In consultation with Gartner, we were given key decision criteria such as cloud-native, headless, and API-first to evaluate ecommerce vendors. The ease of extensibility with continuous upgrade capabilities was also important, among other areas that would future-proof our selection and reduce implementation costs. Virto Commerce was a perfect choice.
