MIAMI, June 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- dotCMS, a leading open-source Java CMS, has unveiled together with their partner Dept, an API-first Commerce Experience Solution based on its NoCode-first Enterprise CMS combined with leading commerce engine commercetools and search and merchandising vendor Unbxd.
"We're extremely excited to bring this solution to the market. It will help B2B and B2C retailers to be successful and drive online revenues and conversion, without breaking the bank," said Stefan Schinkel, Enterprise Sales at dotCMS. "Our NoCode-first CMS combined with the competitive offerings of commercetools and Unbxd, gives brands the agility and speed they need to move away from monolithic solutions that take too long to implement and leave no room for innovation. We're pleased to have developed this solution with our partners."
The new Commerce Experience Solution takes into account the core capabilities of dotCMS along with the powerful features of commercetools and Unbxd that Dept has found to be most beneficial to customers. These features and capabilities include:
- NoCode Digital Marketing: Marketers and business users get the full dotCMS editing experience in a headless environment, including a set of NoCode tools to manage customer experiences across every channel and device.
- Native GraphQL Support: The dotCMS GraphQL support exposes the dotCMS content repository as GraphQL and provides an API that allows developers to query and return specific properties of content and shape the API response at call time.
- APIs and API Builder: Developer tooling to support a full range of REST actions including content pulls, content formatting, remote API calls, and content rendering.
- Commerce Platform: dotCMS's flexible APIs lets you engage with your customers via webshops, mobile apps, voice assistants, AR/VR applications, social networks, and others. Commercetools offer a catalogue of 300+ API endpoints for your commerce projects which you can consume á la carte. The modular architecture enables you to rapidly build new customized services for your customers, iterate quickly, and run new business models at a global scale.
- Merchant Center: The commercetools Merchant Center helps you handle your most critical data and processes while keeping up with changing market conditions. Its intuitive user interface lets you manage product data, orders, and customer data for all retail channels. Additional functions, such as configurable forms and batch processing, help you quickly and easily complete your daily tasks.
- PIM: commercetools has an advanced Product Information Management (PIM) already built in natively – no installation or integration required! Simply log into the web app and take control of your catalog data, add new attributes, bulk edit variants, and maintain all of your retail channels.
- Relevance: Unbxd's Machine Learning Site Search goes beyond traditional text-pattern matching and understands the intent behind each word in the query as it relates to your catalog. Thus, providing a highly relevant product discovery experience.
- Personalization: With the Unbxd's Machine Learning algorithms monitoring your shoppers' behavior on the site, each interaction is personalized based on their affinities.
- Built for Merchandisers: With easy-to-use merchandising features, your merchandisers are empowered to optimize Site Search without any IT intervention.
- Automated Correction & Visual Autosuggest: The Unbxd engine includes Natural Language Processing capabilities for automated spell correction and stemming issues. Also, the Visual Guided Autosuggest shortens path to purchase.
"Dept is proud to have helped develop this innovative solution; its headless architectural approach really puts control back in the hands of our clients, while lowering the cost and effort required to develop a flexible technology stack that truly supports business objectives," said Harvey Turner, Managing Director at Dept Design & Technology.
