It allows to cover lot's of different use cases especially if you have different kind of sells > > **Cons**: Commercetools is very customizable, it could exist different way of doing the same things, and it could be tricky to find the right one. It's better to work with a partner than to try to do everything by yourself > > The experience is very nice, and the customer sucess team is here to help you ----- ### "Fast and flexible: Stable and scalable." — 4.0/5 > **Charlie** | *12 January 2024* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love the stability and flexibility of the commercetools' platform. There are rarely business needs that the platform cannot meet. The APIs are stable and fast allowing us to build world-class shopping experiences for our customers. There is a robust messaging system that integrates with standard event buses which allow our team to integrate with the best third-party products we have. The customer success team is easily reachable and thoroughly answers our questions. A team of four developers can manage a single headless ecommerce site using commercetools. It is a great platform for a growing company. > > **Cons**: We have issues with running some types of promotions and discounts within commercetools. We've also had trouble looking to migrate to a different identification platform. The Merchant Center dashboard is slow and buggy which makes the administrative experience difficult and the company does not view open source as the future of software, which makes it difficult to report bugs and makes our team wary of the company's future. > > Overall, our experience with commercetools is great. They provide the support we need and have great API documentation. Their services are fast and robust and provide the flexibility needed to integrate with third-party platforms. We trust their platform and they are best in the headless ecommerce space. ----- ### "An Commerce tool engine" — 3.0/5 > **Charlotte** | *27 November 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its very flexible to create and store the information we need > > **Cons**: We have so many double fields - to be able to support the different brand site. So the new fields for market per store - is crusual for us to be able to ad new stores that are in the roadmap for 2024. > > Like that its possible to communicate with API - so that we can use different more user friendly custom built tools in the back end to update product, prices and campign in the future. ----- ### "Reliable partner, stable, high-performance engine" — 5.0/5 > **Thomas** | *28 November 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Provides the most important e-commerce features headless and gets extended with more practical features every quarter. In addition to the standard e-commerce functions, the discount engine or rule engine offers many options to support various campaigns. > > **Cons**: Both the search in the Commercetools backend and the product search for the frontend don't work really well. According to the roadmap, the search should be significantly improved and future. > > The software is very stable and performant and we have not had any failures or any bugs in the past few years. The platform development process is therefore very good and Commercetools is a reliable partner. The platform is constantly being developed with new features, which are presented in a quarterly meeting. ----- ### "Good engine for headless ecommerce" — 4.0/5 > **Tomasz** | *30 November 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We don't need to care anymore for hosting, performance, database or upscaling. > > **Cons**: Lot of customizations we had to prepare on our own. > > The SAAS solution as main engine for shop is for sure much different approach than self hosted monolith. In general switching to MACH helped us to organize teams responsibilities. Selecting CommerceTools as main engine was good decision, and we still discover new ways of using it. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/112302/commercetools?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/112302/commercetools) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
