Spryker Cloud Commerce OS vs. Zegashop

Spryker is very well suited (B2C and/or B2B) for big companies with complex and individual business models or also if your company needs a certain level of customization. Very good fit, if you need a scalable system. It is rather not the perfect fit for small companies or companies with very basic E-Commerce needs.

Since we moved from another website builder, we needed a site migration. The migration went great! Several important issues were resolved with Zegashop, both in terms of site speed, product layout, and filtering.

• Data Importers - Spryker is able to cope with large chunks of data ingest e.g. from PIM or ERP. Its integrated Middleware of handling this data.
• Scaling - Modern architecture makes it possible to scale flexible.
• Internationalization - Role our your shop with different assortments, pricing and products with out of the box features.
• Pricing - Spryker supports custom pricing out of the box (volume prices, gross/net prices, customer specific pricing).
• Order Management.

• High page load speed

• Content - content administration is not a strong part of Spryker, although it improved over the years. I still see room for improvement in the world of bigger CMS systems being able to also do "commerce".
• Backoffice-usability - for non-technical users the first few days, weeks and month[s] can be full of surprises. An extended documentation, or more intuitive handling on the backoffice could serve every party on Spryker.
• Off-the-shelf internationalization - Spryker right now comes with an initial data set in English and German, which is for a German based company already a pretty stable starting point. Extension on the base data for Europe-wide used countries would be very helpful - French, Italian, Polish, Russian, etc.

• Exporting reports and .CSV files can be a bit time consuming

Spryker's usability depends a lot on custom development. Therefore, I would like not to consider usability as something that comes with Spryker Cloud Commerce OS. Spryker Cloud Commerce OS; however, brings all the tools needed to design a solution with great usability.

Support suffered from Spryker Cloud Commerce OS's rapid growth. Contacts, department heads, and support systems changed frequently. Support processes as well as documentation are rather poor. One notices that they are putting more effort into the customers recently, but in the course of growth, there is still a lack of focus here. As a customer, I would like to see growth at a slower pace and a phase of stabilization.

If you compare Spryker with commerce solutions on the market, you will notice that the focus is not on the front end. Spryker assumes that the store is only one of many possible channels through which customers order today and in the future. To understand the differences, one must therefore take a look at Spryker's architecture. This is divided into the Spryker [Cloud] Commerce OS (the backend with all process-related components), the front-end modules for B2C and B2B, as well as the integration modules (middleware) and interfaces (Glue API).

We migrated to Zegashop, so our previous platform was not enough for us because we were spending a lot of money without having enough sales, the website was slow, we were losing customers, and Zegashop does not have these problems.

• Extending the reach and visibility of the brand through content and commerce.
• Increased customer satisfaction through better accessibility (self-service) and easy access to important product information (CAD data, technical documentation, etc.).
• Rapid deployment thanks to packaged business capabilities and clear development leads to fast ROI and low TCO.
