensitive market when it comes to licensing procurement. There are some good competitors."
"I think price-wise, it's a little bit expensive. It can be made cheaper for smaller businesses. I understand that for larger businesses, it can be a payable amount. But for medium to smaller, it is kind of costly, and it might be difficult for them to pay."
"Initially when we installed Salesforce, we thought that it was a bit pricey, but I think for the value that we're getting, it’s suitable."
"The licensing works on a per-user basis."
"The product is expensive."
"Salesforce is not a cheap 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 product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."
"The price is too high."
"The solution is expensive."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."
"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."

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…
