"Always finding new ways to use Episerver "
What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Ease of use and scalability. We add a tremendous amount of content to our site because it is much faster than our previous CMS. Users / Page Views / Time on Site continue to increase each year. Personalization is a powerful feature and we are just starting to scratch the surface of Episerver's capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

We do not dislike anything about Episerver. When there is a problem, Episerver or our implementer are there to solve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Really great and stable product for both editors and developers!"
What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

I really like that it's a stable CMS that is easy to use for editors and easy and fun to develop for developers. It's very easy to customize anything you would like for a new sites and you can use the latest frameworks and technologies like Azure, .NET MVC etc which increase productivity. I've been developing EPiServer sites for 10 years+ and also tried a lot of other CMSs and I can honestly say that this is the best. Other CMSs maybe have a few more functions on the paper but does a crappy job on the core CMS parts. EPiServer CMS has focused on what you actually need as developer and editor and refined that to near perfection. It's easy to build a pretty nice site with EPiServer even for a junior developer and a pretty unskilled editor. But it's also possible to create a large enterprise site hosted in the cloud for 10 coutries. I like it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Community part. It wasn't EPiServer who built it to their defence. Skip this addon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
