Improving User Experience with Effective Platform Integration
Based on my experience with SAP Commerce Cloud, I have thoughts regarding data analysis and analytics; I know they have this feature because I've never seen it. When I ask my colleagues about data, they say they don't have it, so I may need to inform them that SAP Commerce Cloud has such a feature because they never have data about the e-commerce currently. The multi-languages and multi-currency features in SAP Commerce Cloud are useful for us because we have it cross-country, with an e-commerce presence in the US and another in Europe. Based on my experience, working with SAP Commerce Cloud can be a bit complex, considering what my colleagues say, but I haven't had direct experience with this. I rate SAP Commerce Cloud five out of ten.

They tailor the design as per our needs and take care of sales tax in all the countries
Their customer support has some room for improvement. Our customers can contact Softline for billing-related questions, and sometimes, the customers come back to us because there are some delays from Softline's end. They have translated and localized all billing-related information, but their support is in English. This is something that could be improved. Our previous partner had a really good admin panel. We could apply some settings on our own without any additional help from our partner. For example, we could change the design, settings, and the fields that show up on the widget, whereas with Softline, we cannot do that. Everything is on their end. It would be good if they provide some tools in the admin panel to make some minor changes. They should also allow us to customize the widget, at least the color. In this aspect, we are currently limited. We cannot really change the design, and the widget is just the way it was developed. The admin panel is also a bit confusing. Our previous partner had a really intuitive and user-friendly admin panel. We could easily find everything. Softline's admin panel is a bit complicated. So, it took us time. I think they plan to improve it, and they might apply some changes in the future.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In one week, we can build a complete e-commerce solution."
"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."
"We work on B2B projects, and it is the most efficient software solution for B2B."

"Softline eCommerce has helped to increase our eCommerce sales and conversion rate in our shopping cart, and our customer satisfaction is now at 95 percent, which is huge."

So, it has really helped us to increase our sales."
"The technology is very simple to use."

Cons

"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."
"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."
"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 stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies."

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…
