Questions you may have
What do I get with the B2Xaccelerator?
You get a toolkit that helps you rapidly develop and deploy your new or revamped B2B or B2C platform. The toolkit contains processes, API endpoints, wireframes, standard requirements, and documentation. Together these assets give you important B2B and B2C functions, ready to use in a single package.
Do I need licensing for the accelerator?
No, the accelerator is free-of-charge for mindcurv customers.
How is the accelerator useful if I’m starting a B2B project?
If you’re starting a B2B project with commercetools, the accelerator will help you navigate requirements, architecture and development. For example, how can these APIs be structured and orchestrated to achieve desired capabilities? Or where will responsibilities lie for the roles and permissions of customers?
The accelerator provides development requirements and features not available in the base commercetools feature set.
How is project time reduced with the B2Xaccelerator?
We’re confident you can launch POC faster with ready-to-use B2B and B2C processes. In addition to the software, you’ll save time on the discovery assets documenting the requirements and user experience. Savings will also accrue from following the “railings” or guidelines of the process and the continuous deployment pipelines.
How do I use the B2Xaccelerator?
- You can use the accelerator to scope your own project and map to your specific requirements.
- You can use the wireframes to explore specific needs with your customers, live discovery, and real-time documentation.
- You can use the source code as-is, extend it, or use it for inspiration.
And of course, there’s more.
How does the accelerator help me get the best out of commercetools?
You can view the B2Xaccelerator as an API orchestration layer aligned with top industry thinking on composable commerce. This architecture paradigm lets you seamlessly address any user interface functionality. It wraps commercetools APIs and orchestrates them with other 3rd party applications to create unique B2B & B2C commerce use cases for your customers.
I’m not a beginner in B2B digital commerce platforms. Is the accelerator still useful?
Yes. Even the most digitally mature organizations will benefit from using the accelerator. The wireframes, documentation, diagrams and code will add up to faster delivery and earlier ROI.
Which cloud subscription will I need to run the application?
You can use any cloud service provider or on-premise solution. The tooling is fully agnostic, but the use of some of the features will require configuration – for example sending emails, offline processes, and authentication.
Can mindcurv operate my platform?
Yes, cloud platform operation is one of our primary services. Learn more about our managed services offering and how simplify the day-to-day operations of your platform
How is this different from a Hybris B2B commerce accelerator?
The B2Xaccelerator is built to augment commercetools’ features for B2B, extend APIs, and run features independently, while a Hybris accelerator runs on top of SAP cloud commerce following a more monolithic design pattern.
Is the accelerator compatible with my B2C platform?
Yes, it is compatible. Many of the extensions and features that support internationalization, multi-channel configuration, units of measure etc., can be used to enhance your B2C application. We have additional expertise in B2C that can help you create, scale and evolve your platforms. Get in touch to know more.
Will mindcurv support me for future commercetools API changes that affect my platform?
Yes, of course. mindcurv assists all customers with upgrades to use new and improved APIs.
