NEW YORK and SAUSALITO, Calif., Jan. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Sitecore®, the global leader in experience management software, today announced Sitecore Experience Commerce 9 at NRF 2018: Retail's Big Show. The latest version of Sitecore's commerce solution is the only cloud-enabled platform that natively integrates content and commerce so brands can fully personalize and individualize the end-to-end shopping experience before, during, and after the transaction.
According to recent research, up to 86 percent of customers see personalization as a critical factor when making a purchase, yet a third of brands admit they lack the tools and skills needed to properly provide the experience customers desire. Tracking ahead of industry trends, Sitecore completely modernized its commerce platform to blend content, commerce, and contextual intelligence as well as introduced easier-to-use, faster business tools unified in one view.
"Experience Commerce 9 is further evidence of our commitment to create the best shopping experience for consumers and boost ROI for brands," said Mark Frost, Sitecore Chief Executive Officer. "Because we are the only platform that continuously learns from the customer journey across all touch points, we are uniquely positioned to turn every interaction into a relevant experience and help brands build lifelong relationships with their customers."
As a highly extensible platform built on the latest ASP.NET Core 2.0 technology, Sitecore Experience Commerce 9 delivers business opportunity for Sitecore partners and developers, who can extend functionality, build their own plug-ins, or leverage third-party plug-ins for added customer benefit. Other notable features include:
"Many brands are challenged with content and commerce platforms that are disconnected and, consequently, are denied the rich customer insights that drive personalization," said Jon Panella, GVP, Global Commerce Strategy at SapientRazorfish, a Sitecore Platinum Solution Partner with over nine years of Sitecore experience and more than 150 Sitecore implementations. "These disconnects result in a disjointed, impersonal customer experience. The consistently innovative, integrated solutions from Sitecore allow us to help our clients deliver truly personalized experiences throughout the purchase cycle, regardless of channel."
