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.

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.

They could include additional types of payment implementations. Right now they are just providing CyberSourse.

They have just started to work with the cloud, but they only support Microsoft Azure.

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.

It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento.

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.

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.

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.
