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.

Platform has supported global rollouts and has delivered faster, more reliable commerce journeys
In my view, SAP Commerce Cloud can be improved as it currently feels too heavy, with customers nowadays expecting solutions to be deployed in months rather than years. This is the most significant issue with SAP Commerce Cloud, which caters primarily to Fortune 500 companies and falls short for mid-sized businesses. I do not have a clear idea on which specific feature they should implement to better serve the smaller business market, despite their several past attempts. Regarding potential improvements for SAP Commerce Cloud, I am not the best person to discuss deployments as I lack a DevOps background. However, I believe the primary enhancement should be in their vision and communication of product benefits. Personally, I have found SAP salespeople to be less friendly compared to their Salesforce counterparts. Their inflexibility regarding discounts and offers might be an area for improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"For us, it is a critical thing to know that all the information is managed within ERP, there is no third-party solution, there are no interfaces, and this is, in our opinion, a critical reason for the existing success."
"Using Sana Commerce has helped to increase customer engagement online."
"The site saves us the time we used to spend on emails and phone calls with customers, has helped reduce manual work because we're not entering in phone orders or email orders, and has driven a 10 to 15 percent increase in new customers along with strong adoption by existing customers."
"The big benefit with Sana is our ability to interface with Microsoft Dynamics."
"Eventually, when we got it up and running, the solution helped to streamline our processes for bridging our ERP and eCommerce systems."
"SAP Hybris Commerce is a very advanced e-commerce platform compared to other platforms such as WebSphere Commerce, Oracle Commerce, and others."
"SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."
"Overall, a request time of two to three months is a very efficient time for creating the E-Commerce session to go live."
"Hybris Commerce's most valuable feature is the simple integration with ERP."
"We work on B2B projects, and it is the most efficient software solution for B2B."
"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."
"Through the ability to consolidate disparate knowledge repositories either through synchronous asynchronous, API batch, synchronization or other custom methods, I can disseminate as much or as little data through the widest variety of channels."
 

Cons

"One problem that we encounter is that it's difficult to upgrade as a result of making a large number of customer-specific adaptations."
"The performance can be improved. Sometimes, the system is really slow because of the ERP integration."
"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."
"Their support should have more in-depth knowledge about different ERP solutions that they connect to."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"They could include additional types of payment implementations. Right now they are just providing CyberSourse."
"SAP Hybris does not employ the latest technologies. For example, they still use GSP, Tag Files, an older version of Java, no microservices, and no Amazon Web Services."
"A public cloud solution of this software would open great possibilities."
"The learning curve is high."
"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."
"In my view, SAP Commerce Cloud can be improved as it currently feels too heavy, with customers nowadays expecting solutions to be deployed in months rather than years."
"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 support team should improve the response time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"Sana's pricing is fair. It could be more competitive. It's not so much the licensing cost, it's the additional development."
"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 product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."
"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."
"The solution is expensive."
"The price is quite high."
"The price is too high."
"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."
