Optimizely Commerce Connect Reviews & Product Details

Episerver is a complete offering, and their solution enables all aspects of digital transformation for a client. I appreciate the versatility in the product suite, which makes it appropriate for most business segments. The platform provides solutions for marketing automation, campaign management, digital commerce and content management just to mention a few. The fact that you can choose whether you want to run solutions in the cloud or on-premise makes the offering even more compelling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Episerver is a huge platform, and it is growing at a very fast pace, as a client or a vendor it is a challenge to keep up with new functionality or acquisitions to the product portfolio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and scalability. We add a tremendous amount of content to our site because it is much faster than our previous CMS. Users / Page Views / Time on Site continue to increase each year. Personalization is a powerful feature and we are just starting to scratch the surface of Episerver's capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We do not dislike anything about Episerver. When there is a problem, Episerver or our implementer are there to solve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of managing different locales all from the same platform and the fact we can use Episerver for both Commerce and CMS making easier track user journeys and personalise them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's catching up with more robust ecommerce solutions, but you can't expect the same level of integrations that other platforms have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Episerver provides a great framework to create a CMS that works the way your business works, without getting in the way. Developers can create the functionality your business needs without fighting against the CMS, and actually utilizing all the features that it provides. The only true .NET MVC enterprise platform.

Some of the way the application works with the database limits options for deploying new code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is pretty easy to use. I do not have a lot of HTML CSS skills and this makes it easy for me to manage the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is really slow. Even though I can update landing pages, it takes a bit longer than I would like. The page has to reload every time to drag something to the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Versatility of the software. Currently I am able to manage eCommerce, CMS processes, A/B website testing, and user performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can be non-intuitive regarding user-friendliness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We love that Episerver allows business users to easily manage content and that it integrates fairly easily with other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We see some opportunities to improve Cloud-based offering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

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 countries. I like it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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