Allows for easy customization according to specific customer needs
Salesforce Commerce Cloud is a cloud-based multi-tenant platform. Customizing the application requires a significant level of technical expertise, particularly in native Lightning Web Components development and Apex Development, which are the platform's native languages. It's essential to be aware of these limitations and any related recommendations. The limitation is the restriction on data storage, which can be crucial when dealing with clients who generate large orders and invoices. In such cases, alternative solutions may need to be considered, and integration with other applications may be necessary. While it offers streamlined integration capabilities with various applications, the data storage limit is a factor that must be considered when planning marketing strategies and solutions.

Can be connected to any of the SAP tools and is a complete e-commerce system
The WCS management or content management is not that great. Every one and a half to two years, Hybris stops updating or supporting previous versions. This means that the end-customer has to update their version every time. SAP Hybris can work on the virtual commerce (VR) feature, which is new to the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The conversion of opportunities and leads to accounts is one of the most valuable features."
"I wouldn't say they have artificial intelligence, as it's not really AI, however, the data analysis that they provide to you is good."
"Salesforce Commerce Cloud offers a personalized experience tailored to each B2B client. It allows for easy customization according to specific customer needs. Additionally, once a customer finalizes a product with pricing, negotiations and settled prices can be logged into the transcript for future reference and reuse. These features make the platform highly adaptable and efficient, providing a seamless and customizable process tailored to individual preferences."
"The features that are core to Salesforce including documentation and the variety of integrations available are most valuable."
"I find the reports to be the solution's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of Salesforce Commerce Cloud is the frequent updates. There will be a significant increase in the look and feel. You will be using the solution and think you might want a new feature to be added and then when they release the next release it is there. There are constantly improving the solution."
"Not having to worry about maintaining one's own infrastructure."
"The product is easy to use."
"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."
"We have found the B2B, B2C and D2C very valuable."
"Hybris offers a platform designed for speed."
"It's the best tool on the market and is a complete e-commerce system for product management. For instance, if the customer has a log enterprise level product, they can manage it here."
"We like that this solution gives our B2B clients a lot of functionality straight 'out of the box', meaning that they don't need to carry out a lot of configuration to be able to use it."
"The tool has good performance."
"The user interface can be customized."
 

Cons

"Being able to customize everything in general to our specific needs would be pretty awesome."
"Salesforce Commerce Cloud could improve overall customization. Having a template deployment would be a useful feature."
"The connection with Marketing Cloud should be improved."
"The community is very closed source. If you don't buy it, you won't be able to learn it."
"Pricing is a disadvantage because it is expensive."
"Multi-tenant infrastructure is a blessing and a curse."
"In terms of application performance, it could be a bit quicker."
"It is similar to ATG, but some features can be exchanged between the 2."
"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."
"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."
"Hybris is not currently using microservices."
"They could include additional types of payment implementations. Right now they are just providing CyberSourse."
"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."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the product search. There will be multiple criteria to search products and there will be a number of products in different categories. The question is how soon can I find the product which I'm looking for. The search can be improved."
"The stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies."
"The WCS management or content management is not that great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think price-wise, it's a little bit expensive. It can be made cheaper for smaller businesses. I understand that for larger businesses, it can be a payable amount. But for medium to smaller, it is kind of costly, and it might be difficult for them to pay."
"There are no significant upfront license costs."
"Initially when we installed Salesforce, we thought that it was a bit pricey, but I think for the value that we're getting, it’s suitable."
"The licensing works on a per-user basis."
"The pricing is fairly reasonable."
"The product is expensive."
"The licensing of Salesforce Commerce Cloud is something that will depend on the customer's usability. For us as a company, we are in a position where we will be paying the premium for licensing. If we go to the customer who is seeking a B2C solution quickly, we will definitely look at the pricing when it comes to the user base and receive good discounts. Discount is something that depends on the volume and that is where we need to work on. It is a little sensitive market when it comes to licensing procurement. There are some good competitors."
"I give the price of the solution a three out of ten."
"The price is too high."
"The price is quite high."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive."
"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."
"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."
"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 product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."

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…
