MUNICH (Germany), April 28, 2022 – commercetools, the leader in digital commerce and inventor of headless commerce, has been named a “Leader” in Business-to-Business (B2B) commerce in The Forrester Wave™: B2B Commerce Solutions, Q2 2022 report.

commercetools received the highest scores possible in 10 criteria, including product vision, performance, and execution roadmap. The Forrester report also recognized commercetools for its strength in architecture, front-end management, and extensibility and integration. The research firm described commercetools as a “fit for businesses with a clear and innovative digital strategy enabled by a cloud-native technology strategy and an unapologetically modern development team.” 

As the leading product portfolio for next-generation B2B and Business-to-Consumer (B2C) commerce, commercetools uses MACH (Microservices, API, Cloud-Native and Headless)-based technology to enable customers to deliver best-in-class commerce experiences across touchpoints.

“

Today’s B2B companies are increasingly requiring similar capabilities from their commerce software than those of their more consumer-focused counterparts. As these B2B companies seek to provide just as outstanding customer experiences as the leading B2C brands, they need the flexibility to adapt to new business models and the scalability to grow their digital businesses. At commercetools, we enable this level of flexibility and scalability globally by providing robust and advanced business functionalities through our MACH-based technology. We believe the recognition from Forrester is a testament to the impact commercetools has in enabling companies to overcome the shortcomings of outdated, monolithic software, and making B2B, as well as B2C, companies’ commerce demands possible.
