Forrester evaluated vendors against 88 criteria, which were grouped into 3 high-level categories: current offering, strategy, and market presence.

According to Forrester, "Insite Software has made measurable strides since we last reviewed the company in 2013. Still singularly focused on B2B eCommerce and the only major .NET solution provider in the space, Insite's platform offers functionality that meets or exceeds what more expensive high-end Java-based competitors offer -- much of it out of the box. Insite is actively positioning itself as the value offering in the space, particularly for B2B high mid-market and low enterprise companies."

"B2B companies recognize the enormous opportunity of digital commerce to better connect with their customers and look to Insite Software to help deliver a personalized and connected eCommerce solutions that generate results quickly," said Tony Abena, chief executive officer, Insite Software.

"They speak our language and understand what we want to do. They are a key partner in providing strategic direction, guidance, and best practices in eCommerce."

The majority of Insite's clients use the firms' integrated web content management system (WCMS), however the firm has developed a strategic integration with Sitecore for enterprise clients demanding more robust customer experience management capabilities."
