  • IndustryRetail
  • Solution SAP CX

Challenge

Being a major retailer in the CIS region, the client was faced with significant limitations using their custom legacy PHP-based eCommerce solution. To stay competitive in the market and provide customers with a best-in-class shopping experience, they needed to use a proven platform.

It needed to be agile enough to support flexible pricing, marketing strategies, delivery optimization tools, proximity, and brand-specific landing pages. The client selected the award-winning SAP CX (Hybris) Commerce suite. The challenge was to develop a team of software developers that understood the SAP platform and were able to take advantage of the full capabilities. SAP Digital Business Services chose SaM Solutions to be the software development arm of the solution.
