Chose Elastic Path
As a system integrator here are my thoughts --
Elastic path is one of best ecommerce tools, which would fit any retailer/ telcos business needs. The software architecture is well thought through and it is built with open source tools, the Ecommerce application is easily …
We've also used Builderwire Ibos... EvolutionX provides much better support, way more features, and the overall customizability of our site is tremendously better.
Supplier data integration (Fusion), ease of use for administration, maintenance and development, and support from the EvolutionX Team. Also, to have the ability to have content on the site, make it easier for the customer to order. It is exceptionally reliable and the team …
We actually also have a BigCommerce account for a another division of our company. Both are great platforms with more capabilities than you can imagine. I appreciate / become frustrated with things from both platforms & truthfully would say they are pretty equal. - 8.5/10 …
EvolutionX is much easier to use, and all features that it offers are already part of UI. Those other platforms require you to first know about some feature in order that you even have idea to use them. Then if you are using them for the first time there is a learning curve and …
Evolution X feels better built specifically for our industry and helps to provide relevant supplier catalogues, it also opens us up to dialogue with new suppliers and partnerships to form around this. For instance our ACCO account has grown by x8 since we started adding their …
I have used both, but have used them for different features. I have only positive things to say about both. EvolutionX has been there to help us learn the best ways to sell our products and make our site as useful for our customers as possible. We enjoy using both.
I have experience on Infor Storefront, EvolutionX is heads and tails above them!
Storefront does not allow for much customization to be done internally and is very vanilla out of the box program. Requires searching tools which EvolutionX has.
They are affordable, and overall, just really covered all the criteria of what my organization was looking for at the time and even to this day. They are also super helpful with their monthly meeting times where they are interested and show support in helping us succeed and …
EvolutionX is great at getting a large catalog online in a hurry. Though the editing may take some time, the pull is a great feature to get you started. EvolutionX will give you the most professional looking site right out of the gate vs the competitors we have viewed. The person assigned to your account is a nice benefit and are very helpful and efficient this is an even bigger plus for those with no coding experience. EvolutionX may not be the best option for a small business, though the website may make you look like the big dogs it doesn't function as well yet. The cost of the service is high compared to what the customer gets from it after the initial set up and is the main reason why this isnt the best solution for a small business. It would be nice to see the price to be able to scale down or up in price with how well the site is doing after a set amount of time.

External feeds for catalog data load are available.

EvoX is a very user friendly platform, both for admin and customers. On the admin side, there are lots of KBs and videos to watch to learn more on the site and features of it. On the customer side, the features provided make it very easy for our customers. Quicklists are a feature we push to customers to make their ordering experience as easy as possible. B2B has a priority to make ordering as easy as possible, our customers are busy and need to place their orders quickly. If the customer cannot do that with your company, they will find one that does do that for them
ECI has always provided good support for us on EvoX. Weather it is via monthly conversations to the intercom system, EvoX is quick to respond and look into the issue. Our sales reps are also a huge support for us to contact on any major issues that may come up
As a system integrator here are my thoughts -- Elastic path is one of best ecommerce tools, which would fit any retailer/ telcos business needs. The software architecture is well thought through and it is built with open source tools, the Ecommerce application is easily extensible and it enables clients to get there E-commerce application in less time. We have evaluated other products like ATG ecommerce, WCS, Magento. Elastic path is definitely a briliant ecommerce product which I would recommend to any clients.

Massive time savings for our AR Department as customers can now self-generate account statements, see past invoices, pay balances, etc.
Huge improvement for in-store customer service as our floor associates and reps can reference the website inventory to provide quick assistance to customers on their mobile devices.
Increased sales & revenue thanks to broader reach- most of our walk-in customers now start their shopping journey on our website to identify product availability and pricing.
