Finding your perfect B2B eCommerce platform: Join our expert-led webinar with Chris Gee

What’s the best eCommerce platform?

As a B2B eCommerce agency, we hear this question all the time.

Our answer is always the same:

The best platform is the one that’s right for your business.

But with so many options (almost 70 and counting!) to choose from, finding the right fit can feel, at best, overwhelming.

Picking an eCommerce platform is an important decision for any business. But for B2B, it’s even more so!

Complex buyer journeys, unique pricing, and system integrations all demand a platform that fits your needs now and can grow with you. The wrong choice can lead to inefficiencies, limited growth, frustrated customers and higher costs.

To help clarify and simplify your decision-making process, we’re hosting an exclusive webinar with Chris Gee, an expert in B2B eCommerce platform selection.

Join Chris, who will show you how to cut through the noise and learn a proven framework for identifying which platform would be the best fit for your business.

Choosing the right eCommerce platform: A foundation for B2B growth

B2B businesses operate with unique demands that traditional B2C platforms often can’t address. For instance, B2B buyer journeys are typically more complex, with longer sales cycles, multiple decision-makers, and a greater emphasis on relationship-driven sales.

Pricing and order management also present challenges. B2B customers expect personalised pricing, tiered discounts, and flexible ordering options that reflect their specific agreements with suppliers.

Managing this level of complexity requires a platform that can support advanced pricing models and tailor order management processes to individual customer needs.

When the platform meets these needs, it simplifies workflows, enhances customer satisfaction, and drives business growth. Selecting a platform that doesn’t align with these demands can lead to operational bottlenecks, frustrated customers, and escalating costs.

Key considerations when evaluating eCommerce platforms

Choosing a B2B eCommerce platform requires looking beyond basic features to assess how well it supports your business’s unique needs. Here are some of the most important factors to consider:

• Scalability and customisation options: B2B businesses often need a platform that can grow with them and adapt to changing requirements. Look for platforms with flexible architecture and customisation options that allow for ongoing enhancements as your business expands.
• Integration capabilities: Integration with existing systems, such as ERP and CRM platforms, is an advantage you don’t want to overlook. A platform with strong integration capabilities will streamline processes and improve data accuracy across your systems, supporting a more unified and efficient operation.
• User experience: For all eCommerce, including B2B, an intuitive user experience for both internal teams and customers is important.
• Pricing models and total cost of ownership: Platforms vary widely in their pricing structures, from monthly fees to transaction-based pricing. Be sure to understand the total cost of ownership, including any hidden fees, to ensure it fits within your budget and aligns with your revenue model.
• Security and compliance: B2B transactions often involve sensitive information, so robust security measures and compliance with industry standards are non-negotiable. A platform that prioritises data security will protect both your business and your customers, reducing risk and maintaining trust.

Evaluating platforms with these criteria in mind helps ensure that the one you choose will support growth, efficiency, and a good experience for both your team and your customers.
