SoftwareReviews, a leading source for insights on the software provider landscape, has published its 2022 B2B and B2C eCommerce Platforms Data Quadrant. According to user data, eight providers in the B2B and B2C spaces are the top options for managing online sales, with two providers ranking in both the B2B and B2C categories.

eCommerce platforms help businesses sell online and make it possible to manage inventory, add or remove products, manage shipping, and complete all other operations required to manage a website and fulfill online orders. This technology has become especially critical for business as the growth of new online businesses during the pandemic has made the retail landscape increasingly competitive.
With the shift to online commerce, business owners and marketers are spending more on advertising but often experiencing a lack of success in their campaigns. By adopting the right B2B or B2C eCommerce platform, businesses can integrate multi-channel marketing communications to help increase the overall customers’ lifetime value in today’s market.
“The further proliferation of online shopping, spurred by the pandemic, has provided the impetus for accelerated digital transformation, making eCommerce solutions an increasingly essential tool,” says Austin Wagar, eCommerce category analyst and research analyst at Info-Tech Research Group. “eCommerce software streamlines the intricacies of online stores, shouldering tasks integral to an organization.
