Open commerce platform for ambitious brands
Updated
Shopware is an open-source ecommerce platform for brands and merchants, especially those with B2B needs. It combines storefronts, a CMS, SEO and analytics with AI tools, and can be hosted as SaaS, PaaS or self-hosted.
Merchants start from the free Community Edition or choose a paid edition, then configure storefronts and extensions and connect CRM, payment and shipping systems. Paid plan pricing is based on gross merchandise value.
The vendor targets enterprise and global brands in industrial and manufacturing, wholesale, automotive, consumer goods, home and DIY and retail. Named customers include Red Bull, Philips, Toyota and Grohe.
Community Edition is free with no license fee, though hosting, implementation and maintenance cost extra. Rise starts from 600 euros per month excluding VAT with the first 30 days free, Evolve from 2,400 euros per month, and Beyond is custom. Paid plan prices depend on GMV, and shops linked to an account that exceed 1 million euros in GMV in 365 days need a paid plan to keep Shopware Account and Store access.
Shopware says it connects existing data and ecommerce tools, including CRM, payments and shipping, and extensions are available through its store.
Salesforce Commerce Cloud is an enterprise SaaS commerce suite with higher licensing costs. Shopify is a hosted platform that is faster to launch but less customizable at the code level. BigCommerce is a SaaS platform with strong B2B features. Shopware's open-source core gives more control.
