    BetterCommerce can be a bit complicated to understand the scope of for an ecommerce brand, but the implementation is simple upon signing up. What really matters is the results that have came about in terms of conversions from customer engagement, orders, and also views of the product marketplace. I like that SEO is included and data is omnichannel meaning we can see all of our brand's sales channels for the most data driven decisions.

    Oracle CX Commerce (formerly Oracle Commerce Cloud) is very well suited for B2B commerce transactions. The wonderful thing about this software is its ability to regularly update on an automatic basis, and keep up with upgrades. Oracle CX Commerce provides my organization with greater flexibility and quick integration processes. I would recommend this to any organization trying to set up their own storefront.

    • It uses an effective algorithm to provide users with product recommendations based on other products they’ve previously viewed.
    • It comes with a decent support platform, where Oracle is attentive and provides help diagnosing issues that may arise within the environment.
    • Oracle CX Commerce comes with a developer tool known as the DCU Tool, which is very helpful when it comes to pushing changes from environment to environment. The DCU Tool is also a good resource to use for source control.

    • Customer experience - Oracle CX is already a leader and I bet they'll make it even better surpassing all expectations.
    • They've [been] the best eCommerce model solution for any kind of business at least for book publishing and logistics management - thus can't complain here either.

    The package of Sterling Order Management / Sterling Store / Sterling Call Center works very well and it supports the expansion to Geographies like US/EU/JP/China, some of hottest markets for e-commerce.

    Oracle Commerce Cloud is definitely not my favorite platform to use, however our company has gotten very comfortable with the way our website operates using it so I do not see us switching to a different product any time soon. Over time, I’ve grown to have a love/hate relationship with this product, but as I learn more about what it offers I come to appreciate its functionality more

    We selected BetterCommerce for its 100% API-first philosophy. We were able to integrate it without changing our stack and customize our online store.

    The upgrade cycle of OCC and the subscription model ensure we are always on the latest and greatest version of the platform. The responsive design makes it easier for small departments to provide an optimum mobile experience. The stability of the platform is far superior to our on-prem solution.
