What is Salesforce Commerce Cloud?
Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) is the ecommerce platform inside the Salesforce ecosystem. It powers B2C and B2B storefronts, headless commerce APIs (via Commerce Cloud Headless), and unified customer + product data with the rest of Salesforce. Distinctively, Commerce Cloud now ships with Einstein AI for product recommendations, predictive search, and personalised journeys baked into the platform.
What does Decision Foundry's Commerce Cloud service include?
Strategy and storefront architecture; B2C, B2B, and headless rollouts; Einstein AI activation (product recommendations, search ranking, personalisation); integrations with Order Management, ERP, PIM, and inventory systems; performance optimisation; merchandising tooling; embedded commerce inside Service Cloud and Sales Cloud (selling from within service interactions). We deliver from greenfield builds through replatform migrations.
How is Commerce Cloud different from Shopify, BigCommerce, or Adobe Commerce?
Shopify is best-in-class for SMB and mid-market simplicity; BigCommerce splits the difference for larger merchants; Adobe Commerce is enterprise but harder to manage. Commerce Cloud's edge is its native integration with Salesforce CRM, Marketing Cloud, Service Cloud, and now Agentforce — meaning your storefront, marketing journeys, service cases, and AI agents share one customer + product record. For enterprises already on Salesforce, that's the win.
How long does a Commerce Cloud implementation take?
A focused B2C storefront migration runs 4–6 months for mid-market and 7–12 months for enterprise or multi-locale. B2B Commerce implementations vary widely depending on catalog complexity but typically run 5–8 months. Headless Commerce Cloud builds (SFCC + a separate frontend like Next.js or React) follow a similar arc but with more frontend engineering. Every engagement starts with a discovery call and storefront audit.
We have Shopify or BigCommerce — should we migrate to Commerce Cloud?
Not automatically. Migration makes sense when (1) you're already deep on Salesforce and the cross-cloud data integration would unlock measurable wins, (2) you've outgrown your current platform on B2B complexity or international scaling, or (3) AI-driven personalisation is becoming a strategic priority. If none of those apply, your current platform may be the right choice. We'll give you a candid recommendation — and we've migrated both directions before.
