We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I haven't faced any issues with the product's stability.""Has all the modules needed for an order management solution.""It is a very mature product. It has a lot of features. It can also be very easily customized in order to reach goals or features that are not available, but mainly the fact that it's a very mature platform with all major features that are normally required by the clients is most valuable.""The most valuable solution is that it allows you to adapt it according to the customer's needs."

"We like that this solution gives our B2B clients a lot of functionality straight 'out of the box', meaning that they don't need to carry out a lot of configuration to be able to use it.""If you have a client and they want to have an e-commerce project that is based on solid principles, you don't need too much time to develop it.""Hybris offers a platform designed for speed.""The tool supports multiple currencies.""It's the best tool on the market and is a complete e-commerce system for product management. For instance, if the customer has a log enterprise level product, they can manage it here.""I chose this out-of-box E-Commerce solution because it helps you start up your E-Commerce business in a very good amount of time since Hybris already provides you the end-to-end flow with minimum customization. You can quickly go live with the customer.""The simple steps for configuring your checkout processes, as well as the promotional engine, are the most valuable features of this solution.""SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."

Cons
"The tool has a really rigid structure, so it is not something that has the simplicity to adapt to newer environments in a fast manner.""The product catalog is an area that needs improvement.""Lacks option to purchase individual modules.""Another area of improvement is the user-friendliness of the back office stuff. This issue is still valid, and it is still a problem, but I know they are currently working on it."

More HCL Digital Commerce Cons →

"The stack needs to be improved; they need to start using more new technologies.""Like every other SAP solution, it is very heavy. Also, the transition to the cloud is not very smooth because it is not really a SaaS solution. The upgrades are also not as smooth as you would expect from a complete cloud solution. It should have a product recommendation feature as well as a promotional feature. It should also have more personalizations.""The WCS management or content management is not that great.""The learning curve is high.""They have just started to work with the cloud, but they only support Microsoft Azure.""In terms of what could be improved, I would say the product search. There will be multiple criteria to search products and there will be a number of products in different categories. The question is how soon can I find the product which I'm looking for. The search can be improved.""We would like to be able to easily add functionality to the CMS, such as instant messaging. This would make is much more usable, especially in B2C scenarios.""Hybris is not currently using microservices."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:Has all the modules needed for an order management solution.
    Top Answer:Licensing costs are quite high compared to other e-commerce platforms, probably because they also have B2B and B2C solutions which are very good and they also offer good tech support.

    Reviews from Real Users

    PeerSpot user Rakesh Y., Senior SAP Hybris Consultant at Freelance, says, “SAP Hybris Commerce has many valuable features. It will provide you with the homepage, the search pages, the list pages, the product detail pages, the cart pages, and the checkouts. Furthermore you can use it to do a presentation for the business. With minimum customizing you can see the product, catalog, the prices with the payment gateway division and just go live. This is a very powerful product in that you can have single or multiple countries managed by a single Hybris solution.”

    A SAP Hybris Consultant at a tech services company explains that the solution is “Feature-rich, secure, quick to develop projects, and the community support is helpful. For e-commerce projects, it has all of the core features so you don't need to develop a lot of things from scratch. If you have a client and they want to have an e-commerce project that is based on solid principles, you don't need too much time to develop it. SAP provides all of the e-commerce features and it is secure.”

    A Head of Business Consulting at a program development consultancy mentions, "Its dashboards, business features, and user-friendliness of a lot of business interfaces are valuable. We work on B2B projects, and it is the most efficient software solution for B2B. The B2B accelerator is very much appreciated by our customers because it has some use cases that are ready for production. For some projects, we proposed the SAP Hybris solution because it was sufficient for use cases related to product management and data quality. With other e-commerce platforms, we would have needed integration with another product information management software."
