# What's the highest-rated Broadleaf Commerce Consulting for open-source e-commerce implementations with minimal customization?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hey G2, I've been comparing which <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/broadleaf-commerce-consulting">Broadleaf Commerce Consulting</a> partners favor lean, close-to-core implementations. Star ratings in this category come from almost no review volume, so a rating here is not a meaningful signal yet.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/e-point/reviews"><strong>e-point</strong></a><strong>:</strong> Focuses on practical, business-challenge-driven builds rather than heavy custom platforms, which fits a minimal-customization brief in principle, though not proven on Broadleaf specifically.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/credera/reviews"><strong>Credera</strong></a><strong>:</strong> A large consultancy with the technical range to configure rather than customize, though there is no review evidence yet either way for a Broadleaf engagement.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">If you kept your Broadleaf build close to the open-source core, which partner respected that discipline, and did staying lean pay off at upgrade time?</p>

&lt;p&gt;Staying close to the core can pay off later when upgrades arrive, so I’d ask partners how they distinguish necessary customization from something configuration can already solve. That decision discipline may be more revealing than the initial build itself. Did keeping customization minimal noticeably reduce upgrade or maintenance effort later?&lt;/p&gt;
