Business benefits | commercetools | Monolith platforms |
---|---|---|
Full control | ||
Brands look and feel unique and differentiate from their competitors. | Create rich, differentiated customer experiences in the frontend. | Designs appear homogoneous and interchangeable. |
Best-of-breed | ||
Compose a customized tech stack from a large ecosystem of thoroughly vetted partners. | Build and customize by choosing the best components. Don’t like a feature? Then replace it with ease. | All-in-one packages mean being stuck with features that aren't suitable or relevant. |
Fast time-to-market | ||
IT teams can support new business ideas and improvements with agility. | Modify the customer journey in an hour, release a new promotion in a day or add a new channel in a week. | Adapting and innovating quickly is difficult with an inflexible platform. |
Lower costs | ||
No infrastructure maintenance costs, and agile releases mean always being up to date with the latest features. | Say goodbye to expensive upgrades and replatforming. | Expensive, disruptive and risky upgrades are the norm. |
Zero risks | ||
Try out different templates and experiences, without slowing down time to market. | Experiment endlessly without risking uptime. | Rapid iteration risks downtime, broken customer experiences and lost revenue. |
High-performance scalability | ||
No downtime or glitches during traffic spikes like Black Friday or the winter holiday season. | Rock-solid performance and scalability empowering growth plans. | Inherent limitations make it difficult to offer auto-scaling and reliability. |
No vendor lock-in | ||
Easily change components, such as PIM, CMS or payments, according to business needs. | Control your digital destiny and swap out vendors easily. | Restricted options for third-party solutions. |
Turn every touchpoint into a sales channel | ||
Adding different touchpoints, from chatbots to smart appliances, is simple. | Enable all of today's channels...and tomorrow's. | Extremely difficult to have more than one version of an application deployed at one time. |
