Fast and flexible: Stable and scalable.

Overall, our experience with commercetools is great. They provide the support we need and have great API documentation. Their services are fast and robust and provide the flexibility needed to integrate with third-party platforms. We trust their platform and they are best in the headless ecommerce space.

PROS

We love the stability and flexibility of the commercetools' platform. There are rarely business needs that the platform cannot meet. The APIs are stable and fast allowing us to build world-class shopping experiences for our customers. There is a robust messaging system that integrates with standard event buses which allow our team to integrate with the best third-party products we have. The customer success team is easily reachable and thoroughly answers our questions. A team of four developers can manage a single headless ecommerce site using commercetools. It is a great platform for a growing company.

CONS

We have issues with running some types of promotions and discounts within commercetools. We've also had trouble looking to migrate to a different identification platform. The Merchant Center dashboard is slow and buggy which makes the administrative experience difficult and the company does not view open source as the future of software, which makes it difficult to report bugs and makes our team wary of the company's future.

Reason for choosing commercetools

commercetools had the fastest API with the best uptime. It was also the most flexible and had great documentation.

Reasons for switching to commercetools

NetSuite Suite Commerce Advanced does not support a headless architecture which limits our capabilities to customize the site and integrate with additional SaaS platforms. SCA also limited our site speed.

An Commerce tool engine

Like that its possible to communicate with API - so that we can use different more user friendly custom built tools in the back end to update product, prices and campign in the future.

PROS

Its very flexible to create and store the information we need

CONS

We have so many double fields - to be able to support the different brand site. So the new fields for market per store - is crusual for us to be able to ad new stores that are in the roadmap for 2024.

Reasons for switching to commercetools

We had different systems for our different brands - all are Old and near End of Life. So an upgrade was crusual. + need to have one common system for all Brand to be able to efficient handle it. Dont know what Magento solution

Good engine for headless ecommerce

The SAAS solution as main engine for shop is for sure much different approach than self hosted monolith. In general switching to MACH helped us to organize teams responsibilities. Selecting CommerceTools as main engine was good decision, and we still discover new ways of using it.

PROS

We don't need to care anymore for hosting, performance, database or upscaling.

CONS

Lot of customizations we had to prepare on our own.

Reason for choosing commercetools

Shop performance with headless setup. MACH architecture was important because of lot of integrations.

Reasons for switching to commercetools

Our solution was not so elastic for many customizations. We used to have performance issues, also we had to keep an eye on hosting the product.

Reliable partner, stable, high-performance engine

The software is very stable and performant and we have not had any failures or any bugs in the past few years. The platform development process is therefore very good and Commercetools is a reliable partner. The platform is constantly being developed with new features, which are presented in a quarterly meeting.

PROS

Provides the most important e-commerce features headless and gets extended with more practical features every quarter. In addition to the standard e-commerce functions, the discount engine or rule engine offers many options to support various campaigns.

CONS

Both the search in the Commercetools backend and the product search for the frontend don't work really well. According to the roadmap, the search should be significantly improved and future.

Reason for choosing commercetools

According to our evaluation, Commercetools was the most suitable tool because it offers us the most important functionalities and we still remain fully flexible.

Reasons for switching to commercetools

Because the monolithic shop software was outdated and inflexible.
