Earlier they used to have a dedicated Q/A (Question/Answer) website called, experts.hybris.com and it was extremely popular among Hybris (SAP Commerce) developers. The contributions from experts were so strong that for most of the questions, developers used to get a solution within an hour. However, probably as part of the cost-cutting process, SAP migrated it to answers.sap.com which is not dedicated to Hybris (SAP Commerce) and also not as attractive as experts.hybris.com. Most of the experts stopped contributing immediately and some stopped doing so after a few weeks. Ever since this migration, Hybris (SAP Commerce) developers have been struggling for solutions. A simple proof is that more than 70% of Hybris (SAP Commerce) questions on answers.sap.com are unanswered for over a year. As a result, many developers have been switching to other platforms since this migration. SAP must be spending 10 times more money on the marketing of SAP Commerce than the amount of money needed to support the dedicated platform but it seems SAP will realize this when it will be already too late to repair the damage.
