Product Description
The Demandware Ecommerce Platform combines the functionality you find on the best e-commerce sites, the flexibility to customize and integrate, and the low operating costs of an on-demand service. By leveraging state-of-the-art e-commerce technology, Web services, and a scalable grid-computing architecture, Demandware provides an enterprise-grade e-commerce solution that does not require any investment in IT infrastructure. Demandware customers pay only for usage and can adapt service levels on demand.
Market Opportunity
With B2C e-commerce growing at 30%-40% in 2005, Demandware estimates the market for e-commerce solutions in North America at over $2B annually. Analysts such as Forrester predict that demand for hosted e-commerce solutions will grow at a faster pace than traditional approaches.
DEMO Says
Despite the economic downturn, retail eCommerce continues to grow at rates approaching 30 percent annually. Yet only the very largest and the very smallest retailers have the appropriate tools to sell their goods online. Demandware fills the vast middle ground (representing billions in goods sold) by taking the on-demand software model to the eCommerce market. Demandware uses Web services and clear standards to deliver integration with the retailers’ inventory, accounting and other backend systems. The company’s approach to an unserved market segment and the founders’ experience at InterShop make this company a smart bet.
