Is Your eCommerce Platform Really “Good Enough?”
Is your biggest business risk what you’re not doing? Your eCommerce platform might seem “fine for now.” But when revenue, retention, and reputation are at stake, “fine” could be costing you more than you know.
What’s Your Legacy Platform Really Costing You?
Caution That Costs You
Is your tech budget always increasing, yet you’re still falling behind customer expectations? Research shows that organizations spend up to 80% of their IT budgets just keeping legacy systems running. Why not reinvest that into innovation?
Is your platform restricting profitability?
Suffocating Licensing Fees: How much are you spending on integrations to get basic functionality? That’s cash flow you could reinvest in customer acquisition or innovation.
Budget Swallowing Backend: If all your devs are focused on platform maintenance – not innovation – your tech is just a cost center, not a growth enabler.
Convoluted Frontends Cost You: Large frontend teams and a heavy agency dependency slow releases and inflate costs.

Turn Complexity into +20% Sales
“[Before launching with SCAYLE,] instead of scaling a fashion brand, we felt like we were building a software company…We were unable to focus on customer experiences as we were always tied up by the backend.” – Patric Bökemeyer – COO at Kapten & Son
Digital Experiences That Underwhelm – Undersell
Hyper-personalization, frictionless returns, omnichannel. Your competitors are offering this and more. 80% of shoppers abandoned a brand last year. If you’re not delivering the experiences they love – they’ll walk.
Is your team fighting your eCommerce platform?
Cookie-Cutter Customer Experiences: “Exciting,” “connected,” “personal” – would customers describe your brand this way? Or are you about to lose them?
Employees hate it: The customer is always right. But what about your team? Poor tools lead to slower innovation cycles and higher churn among your most valuable talent
