Disadvantages of the Comarch e-Shop platform

1. Limited flexibility in personalization

Comarch e-Shop offers ready-made templates, but their customization is severely limited. The lack of full access to the source code can be a problem for companies looking to implement advanced visual and functional changes.

2. Tight integration with ERP – limited freedom

The platform is optimized for interoperability with Comarch ERP systems, which means that companies using other solutions will encounter difficulties with data integration and migration.

3. Implementation and maintenance costs

Comarch e-Shop requires a subscription and additional fees for extended functionalities and integrations. Compared to some competing platforms, this may generate higher costs, especially for small businesses.

4. Less popularity in the e-commerce market

Compared to industry leaders such as Shoper, IdoSell or PrestaShop, Comarch e-Sklep has a much smaller user base, which results from the obvious dedication of the solution to companies with Comarch ERP.

5. Limited support for international sales

Although the platform allows you to sell in different currencies, it does not offer such extensive features for international trade as other solutions, such as IdoSell or Magento2.

6. Learning Curve

Due to its close connection with ERP systems, users who are inexperienced with Comarch solutions may require additional training or technical support to fully utilize the platform's potential.

7. Lack of an extensive user community

Popular e-commerce platforms have large communities of developers and sellers who share their knowledge. Comarch e-Sklep, as a more niche solution, lacks such a broad ecosystem of community support.

8. An online store will never be a priority for a company.

Whether one likes it or not, for a company like COMARCH, the key and strategic product will always be the company's management system, which they have been developing for years (Comarch XL or Comarch Optima). This means that any other system, whether a B2C/B2B store or otherwise, will always be a secondary consideration. This applies to both investment and development, as well as a simple focus on functionality.

Who is Comarch e-Shop for?

Comarch e-Shop platform is designed primarily for companies already using Comarch ERP systems and looking to automate their online sales. Thanks to integration with Comarch accounting and warehouse systems, entrepreneurs can easily manage inventory, orders, and accounting documents without the need for additional integration investments. Comarch e-Shop is ideal for industries where automating sales, logistics, and customer service processes is crucial. B2B companies can take advantage of dedicated features such as price negotiations, individual terms for contractors, and handling large orders. However, the platform is not ideal for small or medium-sized businesses just beginning their digital journey. It is also absolutely not a system for companies not using Comarch ERP systems. In such cases, more flexible SaaS solutions, such as the IdoSell e-commerce platform, may be a better choice.

To summarize, Comarch e-Sklep is an optional solution for companies that have Comarch ERP and want to streamline their online sales processes by eliminating the need for manual data management and synchronization between systems.
