A scalable tool that can be integrated with any platform
The product's setup is not a big issue. I would rate the product's setup an eight out of ten. The time taken for deployment depends from project to project. I have worked on projects which completed deployment in three to six months and others where the process took a year to complete. We follow the agile methodology for the tool's deployment. We conduct the unit testing, and IT testing and then release the solution to our platform. You need a 25-30 member team to manage the deployment process which can include business analysts, project managers, front-end and back-end developers, and QAs. Four to five technical staff is required for the product's maintenance. This technical staff team analyzes issues and asks the developers to fix them. The issues get fixed and implemented in the solution's next release.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a scalable solution."
"The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution."
"SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."
"The tool has good performance."
"Hybris Commerce's most valuable feature is the simple integration with ERP."
"I chose this out-of-box E-Commerce solution because it helps you start up your E-Commerce business in a very good amount of time since Hybris already provides you the end-to-end flow with minimum customization. You can quickly go live with the customer."
"SAP Hybris Commerce is a very advanced e-commerce platform compared to other platforms such as WebSphere Commerce, Oracle Commerce, and others."
"The user interface can be customized."
"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."
 

Cons

"They should provide integration with social networking sites."
"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 learning curve is high."
"The WCS management or content management is not that great."
"They have just started to work with the cloud, but they only support Microsoft Azure."
"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."
"They could include additional types of payment implementations. Right now they are just providing CyberSourse."
"SAP Commerce needs to have a credit limit like Salesforce. Currently, we have to do the coding and customization and then showcase it to the user."
"Like every other SAP solution, it is very heavy. Also, the transition to the cloud is not very smooth because it is not really a SaaS solution. The upgrades are also not as smooth as you would expect from a complete cloud solution. It should have a product recommendation feature as well as a promotional feature. It should also have more personalizations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's price is reasonable."
"The solution is expensive."
"The price is quite high."
"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."
"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."
"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 price is too high."

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…
