What do you dislike about the product?
In the communication concerning misfunctionality needs improving!!!
Features that are sold to customers, but are not well tested and do not work as "promised" - untested features (Adyen, Akeneo Connector)
Therefore I'd say Spryker is still in its child shoes
Differences between principles and actual coding
Same thing is done in three ways, e.g defining forms, declaring constants CLIENT_XY vs XY_CLIENT
Things are annotated as deprecated but the actual replacement is not provided (Route Provider which constants are protected and not accessible anymore)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly B2B and B2C webshops.
Relatively easy setup (Docker)
Spryker is a good foundation, but it's not plug and play

Spryker - An interesting Cloud Native eCommerce framework that is still in its infancy
What do you like best about the product?
(+) The modular and extendable nature of Spryker
(+) Well documented interfaces
(+) A lot of interesting features, most of which are features requested by customers
(+) Focus on scalable, cloud native architectures
(+) Free software based and open source development model

What do you dislike about the product?
(-) While the core of Spryker is very stable, all frontend-facing features are less developed and refined
(-) A couple of must have features like Guest Checkout for B2B cases aren't easily installable, they must be deeply integrated into the code
(-) Versioning is a mess, upgrading is always a pain - even for Patch releases
(-) While using static typing in PHP can enhance legibility and stability of code, Spryker often over does this which makes it needlessly complex to work with Spryker

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mid-sized to big eCommerce platforms with >= 100k products and complex search models. Sprykers modular approach to search, database and data structures make it extremely flexible for all kinds of use cases and scenarios.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are in a large-scale project that demands high amounts of customizability and you need a flexible eCommerce framework that you are willing to put some effort into, Spryker is for you. It will support the most demanding business needs but needs some care in return.
If you are just searching for a ready-made, bog standard eCommerce solution, consider something else and more light weight.

A fast growing system with an active community but with room for improvements (platform maturity).
What do you like best about the product?
Active community, many developers available, fast growing feature set, direct contact to Spryker personel (even at higher levels)
What do you dislike about the product?
Not mature yet, Spryker decisions sometimes not understandable (DB switch), no communication about it, rather junior in some fields (PaaS), documentation in some areas outdated, third party modules not timed in roadmap (FirstSpirit connector, PSP modules, Marketplace module ... ), no real issue tracking, communication delays. UX in Yves B2B rather junior
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scalable system which grows with customer needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Choose your Yves template set wisely. But after this, just go ahead, you can't go wrong.
Spryker Review from a PM perspective
What do you like best about the product?
Spryker HandsOn onboarding material (Bootcamp) + training/certification offering. Direct contact to people/departments in Spryker (e.g. documentation, technology, partner management / customer care).
What do you dislike about the product?
Status/Maturity level of third party modules (e.g. payment, connectors to other systems) and status of default features. Often not completely implemented/fully fleshed functionality in comparisson to other e-Commerce systems. Issue tracking only via webform + mail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly B2B and partly B2C webshop scenarios, especially in MVP / green field projects. Relatively easy setup of local dev environment (since Docker; still some problems still linked to Updates and Docker SDK). Most basic concepts (infrastructure/architecture) used in Spryker are a good foundation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Checkout the functionality & maturity of all third party modules you intend to use.
Full customizable e-Commerce Platform that allowed us to be fast to market
What do you like best about the product?
Spryker doesn't start with the pure product offer, but first wants to understand our business, needs and expectations. This enabled us to form a good set up for the creation and realisation of the offer even bofire the start.
Very fast realisation of the project after the start of first quote.
Platform was launched within 3 weeks developement.
Spyker's agile corporate culture fits well woth our way of working and company DNA.

What do you dislike about the product?
While the code architecture is one of Spryker's pros, it's also hard to start as a beginner. It takes some time to understand all of the concepts.
Documentation also sometimes lacks information.
