Commerce Layer is a great choice, if you want to build a tailored system. The flexible API allows to build all kinds of applications around commerce, but you also need to deep dive a bit into the structure. If you want to set up a simple store and sell a few SKUs, you're probably rather a Shopify customer, but if you want to build great customer experiences and tailer the software to your business, Commerce Layer is a very good choice.
This platform is a pretty decent platform that has all the required facilities which makes it a good platform for the users. I would recommend this software to businesses because this is not too hefty in their pockets and this can be pretty affordable for many. Also, it works quite efficiently and effectively.
There are certain deprivations associated with Webgility. Some of them are that it does not answer phones or emails. I feel that the concept of Webgility is great, but at the same time, you have to know exactly what to do in order for the system to work properly, effectively, and efficiently.
In the beginning, I felt it was complicated software, so it took time to learn. Since then the experience has been smooth and good.
The new apps are great, but in our case, we built so specific functionalities around it that we built our own admin tool. Based on the complexity (especially for after sales processes), no off the shelf tool would have been able to do this.
The Commerce Layer data model is very flexible, which also creates a certain complexity. It's important to understand how the data model works and how relationships between them are built.
Real headless solution, fully SaaS. In comparison to all other solutions, Commerce Layer has an integrated order management which is lean, but very flexible. With all other solutions, we would have needed a separate OMS which would have increased both the complexity and the cost of the solution.
Webgility is an Omnichannel Retail Suite for businesses offering ease and control. They have a secure concept of several layers of safety for business processes integrated. The stock reporting can be used in real-time or in history, and for planning. There is a versatile interface or integration into API for eCommerce markets and POS that is rich and can be customized with ease. Webgility offers great customer service facilities with plenty of adaptable features. That is a big range of features that can be researched with competitors. We had Multiorders, Zoho Inventory, Quickbook Desktop Enterprise in consideration. We see Multiorders coming closest. They have a great integration in various channels for sale and enable management of all kinds of orders including shipping. There is a comfortable part for the management of inventories too. Then we see Zoho Inventory which is easy to set up and seemingly more usable and comfortable to administrate. In the third position, we compare QuickBooks Online as the closest competitor. This offers similar ease in all processes of accounting. Everything is all in one place and close to real-time. The differences are small. There are different targets for optimization that make the difference
Webgility does not accept and imports all types of transactions which sometimes gets annoying.
I just totally love the immediate and instant technical as well as customer support of Webgility which is always there to help us out at any sort of minor to major hiccup.
Webgility gives us the autonomy and the liberty to work in a form of the hosted environment.
Webgility has a very seamless integration which is far better than any other program we have worked with.
