How Distributors Using Infor SX.e and CSD Can Scale Faster with ROC Commerce
Distributors using Infor SX.e and CloudSuite Distribution (CSD) often face obstacles when scaling their ecommerce operations. The core challenge stems from the lack of flexibility and outdated capabilities in Infor’s built-in ecommerce solutions. This often leads to increased expenses for customizations and delays in rolling out new features, making it harder to grow and fulfill the growing expectations of B2B customers.
ROC Commerce offers a powerful B2B ecommerce platform solution to help distributors modernize their digital commerce while assuring seamless integration with Infor ERP systems. In this article, discover how ROC Commerce empowers users of Infor SX.e and CSD to accelerate online revenue growth, enhance customer experiences, and advance digital transformation initiatives.
The Challenge with Scaling Infor ERP Commerce Environments
The built-in ecommerce features from Infor aren’t flexible enough to keep up with evolving business needs or unique ways of working. This means distributors must often spend more money and time to customize their systems.
On top of that, these older systems make launching new features or responding to new business opportunities a slow process. All these hurdles add up, making it difficult for distributors to increase online sales, expand their business, and offer the modern ecommerce experiences expected today.
