Alderich Web Solutions worked great for us however when it came to diagnosing and fixing issues with the website we had to rely on the support with little ability for us to "get under the hood" and look at the issue for ourselves. After switching to Optimizely, having this …
Stibo STEP MDM was a powerhouse. It seems we could do anything we could dream up, but we also had an in-house IT dev team to support it. The cost was the reason we went with Optimizely Commerce Cloud. We did not explore HubSpot for this project.

Episerver was by far the most user friendly content platform allowing our business to easily manage the content with ease resulting in an overall productivity increase and time for the team to spend less time doing content management and more time managing the personalization …
I did evaluate other products in addition to Episerver. The other finalist was Magento, which has a very robust cart and a large market share. I have used that platform in the past and overall had been happy with it's performance. I ultimately selected Episerver because it was …
