Many B2B e-commerce providers have adopted a multi-system approach. They offer a commerce only solution that exposes their lack of content features to drive sales. This missing capability is “solved” by integrating with a content solution, either as a partner or through acquisition. This is a checkbox solution only - it allows for the commerce provider to say they have the features on paper, when in reality their system doesn’t deliver it natively. A cobbled together, two system solution like this can’t deliver the core features and singular experience that a brand needs to drive their B2B strategy forward.
