Customization supports complex needs, though speed challenges persist
We don't use the reporting tools from Adobe Commerce as we have our own reporting infrastructure. Adobe Commerce can be complex in terms of ease of use, as it's such a large platform. From the development side, you can customize everything, but that does require substantial resources. When working on Adobe Commerce, I would want Adobe Commerce specialist developers. Although it's all built in PHP, and there are many PHP developers, I would want Adobe Commerce specialist developers working on it because they have knowledge about what to customize and more importantly, what's best not to touch. There are always site speed issues with Adobe Commerce. It seems to be an ongoing issue with performance. When comparing it to Shopify, you don't tend to need to worry about that, but with Adobe Commerce, it remains an ongoing issue. Additionally, there are all the upgrades, which can be quite painful, including the regular patches, both on the open-source and licensed version, on-premises. The initial setup for migrating to Adobe Commerce from another e-commerce platform is not straightforward; it's a very big job. The pricing for Adobe Commerce varies dramatically. Quite often, you see their list prices and then you are able to negotiate very hefty discounts. My understanding is that they're moving away from heavily discounting. Although our license where I am at the moment is heavily discounted, I'm hearing that they're trying to move away from that practice.

Composable commerce has supported complex ecommerce builds but documentation still needs work
The best features Spryker Systems offers, in my opinion, is that it is known as composable commerce. It contains numerous features and all the capabilities Spryker has. If you want to use it as a multiple system in a single place, that is the reason Spryker has much capability to achieve in the new AI era. If we want to use anything such as RabbitMQ or Docker, these are the capabilities Spryker has. I recommend Spryker for future clients as well. Over the last six months, I have found that Spryker Systems' composable commerce and integration capabilities have helped me because Spryker also has the capability with Docker. Using Docker, I can easily install Spryker on my system and utilize Spryker's multiple services such as queue services with a single click. I really appreciate that capability. Spryker Systems has positively impacted my organization as it is completely new to me. Right now, I am still expanding their features and exploring their capabilities. At an organizational level, I have found that multiple clients want a system that they can easily handle. Spryker is capable of doing it. At the organizational level, I have found many things that Spryker can easily achieve, and that is why Cognizant is ready to extend Spryker Systems' capabilities around their clients.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I think it is adequate because Adobe Commerce has many software options; with Adobe-related software, I can purchase every software from here and I can use it, so I think it is perfect for using software."
"The open-source PHP code allows our developers to customize pretty much anything on the platform, including allowing us to add some of the most complex shipping and inventory features for clients who have very specific, industry-related business specifications."
"The solution's valuable features are the presentation layout and ease of use. When we have new people joining the team, it is simple for them to get involved very quickly."
"As compared to platforms such as ATG or Commerce Cloud, its interface is easy to use. Magento also provides seamless administration for business users. You can also integrate an OMS to an extent. You don't need to have a dedicated OMS. You can leverage the out-of-the-box features of Magento, which is very valuable for startups. Other platforms, such as Commerce Cloud, don't have an OMS, and you have to have your own OMS solution."
"The platform provides an easy way to customize its features."
"The customization capabilities of Adobe Commerce are great."
"The most valuable feature in this solution I have found to be that I have the ability to find all the analytics that I need. It has very good integrations with social media platforms and other tools."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of integration with any upfront platform or CMS solution."
"Spryker Systems has had a positive impact on my company because we were able to generate a significant revenue increase in our e-commerce area."
"The platform's composability is valuable as it provides a variety of extensions to interface with other solutions."
"Over the last six months, I have found that Spryker Systems' composable commerce and integration capabilities have helped me because Spryker also has the capability with Docker."
 

Cons

"The solution’s performance could be improved."
"The analytics are good but there is room for improvement. There are some limitations due to new regulations causing customer data time delays."
"The solution takes a huge amount of time to complete the root cause analysis."
"Magento 2 is only three to four years old, so it is an evolving technology. In certain areas on the front there were some glitches. For example, you can't do certain kinds of filters on data and you have certain speed issues on category pages due to the way it was written within Magento. Those were a few minor tweaks where we, as a community, found that to be a necessary scope of improvement. But I think they are working on it and hopefully they can solve these issues earlier than later."
"The hardware requirements of the tool should be made better, as it is a solution that is very heavy on the servers, and it makes it expensive to host many servers."
"The industry has evolved, and the main focus is composable solutions because of which now SAP and Magento are forced to tackle various aspects of commerce, including commerce tools and pricing strategies, among other things."
"The product needs to improve its security. Also, they need to improve B2B features."
"The limited availability of experienced developers can make the product costly to maintain."
"Spryker Systems could be improved if we can reduce the complexity level."
"Spryker Systems is a good company with good customer support. However, there are also problems and setbacks from time to time."
"Spryker, even with its native features, often requires some development and configuration into the code, which is not straightforward in the beginning."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is cheaper than some of its competitors. However, the price depends on which country you are in. In some countries, such as Greece or some Southeastern European countries, the price for the client can be expensive."
"The price of the solution increased after Adobe acquired Magento. At this point, we know the price of Magento and SAP, and while they may have lower entry tickets, they are ultimately comparable."
"The cost of implementation is cheap compared to other solutions."
"The product offers an open-source version, which is free. There are licensing options for Adobe Commerce's cloud version."
"Many implementations were open-source. We also had a couple of enterprise-level implementations, but I didn't have visibility on the licensing cost."
"We transitioned from the platform's commercial license to the open-source version, which helped optimize costs without affecting our sales."
