Excellent, scalability, functionality, and flexibility; but, the price could be reduced

The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution. They are both excellent, and you can easily customize them. The integration side of it with Hybris OCC to integrate with other systems is also effective. That's also a useful feature. It primarily has a lot of features that provide a significant advantage, and it's very good. It's out of the box, it's a new spectrum. It's good, but it depends on how you are customizing it to your benefit. It depends on your business objective and your angle, and how you want to go about it. It's flexible, you can do anything with it. I don't have any issues with the interface.

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."

"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."

"The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution."

"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."

"The tool supports multiple currencies."

"If you have a client and they want to have an e-commerce project that is based on solid principles, you don't need too much time to develop it."

"The tool has good performance."

"SAP Hybris Commerce is a very advanced e-commerce platform compared to other platforms such as WebSphere Commerce, Oracle Commerce, and others."

More SAP Commerce Cloud pros

Cons

"They should provide integration with social networking sites."

"The stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"The WCS management or content management is not that great."

"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."

"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."

More SAP Commerce Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."

"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."

"The price is quite high."

"The solution is expensive."

"This is an expensive solution."
