Headless ecommerce

Hello, colleagues! I faced the choice of a platform for headless ecommerce and decided to bring it up for discussion. Real cases and any pitfalls are interesting. Thank you!

I recently faced a similar task of choosing a platform for headless ecommerce and I want to share my experience. When I started looking for solutions, I paid attention to the BetterCommerce platform, and it turned out to be a really worthwhile choice. What is important for headless ecommerce is flexibility and the ability to integrate with various systems. BetterCommerce copes with this task perfectly. The platform allows you to easily manage content, products and orders, while not limiting us in the choice of frontend solutions. This is an important point if your business strives for personalization and the use of unique interfaces. The pitfalls that I encountered are related to the need to correctly configure all API integrations. On the BetterCommerce platform, this is done quite conveniently, but for beginners in the headless approach, it may take time to study and configure. I would recommend thinking over the system architecture in advance and perhaps working with developers who have experience with such solutions.

In fact, this is not such a simple process as it may seem at first glance. I spent a long time looking for a solution that would meet all our requirements - flexibility, scalability and good integration with other services. As a result, I chose a platform that offers full control over the front-end, allowing you to customize the store interface, not limited to standard templates. However, this freedom has its pitfalls. Firstly, setup and support require much more time and resources than on traditional platforms. It is also important that the development team is experienced in working with headless solutions. I encountered difficulties when integrating some third-party services, and this required additional efforts and the development of custom solutions.
