Is composable commerce the best choice for your organization?

Setting up a disconnected back-end and front-end also means more work than implementing a traditional platform. The advantage that developers can configure their front-end entirely as they wish, also means that they will spend more time integrating all those separate components and APIs. Not every organization is ready for that.

An organization that still largely leans on outdated legacy systems, and is not set up for agile working, may be better off investing in getting its digital transformation up to speed first. For others, it's simply not worth the investment of time and financial resources. After all, an organization that sells exclusively through a single channel doesn't need a platform that facilitates rapid and flexible front-end customization.

To assess whether a composable headless commerce platform is the right choice for your organisation, we have compiled a checklist of common goals. The more questions you can answer with "Yes!", the more likely it is that headless is also the best choice for your organisation.

• We are planning to redesign our website or webshop.

• We are considering the purchase of a new content management system (CMS).

• We want more flexibility at the front end of our e-commerce platform.

• We experience our current e-commerce platform as an increasing limitation in our customer contact.

• We offer our products or services through more and more different channels.

• We want to start selling our products directly to consumers (Direct 2 Consumer).

• We are constantly looking for new opportunities to offer the customer something extra.

• We want to continuously offer new content via as many channels as possible.

• We want to offer our customers a unique brand experience.

• We want to personalise communication with our customers as much as possible.

• We are going international and are looking for a multilingual solution for our platform.

Get the most out of composable commerce

An effortless purchase in 2022 is a basic requirement for the rapidly more demanding consumer. They increasingly expect their entire customer journey towards the purchase to be filled with practical, inspiring and valuable intermediate stops. Ambitious e-commerce players see the need to offer an omnichannel customer experience behind the rapid rise of things like social commerce, voice commerce, augmented and virtual reality and artificial intelligence. A complete buying experience that they can continuously improve and enrich.
