Organizations can drive better business outcomes with Commerce through:

  • Getting everything to build and run digital commerce: Grow your business with a unified digital commerce solution that scales to meet your needs across business and consumer sales.
  • Enabling AI-driven intelligent commerce: Delight your customers with engaging, personalized, and item-based AI-powered recommendations discovery experiences to increase repeat visits, customer retention and loyalty, while increasing conversions and average order values.
  • Modernizing retail stores and streamlining operations: Create personalized and friction-free retail commerce experiences through user-friendly applications powered by robust back-office operations.
  • Gaining agility and scalability through a natively headless solution: Support traditional and emerging channels by using an agile, API-driven headless commerce engine to help adapt to current and emerging needs.

Key investments for this wave include:

  • Customer segmentation and targeting: Digital commerce organizations will be able to use site builder to target customer segments with specific page layouts and content.
  • Integration with Microsoft Clarity: Organizations can use Microsoft Clarity to view how users interact with pages across their site, including mouse-action recordings, heatmaps, and analytics.
  • Customer-specific catalogs: Organizations can define specific product catalogs by business partner organization, which will restrict the business buyers to see and order products only from the catalog associated with their organization.
  • Enhanced reordering experience: Business buyers will be able to reorder the entirety of a past order or pick and choose individual products from a past order for reorder.
  • Reassign admin privileges: Admins of business partner organizations can designate one or many other users as admins and will also be able to revoke the admin privileges of another admin user.
