Featured Reviews

Marco Almeida - PeerSpot reviewer
An extremely flexible and highly scalable platform offering exceptional customer support to its users
Magento is very flexible, and it's one of the biggest e-commerce platforms. I would say that there are a lot of system integrators worldwide, which is great. So, I think you can have access and higher expert system integrators all over the world. Sometimes, the system integrators feel the need for Magento to be more customizable. It's a very agnostic platform, so you need to customize everything. For some kinds of features, it probably could be a good idea to have the solution customized so that it can be an out-of-the-box solution. But it's a good platform, pretty much from my perspective. I'm not a technical person, but we had some kind of late response in page loading, let's say page load speed. I don't know if it's from Magento or based on the solution that was built by the system integrator. I think it is a mix of both. Getting a platform that is really fast is something important for our customers. So we need to make sure that every time we are building a store, we are going to deliver very good page load speed performance.

The solution offers a great way to share products, profiles, and user accounts across multiple sites
We're currently exploring cloud solutions for our e-commerce solution. Oracle has a cloud solution, but some on-prem features are not available in the cloud version. I started looking into what other cloud products are available that we can leverage. I would like Oracle to add all the on-prem features of the solution to the cloud.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform provides an easy way to customize its features."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of integration with any upfront platform or CMS solution."
"It provides AI features, including a tool called Insight for AI-driven product recommendations."
"The platform allows us to easily integrate with service vendors, such as delivery services and payment systems."
"We have the ability to resolve service issues since Magento enables us to invest more time in dealing with custom requirements."
"The ecosystem includes thousands of vendors who are providing third-party add-ons."
"Magento has changed over the years, but one of the most interesting aspects is that it gets the job done, and a vast community of experts is knowledgeable about the solution."
"The open-source PHP code allows our developers to customize pretty much anything on the platform, including allowing us to add some of the most complex shipping and inventory features for clients who have very specific, industry-related business specifications."
"The product is really good. It is a robust tool that can scale up in any business, including some multi-million businesses."
"The features that help us to change the product and pricing are good. They give us enough flexibility to manage this application."
"The tool's most valuable features are its integration with various scanners, OCR capability, and ability to populate the system with a lot of information. We use the workload automation feature occasionally."
"The tool is useful for B2B retail operations. The e-commerce platform is helpful for our customers when searching for products they want to buy. They can look up items using part numbers or product descriptions, which helps them find exactly what they want. We rely on the search functionality a lot."
"The merchandising part is where the business user adds and configures permissions, which is quite important for us."
"The most valuable features are all the promotion capabilities and the tiered-pricing capabilities."
 

Cons

"More technical knowledge is required to keep a Magento website running smoothly compared to many other platforms like OpenCart."
"I am still playing around and trying to catch up with the latest version to understand all the features, but I do feel that its CMS can be much more streamlined. They provide a what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor, which many customers prefer, but based on the implementations that I have done for more than seven years, I have seen that many times, it is run by the marketing team, and they don't find it very comfortable to use. They feel uncomfortable managing and changing the content. As a business user, you need to have at least basic knowledge of HTML, which you cannot expect from all marketing teams. Some companies or organizations have that competency, but many organizations, especially in the Middle East, have a very small team, so it becomes quite difficult for them. This is a common challenge that I have seen across the platforms. Magento is better and easier than Oracle Commerce Cloud, but Shopify is much easier than Magento. A layman or my 10-year-old kid can go ahead and set up a store in Shopify in probably 45 minutes, which is not the case with Magento. Elasticsearch has really been a pain. It takes a toll on the performance. Starting with version 2.4, Magento requires Elasticsearch, which has been causing a lot of serious performance issues. We had a client in the US who was running a promo, and they lost a subsequent number of orders over one and a half hours. They were on the enterprise platform, not open-source. The team had to open a ticket with Magento. Its performance needs to be upgraded, or some kind of guidelines have to be provided for the setup. It looks like even Magento has no clue. When you go through the answers given in the online community, it seems that in spite of having the hardware configurations that they suggest, it is not performing at the optimal level. It should also have a better way to measure performance. Performance measuring has to be much easier. Many times, we see CPU utilization going up and down. We see spikes without any reason. Therefore, we need a better performance management system."
"I'm not a technical person, but we had some kind of late response in page loading, let's say page load speed."
"Magneto is monolithic in character, making it difficult for us to scale up very high quickly on the content side."
"One significant drawback of Commerce is its substantial size, which allows for extensive customization but also elongates the development process for an e-commerce website."
"Magento 2 is only three to four years old, so it is an evolving technology. In certain areas on the front there were some glitches. For example, you can't do certain kinds of filters on data and you have certain speed issues on category pages due to the way it was written within Magento. Those were a few minor tweaks where we, as a community, found that to be a necessary scope of improvement. But I think they are working on it and hopefully they can solve these issues earlier than later."
"The analytics are good but there is room for improvement. There are some limitations due to new regulations causing customer data time delays."
"The industry has evolved, and the main focus is composable solutions because of which now SAP and Magento are forced to tackle various aspects of commerce, including commerce tools and pricing strategies, among other things."
"Oracle has a cloud solution, but some on-prem features are not available in the cloud version."
"The only issue with the tool is that it is not cloud-based."
"So far, with Oracle ATG, I haven't seen any good cloud-based solutions."
"One drawback is that the tool could be more agile in adding new features. Since the product is very big, new features aren't added continuously. However, it already meets most of our requirements for day-to-day use."
"The UI might not be the fanciest, and since it's an older system, our customers are sometimes hesitant to invest in it. They're even considering moving to new e-commerce solutions, maybe even something custom-built in-house."
"There should be some sort of native integration. All the integrations that we build are completely customized. There should also be a mechanism for user surveys and product reviews. As of now, I don't see any feature related to these. It must have a provision for doing customer surveys and allowing customers to give product feedback. If I have a customer who purchased something on the website, there has to be a mechanism for a company to capture the feedback. This feature is currently not there. Similarly, if a customer wants to do a review of the product, there is no native feature for that."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of implementation is cheap compared to other solutions."
"This solution is cheaper than some of its competitors. However, the price depends on which country you are in. In some countries, such as Greece or some Southeastern European countries, the price for the client can be expensive."
"The product offers an open-source version, which is free. There are licensing options for Adobe Commerce's cloud version."
"The price of the solution increased after Adobe acquired Magento. At this point, we know the price of Magento and SAP, and while they may have lower entry tickets, they are ultimately comparable."
"We transitioned from the platform's commercial license to the open-source version, which helped optimize costs without affecting our sales."
"Many implementations were open-source. We also had a couple of enterprise-level implementations, but I didn't have visibility on the licensing cost."
"The tool's licensing is costly. Finding the right talent to manage it is also a challenge."
"Oracle ATG is an expensive solution."
"The product's pricing is moderate. We use a license module."

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…
