EvolutionX vs. Zoho Commerce

EvolutionX is great at getting a large catalog online in a hurry. Though the editing may take some time, the pull is a great feature to get you started. EvolutionX will give you the most professional looking site right out of the gate vs the competitors we have viewed. The person assigned to your account is a nice benefit and are very helpful and efficient this is an even bigger plus for those with no coding experience. EvolutionX may not be the best option for a small business, though the website may make you look like the big dogs it doesn't function as well yet. The cost of the service is high compared to what the customer gets from it after the initial set up and is the main reason why this isnt the best solution for a small business. It would be nice to see the price to be able to scale down or up in price with how well the site is doing after a set amount of time.

Zoho Commerce is not a viable platform for and online store for smaller companies who do not have a large amount of products to sell - the amount of effort that was required for initial set up would be quite vast and possibly not quite worth the effort. It is however GREAT for larger companies that have a large amount of products to sell and desire a low maintenance method of selling products online, even if the products are made to order.

• Very easy to onboard products
• Pricing updates are easy due to bulk editing (export to excel -> import back to EvoX)
• It's easy to run promotions / sales with just a few clicks
• SEO options with ready to grab site map

• Inventory solution
• Financial management
• HRMS
• Order fulfillment

• On the backend, it would be nice to be able to COPY a similar sku to edit and make its own - creating items takes too long
• The option for drop downs for different colors / sizes / etc. could be nice
• The ability to export pricing where you can see the cost too would be nice

Incentivized

• Loading time of apps is more after having good internet
• Lower customisation and highly costly customisation on inventory dashboard
• Support response is inconsistent
• Complex setup of Zoho in company ecosystems without consultants it will be very hard to setup

It is a good platform with good customizable features for our customers.

EvoX is a very user friendly platform, both for admin and customers. On the admin side, there are lots of KBs and videos to watch to learn more on the site and features of it. On the customer side, the features provided make it very easy for our customers. Quicklists are a feature we push to customers to make their ordering experience as easy as possible. B2B has a priority to make ordering as easy as possible, our customers are busy and need to place their orders quickly. If the customer cannot do that with your company, they will find one that does do that for them

As I am user of Zoho Commerce and having great experiences with it, giving 8 because they need to improve lot because as in market lot of expensive software are presents like SAP and Oracles but that is cheaper than that with similar feature.

ECI has always provided good support for us on EvoX. Weather it is via monthly conversations to the intercom system, EvoX is quick to respond and look into the issue. Our sales reps are also a huge support for us to contact on any major issues that may come up

In-person training was not an option for us.

Hard to remember specifics, but I think it was executed at a level where we were satisfied.

This project took some time for us to complete. Some of it was on our end with data cleanup, but overall I thought it went well.

Evolution X feels better built specifically for our industry and helps to provide relevant supplier catalogues, it also opens us up to dialogue with new suppliers and partnerships to form around this. For instance our ACCO account has grown by x8 since we started adding their catalogue by Fusion Data via EVOX. PrestaShop is all added by spreadsheet and there is no pre-populated catalogue ready to add which means it relies on our in-house capabilities or the supplier to provide feeds to import which not many of them have

Lower cost than these platform with similar features. Also easy to understand not really tough like Oracle and SAP support system is better than these company

10/10 is a hard rating for me to give, but I have been impressed with the scalability
