We are migrating off Magento and over to Kibo eCommerce to help manage our B2B digital functionality. We had 3 major concerns that led us to Kibo... the overly complicated pricing structure, an ERP that does not have prebuilt integrations, and a fairly unique distributed inventory model. Kibo eCommerce was able to manage each of these with out of the box functionality.
  • Complicated Pricing structures
  • Buy online Pick Up In-Store with transfer capabilities
  • Customer Service
  • Microservices / API Intergrations
  • Prebuilt Integration - There is not currently a large number of preexisting integrations, but custom integrations are fairly quick
  • Time to Deploy - Don't get me wrong, We have deployed in the timeline we expected, but if you are trying to get something off the ground fast, Kibo might not be right for you. It is a robust platform that take some time to get up and running.
  • Complicated Shipping - if you have a complicated shipped process, you might want to look for a tool to help, Kibo does not have very robust out of the box shipping capabilities.
If you are a small company that is looking to start your ecommerce journey, Kibo might not be right for you. But if you are a B2C or B2B company looking to expand or grow your current ecommerce functionality or sales, you should consider Kibo. Kibo is like every platform, there are things it does very well and areas that still needs to grow. So strongly consider your top 5 needs and see if Kibo can solve those problems.

  • When we launch in the coming months we will be able to serve 100% of our customer using a digital tool.
  • 90% of our digital needs were out of the box functionality in Kibo
  • Only problem we have had was around Manufacturer surcharges, which was not part of our 2019 roadmap...Thanks 2020! I hate surcharges...
We had a very strong list of products we were considering. And all had their own strengths. But the two things that lead us to choose Kibo over all of these other platforms was the pricing capabilities in Kibo, their ability to manage distributed inventory, and the powerful buy online pickup in store functionality.

We use the Kibo eCommerce platform - formerly Mozu - to power our two DTC websites and two B2B websites, along with several international content sites and web-based tools for partners, both domestic and international. We have used the inherent flexibility of the platform to support our particular business rules and use-cases.
  • API-first architecture
  • Flexibility around roll-your-own business logic
  • Promotions engine handles our needs.
  • OOTB integrations are plentiful.
  • Documentation can be old.
  • API documentation needs to include sample code, specifying required data/fields.
  • Tier-1 support is slow to review tickets and can't help with technical issues.
The platform has flexibility at its core and we have made full use of that capability. Even if Kibo [eCommerce] hasn't been ready to provide features and functions we need, we have the opportunity to build them ourselves. The platform started as Mozu and while it was relatively well-developed for DTC, it lacked a lot of basic B2B functionality. As a result, when we were ready to move into that arena, we built a lot for ourselves (including a multi-level account system and a tool to manage it). Keep in mind, too, that Kibo eCommerce is part of a larger suite of tools. The company has purchased a mobile Point-of-Sale system, Baynote, Certona, Monetate, and an OMS. If you need a full-scale solution, they can offer a lot. As I mentioned previously, their support and documentation need shoring up. They're not terrible, but they hinder (rather than help) when it comes to fulfilling the platform's promise of letting the customers be self-service in building out their capabilities.

  • We've been able to scale out and up much quicker than we were able to do with our custom, in-house solution.
We had a custom, in-house ecommerce website before moving to Kibo. It was brittle, slow, and wasn't going to scale nearly well enough or fast enough to keep up with our requirements.
