What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Out of the box, Episerver offers features that other platforms don't offer by default such as unlimited CMS editors, plug and play e-commerce, content targeting, on-page editing, unification of content and commerce, and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

The lack of a multi-tier content staging feature which controls deployment for content, assets, and code. This would be a really great feature to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Commerce Connect:

Episerver is not like other CMS platforms which I have experienced and I know a lot of them. They have been extremely thoughtful about how the system interacts with the editors and how that impacts the end users. If you haven't seen a demo of this software, I'd highly recommend it.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Commerce Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Content editing and speed to market was a big problem for us. Now with Episerver, our marketing team can see the what their content will look like realtime and also what it will look under different circumstances e.g. mobile, personas, etc. This has allow us to create a vast amount of additional content in substantially less time.

What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

I really like that it's a stable CMS that is easy to use for editors and easy and fun to develop for developers. It's very easy to customize anything you would like for a new sites and you can use the latest frameworks and technologies like Azure, .NET MVC etc which increase productivity. I've been developing EPiServer sites for 10 years+ and also tried a lot of other CMSs and I can honestly say that this is the best. Other CMSs maybe have a few more functions on the paper but does a crappy job on the core CMS parts. EPiServer CMS has focused on what you actually need as developer and editor and refined that to near perfection. It's easy to build a pretty nice site with EPiServer even for a junior developer and a pretty unskilled editor. But it's also possible to create a large enterprise site hosted in the cloud for 10 coutries. I like it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Community part. It wasn't EPiServer who built it to their defence. Skip this addon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Commerce Connect:

Buy it, use it!

Really great enterprise search solution with EPiServer Find btw. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Commerce Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

EPiServer is a great tool whether you use it to build a fancy site to sell porsches like www.porsche.se or build a government site like www.regeringen.se. It's also a great tool for exposting internal systems like customer portals since it is easy to integrate vs basically any system using standard methods in .NET. The EPiServer Find enterprise search solution makes it easy to create a user friendly search solution for any type of information from any system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
