Ecwid allows you to have great results even if you are a novice.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Pros Clarity - there has been very little confusion and need to reach out to Customer Support for help Consistency - no big, crazy updates or changes have been made to the format of Ecwid during my time using it, so I know when I log in to preform my business tasks I can always locate what I need and accomplish what is at hand easily Simplicity - everything is so clear and straightforward. It's like e-commerce for dummies. Read full review 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. Read full review Cons Recurring billing - ability to bill subscription customers without having to go to my payment gateway Robust order management - very limited in managing orders, therefore I had to subscribe to a different software Expensive customization - if you want to customize anything, it is very expensive Read full review 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. Read full review Likelihood to Renew The value given by Ecwid is unmatched. When combined with the ease of use of the product, it is a no-brainer to continue to use the product. The only thing that could cause us to switch is if some feature we needed which is not available which is unlikely based on the feature list we reviewed when making the decision to go with them.
Read full review 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
Read full review Usability I gave a 9 instead of a 10 only because I haven't figured out a function or two. I believe it has less to do with Ecwid's overall usability and more to do with my own understanding and skill level, but regardless, it may also have something to do with the limits of Ecwid's functions.

Read full review Support Rating I have always received the support I need in a timely manner. I enjoy receiving emails every week on trending business topics and new suggestions. They often serve as a reminder for me to include new e-commerce tools into our strategy. And I've always had great experiences with reaching out to the support team with specific questions.
Read full review Implementation Rating Fast and simple implementation of Ecwid's solutions. Easy to learn and navigate
Read full review Alternatives Considered We sell a product that requires certain controls to sell and most of the companies we researched had specific policies preventing us from selling on their platform. We aren't selling anything dangerous, they are parts of ammunition (the shell casings) and not entire ammunition rounds. Most other vendors restrict the sales of firearms and ammunition, but even when just selling a part used to create ammunition, we were still restricted. I'm not really sure why they restrict sales of products like ours from different vendors. Ecwid had no such restrictions and were happy to confirm that for us.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Scalability Good scalability. I use the second plan and there are 2 more plans that I could use if I needed other features or services
Read full review Return on Investment We have not been able to measure the ROI as of yet, as we cannot get out of the gate with customization required. It can be implemented quickly for basic online stores. Once the system is configured, ROI will dramatically go up. Read full review We were able to drive sales for one of our clients up by 50% over the course of a 6 month window by revamping their online web store with Oracle ATG. Sharing data and communication improved greatly between legal/finance and marketing. Read full review ScreenShots Ecwid by Lightspeed Screenshots
