Digital Commerce

Orchestrate commerce around every buying experience.

Bring content and products together to simplify buying and build loyalty.

Connected journeys. Commercial agility. Lasting loyalty.

Grow digital revenue
Improve discovery, conversion and repeat purchase by bringing content, commerce and optimisation around buying outcomes. 

Serve every buyer
Support complex account journeys and simpler direct purchasing without forcing every customer into the same experience. 

Adapt with confidence
Change content, services and experience layers independently as customer expectations, channels and commercial models evolve. 

Commerce technology can work. The buying experience can still feel fragmented.

Customers move between content, search, products and accounts. When the systems behind them operate separately, every hand-off adds friction.

  • The engine controls the experience.

    Embedded commercial logic makes everyday content and journey changes slow, expensive and dependent on specialist development.

  • Composable becomes coordination.

    Specialist platforms create flexibility, but without a clear experience centre they multiply integrations, ownership gaps and effort.

  • B2B buying stays partly mutual.

    Complex pricing, quoting, permissions and support sit outside the digital journey, limiting self-service and increasing service cost.

  • Buying is moving beyond the storefront.

    AI agents create a new route to discovery and transaction that many commerce estates were not designed to support.

Put the buying experience at the centre of the commerce model

Optimizely brings content, discovery and commerce together around the buyer, whether it powers the transaction or orchestrates a composable ecosystem.

  • Orchestrate the experience
    Bring content, discovery, customer context and transactions into one coherent experience while specialist engines retain their strengths. 

  • Composable with intent
    Clear responsibilities across CMS, commerce, search, PIM, DAM and business services create flexibility without losing ownership. 

  • Digitise complex buying
    Move account journeys, self-service and commercial rules online without removing the expertise and relationships that influence purchase. 

  • Prepare for agentic commerce
    Structured product information, callable services, identity and permissions give agents a safer foundation for discovery and transactions.

Take the next step in your journey

Start with the buying decision in front of you, then reduce uncertainty around the experience, operating model and architecture.

  • Understand today
    See where journeys lose customers, manual work limits scale or the current estate makes change harder than it should be. 

  • Define tomorrow
    Shape the model around customer needs, commercial rules and ownership, deciding where Optimizely should run commerce and orchestrate experience. 

  • Prove
    Test the highest-value journey and its integrations, creating evidence for the experience, architecture and investment before wider change. 

Make the right commerce decision for the experience and the business

  • The right choice depends on how your customers buy, the complexity of pricing and accounts, your product data and the systems behind the experience. We help you compare the options in plain language and choose what fits your organisation. 

  • We study how customers search, choose products and complete checkout, then focus on the points causing the most friction. Important changes are measured or tested, so you build a steady programme of improvements rather than rely on occasional redesigns. 

  • Yes. You can provide a straightforward consumer journey alongside business accounts with different pricing, permissions and purchasing rules. We help you share the right capabilities while keeping each customer experience clear and appropriate. 

  • You do not need to replace every part at once. We separate what customers experience from the services behind it, move data and journeys in planned stages and protect trading throughout, giving your organisation a controlled route away from Hybris. 

  • Optimizely can connect to the systems holding product, stock, pricing and customer information. We make those connections dependable and visible, so customers receive accurate information and your teams spend less time correcting data or chasing failed updates.
