Glossary
- SaaS (Hosted) Platform
- Platforms like Shopify or BigCommerce that are hosted in the cloud. They require no infrastructure maintenance and always have the latest features, though deep source-code customization is restricted.
- Open Source (OS)
- Systems like WooCommerce or Magento where the source code is freely available. They offer maximum customization flexibility since you host it on your own servers, but you are responsible for security and server maintenance.
- Enterprise / Custom Development
- Tailor-made solutions or enterprise packages built from the ground up for large-scale operations. Essential for complex ERP integrations or highly specific B2B features, but requires a significant initial investment.
- Cross-border E-Commerce
- Selling products online to consumers in different countries. Requires multi-language support, multi-currency checkout, international shipping integrations, and local tax compliance. Platforms like Shopify excel in this area.
- Headless Commerce
- An architecture that separates the front-end (UI) from the back-end (e-commerce logic), connecting them via APIs. It enables incredibly fast loading speeds and ultimate design freedom.
FAQ
- Q.Will I definitely succeed if I choose the recommended platform?
- The tool suggests the most suitable systems based on your inputs as a general tendency. When actually implementing it, a detailed fit & gap analysis is essential, such as whether your preferred payment gateways are supported or if it can integrate with your ERP/WMS. Please use this result as a starting point for your research.
- Q.Is it possible to migrate platforms later?
- While customer data, order history, and product data can be migrated, the effort and risk are significant because each platform has different data structures and password encryption methods. From an SEO perspective, URL structures will change, making 301 redirects mandatory. We strongly recommend choosing a system with your future growth in mind.
- Q.Can this diagnose platforms for B2B (Business-to-Business) e-commerce?
- It can provide a basic assessment, but B2B e-commerce has unique requirements such as customer-specific pricing, invoice payments, and quoting features. If the result highly scores 'Enterprise/Custom Development', please consider dedicated B2B platforms.
- Q.Is my budget and sales data saved on a server?
- No, it is not saved. This tool performs all calculations locally in your browser (via JavaScript). The sharing feature uses URL hashes (the part after #), so no data is sent to or stored on our servers. You can use it securely.
