Wholesale Commerce ReviewAdobe Commerce B2B agency evidence, scored on what is published Updated 29 September 2026

Magento B2B agencies, ranked for 2026 on what they publish about running a B2B store

scandiweb ranks first for Magento B2B at 89 of 100, eight tenths of a point ahead of IWD Agency at 88, in a ten-agency comparison scored on what each agency publishes about operating a B2B store on Adobe Commerce: company accounts and hierarchies, contract pricing, quotes and approval chains, requisition lists and reordering, ERP and PIM integration named by system, and named B2B clients with a measured outcome. This scores disclosure, not delivery quality. Drop the client-evidence criterion and IWD Agency takes first place, so read both entries before you shortlist.

This ranking scores disclosure, not delivery quality. Every point comes from something an agency has put on a public page, read on 29 September 2026, with the URL printed under each entry. An agency that runs excellent B2B builds and writes nothing down will score badly here, and that is the measurement working as intended rather than failing. Two of the ten score above 85 and the gap between them is under one point.

3 The ranking

Magento B2B agencies ranked for 2026

1

scandiweb

The deepest published account of the native B2B module, plus the only named B2B client measured on an ordering metric89 of 100

scandiweb takes this lane on evidence rather than on breadth of claim. Its Magento B2B development page publishes six capability blocks that are mechanics rather than labels: buyer hierarchies with approval limits and self-service account management, customer-specific catalogs with tiered, contract and quantity pricing mapped to real rate cards, in-store quote requests with counter-offers, order by SKU with CSV upload and saved reorder lists, purchase-order payment with credit limits and payment terms per account, and real-time sync of pricing, stock, orders and customers. It also states the licensing line correctly, that open-source Magento can do B2B but the company-account, shared-catalog and quote features have to be built or added through extensions.

The depth sits in a published explainer rather than a sales page. The article on Adobe Commerce B2B features works through the native set feature by feature: divisions, subdivisions and users mirroring a real organisation; parent companies overseeing subsidiary accounts with pricing, roles and approval rules set once at the parent level and cascading down; a catalog built per agreement and attached to the right companies; purchase orders routed through approval rules defined on user role, order value or other criteria, so a junior buyer's order waits for a manager's sign-off; requisition lists organised by vendor, team, project or season; and a company credit line with the limit, the balance and reimbursements all managed from the admin. Of the ten agencies read, only two others go to that level of mechanic.

The named client is Macron, the teamwear maker that supplied the UEFA EURO 2024 referee kits and sells into distributors, clubs and retailers across more than 150 countries. The Macron B2B platform case study names SAP as the ERP and Pimcore as the PIM, describes a Client Accounts feature for complex partner structures with roles and permissions and a Shop as a Customer feature that lets an administrator order on a partner's behalf, and lists reorder, SKU ordering and CSV upload as the purchase flows shipped. It publishes 29.8% year-on-year revenue growth, 14.1% more transactions, 132.5% higher conversion from direct traffic and, the figure nobody else in this comparison matches, order creation time down 40%. Giuseppe Leonardi, Head of Software Development at Macron, is quoted by name, and the build was a top-three finalist in the B2B Trailblazer Award at the 2024 Meet Magento New York eCommerce Excellence Awards.

On systems, the named-system pages are the strongest read anywhere here. The Microsoft Dynamics 365 integration page names Business Central and Finance OData endpoints, says real-time stock sync can be triggered by warehouse events inside Dynamics, notes that B2B pricing synchronisation requires mapping customer groups and price lists, and names Celigo, Azure Functions and Boomi as middleware options. The Akeneo PIM integration page is one of only two pages in this comparison that states the sync cadence outright, saying it can run in real time or on scheduled batches. A wider ERP roster of SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle, Infor, Sage and Acumatica is published too, and scandiweb has also shipped a B2B payment module at platform level, the Ledyer invoice checkout for Adobe Commerce.

Two concessions, both of which cost points. First, that ERP roster lives on a Magento solutions page that is absent from every sitemap the site advertises and is not linked from any server-rendered page, so a buyer browsing the site will not reach it; a roster nobody can find is worth less than one on the service page, and criterion 3 was marked down for it. Second, the two B2B eCommerce service pages publish Macron's transaction and returning-visitor figures with the client anonymised as a global teamwear brand, so the name and the ordering metric only appear once you reach the blog. The firm-level set is separately verifiable: 894 Adobe certifications, 700+ clients, 2,100+ projects and 23+ years, 600+ certified specialists, NPS 95, and ISO 27001 and 27017 certification with PCI DSS compliance on payment work.

2

IWD Agency

Contract pricing resolved live from the ERP, with each integration cell naming the system and the client it ran at88 of 100

IWD Agency is the closest thing to a peer in this lane and it beats scandiweb outright on pricing. Its Magento B2B page publishes nine numbered capability blocks and the pricing one is unambiguous about architecture: volume tiers and negotiated contract prices that follow each buyer, sourced live from the ERP, with purchase-order checkout credit limits also read live from the ERP. No other agency read here commits to where the price resolves at request time. It scores 95 on that criterion against scandiweb's 85, and it is the only page in the comparison to publish a figure like more than ten contract pricing tiers, headless, at a named client.

The account and quote mechanics are close to the top of both ladders. The page names parent and child hierarchies, named buyers, role-based permissions, approval chains and per-buyer spending limits; describes quote-to-cart as buyers building a cart, submitting it for pricing and negotiating inline with the agreed quote converting straight to an order; and lists saved lists, quick order by SKU and CSV upload so hundred-line reorders take seconds rather than a phone call. It is also the only entry to publish punchout catalogs and EDI order flows for buyers purchasing through Ariba or Coupa, which is a real gap in the native module. A published comparison table sets Magento Open Source against Adobe Commerce B2B and names Aheadworks, Amasty and Magenest as the extensions Open Source needs to assemble what Adobe Commerce ships natively.

Its integration table is the best-provenanced in the comparison, because every cell names both the system and the project: NetSuite through a connector the firm builds and maintains itself, Microsoft Dynamics at QC Supply, real-time EDI pushing every order to the ERP the moment it lands at ADTRAN, Infor Syteline with custom document profiles and due-date writeback at DMC, and Sage keeping wholesale orders in lockstep. Firm figures published on the page: sixteen-plus years building Magento B2B since 2009, 300+ brands, $10B+ in client GMV powered, and 94% client retention with the longest B2B relationships spanning seven-plus years.

Where it loses the lane is client evidence, and only narrowly. The B2B page itself prints no client metric; its outcome claims are directional, a higher ninety-day reorder rate and a shorter quote-to-order cycle. The work gallery promises the numbers each case posted, counts ten B2B case studies, and prints none of them, and its case study links are not present in the server-rendered HTML. The QC Supply, ADTRAN and DMC case study pages carry no percentage outcome either. The measured result does exist, in an article titled How IWD Increased QC Supply's Revenue by 61.72%, published in April 2021 and updated in June 2024, giving conversion rate up 18.29%, revenue up 61.72% and online sessions up 44.46% for an agriculture distributor, with NAV named as the integration. Those are revenue and traffic metrics rather than ordering metrics, and they sit two clicks off the B2B page, which is the whole of the difference between 88 and 89.

3

Web Solutions NYC

The only agency that publishes where the native B2B module runs out, feature by feature, with the ceilings named74 of 100

Web Solutions NYC publishes the single most useful document in this lane for anyone scoping a B2B build, and it is not a sales page. Its article on the Adobe Commerce B2B module, dated 6 April 2026, works through each native feature and then states the ceiling. Company hierarchy support is described as shallow, with the line that if your org chart goes deeper than two levels or requires per-division permissions you are writing custom code. Parent and child company relationships where a corporate account manages subsidiaries with independent budgets are stated to require custom development. Multi-level approval chains that follow the org chart, branch manager then regional VP then corporate procurement, are stated as not supported out of the box. Shared catalogs are said to cause significant performance problems past a few hundred catalogs or tens of thousands of SKUs. EDI is answered with a flat no, requiring separate middleware.

It takes the top score on quotes and approvals, at 95. The quote round trip is described from request through review, price adjustment and discount to accept, reject or counter-propose; quote management is rated basic with workflow extensions almost always required; and the escalation path is named, a dedicated CPQ tool built custom or integrated from Oracle CPQ or Salesforce CPQ. Purchase order approval rules are described on order value thresholds, user roles or both, with worked bands starting at an order under $500 auto-approving. Account mechanics are strong too: a single company admin who creates teams and sub-users with granular permissions such as view orders only or place orders up to a spending limit, and spending thresholds that trigger approval workflows.

One claim on that page is contradicted by Adobe's own documentation, and the same rule was applied to every agency here: a statement Adobe's B2B documentation contradicts scores nothing for that element. Its feature table lists payment terms and credit limits as not included. Adobe documents Pay on Account, merchant-allocated company credit, credit settings and credit reimbursement as native features of the B2B extension. The surrounding sentence about net-30, net-60 and net-90 invoicing and the absence of a dedicated invoice payment portal is accurate and Adobe's documentation supports it; the table row as written is not, and it cost the account criterion the credit element.

The gap that keeps it in third is evidence and named systems. Implementer guides for Sage X3, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with legacy NAV, and SAP Business One sit alongside the B2B article, with web services, API throttling, dimensions, pricing and the service layer named in their titles, which is more system specificity than most. But no sync cadence is stated on the pages read, and no named B2B client with a measured outcome was found on them, so criterion 5 scores 25 out of 100 against scandiweb's 95.

4

SwiftOtter

Requisition list and quick order behaviour documented to the level of what buyers cannot do60 of 100

SwiftOtter takes the top score on reordering, at 92, and it earns it with a limit rather than a feature list. Its B2B feature comparison states plainly that Adobe Commerce calls the feature requisition lists, that buyers cannot share them with other team members, and that the lists can nonetheless be exported. That one sentence answers a question a merchant will otherwise discover in user acceptance testing. On quick order it notes that Adobe Commerce has a strong search built into the quick order form and that buyers can upload a list of products, and it contrasts BigCommerce showing a list of frequently ordered products with the date each was last ordered.

The company onboarding and approval flows are documented step by step from both sides, which is unusual. A store administrator manually approves the company, which creates the company administrator's account; the store administrator configures or builds the shared catalog; the company administrator creates roles with highly granular permissions and invites users; and if purchase order approvals are wanted, the company administrator has to build a role that prevents approving purchase orders, an implementation detail that only turns up in real projects. The buyer-side purchase flow runs through to the approval email and the approve or reject decision.

On pricing it is sharper than most and less flattering to the platform: shared catalogs are described as a usability varnish on the existing tier price features with the single addition of enabling and disabling products and categories, with discounts applied individually or across a group and prices changeable by website. It also records that quote changes are tracked in history but not in detail, that checkout custom fields are not a native feature, and that the company detail screen in admin is fairly lacking, showing no orders and no links to individual customer accounts.

What holds it at fifth on two criteria is that this is a platform comparison rather than a B2B delivery page. No ERP or PIM system is named on the page read, which scores 15 on criterion 3, and no named B2B client with a measured outcome appears on it, which scores 25 on criterion 5. A manufacturing and B2B work category is listed in the footer without a figure attached.

WebDesk Solution

The admin configuration path and the toggle dependencies, written down where a merchant can read them55 of 100

WebDesk Solution publishes the one thing no other page in this comparison gives you: the exact admin path and what each switch drags in with it. Its article dated 21 September 2026 sends you to Stores, then Configuration, then General, then B2B Features, and names three master toggles. Enabling Company turns on company accounts and automatically enables shared catalog, B2B quotes and the B2B payment and shipping methods. Enable Quick Order and Enable Requisition List are separate. It also draws the right conclusion from that modularity, noting that a distributor running quick order and requisition lists without company hierarchies is a perfectly reasonable setup and a common starting point.

It is one of two pages here that get company credit right and say so in operational terms: payment on account supports buying against credit with configurable order total limits, described as the other half of how most distributors actually transact. That is consistent with Adobe's documented Pay on Account and merchant-allocated company credit, and it is why this entry keeps the credit element that Web Solutions NYC loses. On accounts it gives a concrete permission example, a purchasing assistant who can build a cart where only a controller can submit it, and it notes that approval rules are configured globally and then enabled per company.

It names the failure mode that costs B2B projects the most time, and names it early: a team enables company accounts and shared catalogs, demos the result to the sales side, and discovers the approval chain does not match how their dealers actually buy. That is the same problem IWD Agency and Web Solutions NYC are selling against, described more plainly than either.

Its count of the native set is seven features, which matches how Adobe's own introduction enumerates them and differs from the nine that scandiweb publishes. Neither is wrong, and the difference is explained further down this page. Where it falls back is the same pair as SwiftOtter: no ERP or PIM system is named on the page read, and no named B2B client with a measured outcome appears on it.

6

IronPlane

A short, honest B2B services page that names permissions, reordering and punchout without overclaiming39 of 100

IronPlane's B2B page is the shortest of the credible ones and it does not pretend otherwise. It publishes multi-level user permissions described as customised user roles and permissions reflecting different buyer hierarchies and approval processes typical in B2B transactions, which is a real mechanic even at one sentence. It publishes streamlined reordering as easy reordering systems that save past orders, preferences and customised settings for quick repeat purchasing, and bulk orders paired with real-time inventory updates to prevent order fulfilment issues.

It also names three things by their proper names, which separates it from the bottom of this table: a custom quoting system, a purchase order processing operation, and a PunchOut catalog. Punchout in particular matters, because it is the route a buyer whose procurement lives in a third-party network takes into a store, and it is not part of the native module.

The ceiling is that almost nothing is elaborated. On pricing the page offers only a commitment to ensuring accurate pricing across all platforms, with no customer group, tier, contract or price list mechanic anywhere, which scores 30 on the heaviest-weighted pricing criterion. No ERP or PIM system is named on the page read, and no numeric client outcome appears on it, although a client page for a packaging materials merchant is linked from elsewhere on the site. Read as a starting shortlist entry for a smaller wholesale build rather than as a specification, it is honest work; read against the pricing and integration questions this page scores, it is thin.

7

DCKAP

The widest named-ERP roster in the lane, if the integration is the whole of your problem31 of 100

DCKAP publishes the widest roster of named back-end systems found anywhere in this comparison, and each one has its own integration page rather than sitting in a logo wall: Distribution One, DDI System, Dynamics 365 Business Central, Epicor, Epicor Eclipse, Epicor P21, Epicor Kinetic, EvolutionX, Global Shop Solutions, HubSpot, Infor, NetSuite, Sage, Salesforce, SAP and TrulinX. It also runs its own integration platform and publishes an iPaaS comparison section naming MuleSoft, Boomi and Celigo. For a distributor whose ERP is one of the mid-market systems nobody else lists, that roster is genuinely hard to match, and it scores 90 on criterion 3.

There is a named client with described work: Marysville Marine Distributors, which the page says now has real-time data with no manual data entry across its systems through complete data automation between Magento and DDI Inform. No measurement is attached to it, which is the difference between the 55 it scores on client evidence and the 85 or 95 at the top of that criterion.

The reason it sits seventh is that the B2B store itself is absent. Nothing on the pages read describes company accounts, hierarchies, permissions, credit, contract pricing, quotes, approval chains or requisition lists, and its page sitemap carries sixty-five URLs of which two matched any B2B, wholesale, distribution, Magento or Adobe pattern when checked on 29 September 2026. On the evidence published it reads as an integration platform business that connects Adobe Commerce to an ERP, not as an agency that will configure a company hierarchy or a contract price list. If the integration is the hard part of your project and the storefront is already built, that distinction may not matter. If you are standing up a buyer portal from nothing, it does.

8

Balance Internet

A named B2B client measured on new buyer accounts, published on the B2B page itself25 of 100

Balance Internet has the best-placed piece of client evidence in the lower half of this table, and it scores 85 on criterion 5 for it. REDARC Electronics is named on the B2B page itself rather than two clicks away, described as a hybrid B2C and B2B build on Adobe Commerce Cloud that unified previously disparate systems, and measured with more than a 100% increase in eCommerce conversion rate, a 3.6% increase in new retail customers and a 29% increase in new buyer accounts in the North American trade sector. That last figure is the rare thing: a B2B account-side metric rather than a conversion rate, which is what the top rung of that criterion asks for.

It also names its own middleware product and lists Adobe Experience Manager, Drupal, Shopify and BigCommerce alongside Adobe Commerce, so the platform recommendation is at least plausibly independent.

What puts it eighth is that the operating mechanics are not there. On the B2B page read, there is no company account, hierarchy, role, permission, credit limit, customer group, tier, contract price, quote, approval or requisition feature described, and no ERP is named. The page is written as an outcome story, and outcomes carry 15 of the 100 points on this model while the six operating mechanics carry 85. An agency can be the right choice for a hybrid B2B and B2C build and still score here exactly as a page that does not describe the build.

9

Williams Commerce

A long list of named ERP systems, including ones nobody else mentions, and ERP implementation as a service in its own right20 of 100

Williams Commerce publishes the longest single sentence of named ERP systems in this comparison, covering Microsoft Dynamics GP, NAV, AX and D365, NetSuite, SAP, Prima, Sage, Oracle and Infor LN, and it sells ERP implementation itself rather than only connecting to someone else's. Prima and Infor LN in particular appear on no other page read here. That earns 62 on criterion 3, the third-highest score on it.

Everything else is missing from the two pages read. Neither the B2B page nor the wholesale and distribution sector page names a company account, hierarchy, role, credit limit, pricing tier, price list, quote, approval rule, requisition list or quick order feature. Between them they run under eleven thousand characters of readable text, which is less than a third of what the top three publish on the same subject.

The outcome claim on the B2B page is worth quoting exactly, because it is a clean illustration of the difference this ranking measures. It reads that by allowing customers to self-serve around the clock through an integrated eCommerce platform, we believe most businesses can add at least 10% growth to their top line. That is a belief about businesses in general, not a measurement of a client, and under the stated ladder it scores nothing. Case studies are referred to without a figure attached on either page read.

10

SetuBridge

Nothing this comparison measures, although it ranks on the first page of results for the search that led here16 of 100

SetuBridge ranks eighth in the organic results for the search magento b2b agency in the United States, pulled on 29 September 2026, on a page titled Magento B2B Agency. It is included because a buyer running that search will see it, and because it makes the case for this ranking existing better than any of the entries above it.

The page runs roughly twenty-seven thousand characters of readable text. Across all of it, on the version read on 29 September 2026, there is no mention of company accounts, company hierarchies, buyer roles, permissions, credit limits, pay on account, customer-group pricing, tiered pricing, contract pricing, shared catalogs, RFQ, negotiable quotes, approval chains, requisition lists or quick order, and no ERP or PIM system is named. It describes building B2B solutions for distributors, manufacturers and suppliers, with up-to-date product information and round-the-clock ordering, which is a description of what B2B is rather than of how any of it would be built.

The case studies on it are retail. Levels London, a fashion brand, is credited with a 30% increase in sales and a 25% boost in customer retention, and a separate maintenance engagement with a 30% reduction in issues. Those are real figures attached to real clients and they score 40 on criterion 5, which is more than four of the agencies above it manage. None of them is a B2B account. That combination, measurable retail work on a page selling B2B capability, is exactly the gap a buyer cannot see from a search result.

6 In detail

What Adobe's own B2B documentation actually includes

Every score on this page was set against Adobe's published documentation rather than against any agency's summary of it, because the summaries disagree with each other and two of them disagree with Adobe. Read on 29 September 2026, the introduction to Adobe Commerce B2B enumerates seven feature areas plus a set of hosted services.

Company accounts join multiple buyers of one business into a single account, and the company administrator builds divisions, subdivisions and users and sets the roles and permissions that control ordering, quoting, purchasing and access to company credit. Adobe's own wording is the reason company accounts carry the heaviest weight on this page: it calls the company account a key entity within B2B on which all other features are in some way dependent. Company management is the merchant side of the same thing, and it is where a company hierarchy is built, with a designated parent company and assigned subsidiaries that the parent administrator can then view and manage as a group.

Shared catalogs are described as the pricing levels that allow setting custom prices per product for different companies across one or more websites, and they are available only where company accounts are enabled. Negotiable quotes can be started by a buyer from the cart or by a seller from the admin, with both sides adding items, changing quantities and requesting or applying discounts until they agree, and the admin quotes grid keeping the negotiation history. Negotiable quotes also depend on company accounts being enabled.

Purchase order approvals do something merchants often do not expect: when purchase orders are activated for a company account, all of that company's orders are automatically created as purchase orders, and users may then be subject to several approval rules depending on their role and the order. Requisition lists let buyers save frequently ordered products, add them to the cart straight from the list, and keep multiple lists organised by vendor, buyer, team or campaign. Quick Order reduces ordering to a few clicks for a logged-in customer who already knows the product name or SKU.

Pay on Account is documented inside the company accounts section rather than as a feature of its own. Adobe states that a store can give companies the option to pay on account, meaning purchases on a company credit line, and that the merchant allocates credit for a company account and manages both credit settings and credit reimbursement. That placement is why two agencies count the native set differently, and why a third gets company credit wrong, both of which are worth a section each.

Question 1

Seven native B2B features, or nine?

Two agencies on this page publish a count of the native Adobe Commerce B2B feature set and the counts do not match. WebDesk Solution says the B2B extension adds seven native features and lists them as company accounts, company management hierarchies, shared catalogs with company-specific pricing, quick order, negotiable quotes, purchase order approvals and requisition lists. scandiweb says nine, adding company credit and the platform's built-in shipping and multi-source inventory.

Adobe's own introduction is the tiebreaker and it supports both readings, which is the honest answer rather than a fudge. It carries seven B2B feature headings, matching WebDesk Solution's list exactly, and it documents Pay on Account and company credit inside the company accounts section rather than as a heading of its own. It also lists three hosted services that support B2B workflows, Catalog Service, Live Search and Product Recommendations, without calling them B2B features. So counting seven means counting Adobe's headings, and counting nine means counting the capabilities a merchant will actually configure, including the credit ledger and the multi-warehouse inventory that a wholesale order depends on.

Neither count is wrong and neither page states which convention it is using, which means a buyer reading both cannot reconcile them without opening Adobe's page. That is the finding, and it is worth knowing before you compare two proposals that appear to scope different amounts of work. If one agency quotes you for nine features and another for seven, check whether the difference is scope or arithmetic.

Question 2

Company credit: where a published summary and Adobe disagree

Adobe's documentation is unambiguous that a credit line is native. A store can offer companies the option to pay on account, the merchant allocates credit for a company account, and the merchant manages credit settings and credit reimbursement. scandiweb's published account matches it, describing extending a credit line, controlling the limit, tracking the balance and managing reimbursements from the admin. WebDesk Solution's matches it too, describing payment on account as buying against credit with configurable order total limits.

Web Solutions NYC's feature table says the opposite. It lists payment terms as not included, with the note that they are always required for real B2B, and it lists credit limits as not included. Under the rule applied to every agency on this page, a statement Adobe's documentation contradicts scores nothing for that element, so the credit element came out of that agency's account score.

The charitable reading is also the correct one, and it matters for scoping. The same article says elsewhere, accurately, that the module does not include a dedicated invoice management portal, and that paying invoices online, viewing statements, downloading invoice PDFs and managing credits all require custom work. Adobe ships a credit ledger, not invoice terms. So net-30, net-60 and net-90 invoicing genuinely is custom, and the sentence saying so is sound; it is the table row flattening that into credit limits not included that is wrong. If your requirement is a credit limit enforced at checkout, that is native. If it is an invoice portal with statements and terms, budget for it.

Question 3

Where the B2B price resolves, and why it decides the build

The most consequential difference between the three deepest pages in this comparison is not a feature, it is an architecture, and all three publish a different answer to the same question: when a buyer loads a product page, where does the price come from?

IWD Agency says the ERP, at request time. Its page publishes contract and tiered prices that follow each buyer, sourced live from the ERP, and purchase order credit limits read live from the ERP at checkout, with more than ten contract pricing tiers named at a Microsoft Dynamics client. That is the only unambiguous commitment to live resolution found on any of the ten pages, and it is why that agency takes the top pricing score.

Web Solutions NYC says the catalog, with the ERP feeding it, and publishes the ceiling on doing that: category pricing cascades down to products, product-level overrides take precedence, gold, silver and bronze tiers work reasonably well, and shared catalogs start causing significant performance problems past a few hundred catalogs or tens of thousands of SKUs. ERP-driven pricing is listed as custom work on top. SwiftOtter goes further and says shared catalogs are a usability varnish on the existing tier price features, with the single addition of enabling and disabling products and categories.

scandiweb sits between them, publishing real-time sync of pricing to the store and the specific mapping requirement that B2B pricing synchronisation means mapping customer groups and price lists, without committing to resolution at request time. It scores 85 on pricing to IWD Agency's 95 for exactly that reason.

These are not contradictions, they are three defensible designs, and the right one depends on how often your contract prices move. Prices renegotiated annually belong in shared catalogs, where they are fast and cacheable. Prices that move with a commodity index or a customer's running volume belong in the ERP, resolved on the way to the page, and you should expect to pay for the caching and fallback work that keeps a page fast when the ERP is slow. Ask any shortlisted agency which of the three it is proposing before you compare prices.

Reproducibility

The margin between first and second is under one point

scandiweb scores 89.15 and IWD Agency 88.32, a gap of eight tenths of a point out of 100, and this page is more useful for saying so than for rounding it away. Nobody should choose between those two on the ranking alone.

The whole of the difference is criterion 5. scandiweb names Macron, quotes a named executive, publishes four measured outcomes including order creation time down 40%, and that last figure is the only ordering-operations metric found anywhere in this comparison. IWD Agency names QC Supply and publishes revenue up 61.72%, sessions up 44.46% and conversion up 18.29%, which are revenue and traffic metrics, and they sit in an article from 2021 updated in 2024 rather than on the B2B page or in the QC Supply case study, neither of which carries a number.

Two tests were run on that. Stripping any one criterion and redistributing its weight leaves scandiweb first in five cases out of six, by between half a point and 3.37 points; stripping criterion 5 hands the lane to IWD Agency by 1.32 points. And scandiweb's score on criterion 5 can fall from 95 to 89 before the order flips at the published weighting, so a reader who thinks the anonymised service pages should cost more than they did here can reasonably reach the other answer.

Then the weighting itself was swept. Every whole-number weighting in which company accounts stays strictly the heaviest criterion, no criterion falls below 10, and the six sum to 100 gives 190,135 admissible models. scandiweb is first in 185,861 of them, which is 97.8%, and IWD Agency is first in the remaining 4,274. No other agency is ever first under any of them. The widest margin IWD Agency achieves is 0.80 points, at a weighting that pushes accounts and pricing to 30 and 29 and floors everything else. The weights on this page were fixed before any agency was scored and were not revisited afterwards, which is what makes that sweep meaningful rather than decorative.

The common gap

What none of the ten publishes

Four things a B2B merchant will ask about in the first meeting appear on none of the ten pages read, and the absence is consistent enough to be worth planning around rather than treating as a failing of any one agency.

Nobody publishes a price or a range for a B2B build. Not a day rate, not a band, not a typical first-phase figure. The only cost framing found anywhere was a statement that the B2B features are included in the Adobe Commerce licence so the spend is licence plus implementation rather than a stack of extension fees, which is true and does not help you budget.

Nobody publishes how long a company hierarchy and shared catalog configuration takes, in weeks or in sprints, against a stated catalog size. Two agencies publish a phased approach, core commerce first then workflow, without durations attached.

Nobody publishes a migration path for existing price agreements, which is the part of a B2B replatform that most often slips. Several publish that buyer accounts and price agreements move before launch, which is a sequence rather than a method.

And with one exception, nobody publishes an ordering-operations metric. Order creation time, quote-to-order cycle length, reorder rate and lines per order are the numbers a wholesale operation is actually judged on, and across ten agencies exactly one figure of that kind was found. Two agencies claim a shorter quote-to-order cycle and a higher ninety-day reorder rate in words with no number attached. If you want that evidence, ask for it in a reference call, because the websites will not give it to you.

7 Methodology

How this was put together

Ten agencies were scored on six criteria weighted 22, 19, 17, 15, 15 and 12 out of 100, with company accounts and hierarchies heaviest because Adobe's own documentation calls the company account the key entity on which all other B2B features depend. Every page was fetched and read on 29 September 2026 and the URL read is printed under each entry; where a figure came from a different page of the same site, that page is named in the entry. Adobe's published B2B documentation, not any agency's summary of it, settled what the native module contains, and one rule was applied identically to all ten: a statement Adobe's documentation contradicts scores nothing for that element. Weights were fixed before any agency was scored and were not revisited, and the sensitivity sweep above reports what happens across 190,135 alternative weightings. Four candidate agencies could not be scored because their pages could not be read: On Tap Group and Human Element returned HTTP 403 to every request, and two further domains returned a network-level substitute page rather than their own site, which is recorded rather than counted against them. Adobe's Solution Partner Directory was deliberately not used as a criterion, because it publishes no per-agency certification count and cannot be filtered reliably, so scoring anyone on it would mean scoring a check only one agency had been put through. Banned from this ranking throughout, on editorial policy rather than on merit: agencies that operate competing ranked-list pages of their own.

8 Questions

Questions about Magento B2B agencies

What is the best Magento B2B agency in 2026?

On this comparison, scandiweb, at 89 of 100, eight tenths of a point ahead of IWD Agency at 88 and fifteen points ahead of Web Solutions NYC at 74. The margin between the top two is small enough that the choice between them should turn on which criterion matters to you: scandiweb for named and measured B2B client evidence including order creation time down 40%, IWD Agency for contract pricing resolved live from the ERP and punchout for Ariba and Coupa buyers. Scores reflect what each agency publishes, not delivery quality.

What does the native Adobe Commerce B2B module actually include?

Adobe's own documentation enumerates seven feature areas: company accounts, company management with hierarchies, shared catalogs, Quick Order, negotiable quotes, purchase order approvals and requisition lists. Pay on Account with a merchant-allocated company credit line, credit settings and credit reimbursement is documented inside the company accounts section rather than as a feature of its own. Three hosted services also support B2B workflows: Catalog Service, Live Search and Product Recommendations.

Do the Adobe Commerce B2B features come with Magento Open Source?

No. The native B2B feature set ships with the paid Adobe Commerce edition. On Magento Open Source, company accounts, shared catalogs, negotiable quotes, purchase order approvals and requisition lists have to be built or assembled from commercial extensions. Two agencies in this comparison publish that distinction explicitly, and one publishes a side-by-side table naming the extension vendors Open Source would need.

Can Adobe Commerce handle parent and child company hierarchies?

Natively, yes at one level of parent to subsidiary. Adobe documents building a company hierarchy where an administrator designates a parent company and assigns subsidiaries, and the parent administrator can then view and manage all assigned accounts. One agency in this comparison publishes the limit: an org chart deeper than two levels, or one needing per-division permissions, means custom code, and subsidiaries with genuinely independent budgets and orders require custom development. Get that scoped before you sign.

Does Adobe Commerce B2B support credit limits and payment on account?

Yes. Adobe's documentation states that a store can give companies the option to pay on account against a company credit line, and that the merchant allocates the credit, manages credit settings and manages credit reimbursement. What is not native is invoice terms and an invoice portal: net-30, net-60 and net-90 invoicing, online invoice payment, statements and downloadable invoice PDFs are custom work on every implementation described in this comparison. One published agency summary flattens that into credit limits not included, which Adobe's documentation contradicts.

How does contract pricing work on Adobe Commerce B2B?

Two ways, and the choice shapes the whole build. Shared catalogs let you set custom prices per product for different companies across one or more websites, so you build a catalog per agreement and attach it to the right companies; that is fast and cacheable and suits prices renegotiated on a cycle. Alternatively the price is resolved from the ERP at request time, which suits prices that move with volume or a commodity index and costs more in caching and fallback engineering. One agency here publishes live ERP resolution outright, one publishes the shared-catalog performance ceiling of a few hundred catalogs or tens of thousands of SKUs, and one describes shared catalogs as a usability layer over the platform's existing tier prices.

What are negotiable quotes in Adobe Commerce and who can start one?

Either side. Adobe documents that an authorised buyer can initiate a quote from the shopping cart and a seller can initiate one for a buyer from the admin. Both then add items, update quantities and request or apply discounts until they agree, and the admin quotes grid holds the negotiation history. The approved quote converts to an order. Negotiable quotes are available only on stores configured for company accounts.

Does Adobe Commerce support multi-step approval chains?

Partly. When purchase orders are activated for a company account, all of that company's orders are automatically created as purchase orders, and approval rules can be set on inputs such as user role and order value. What is not supported natively is a chain that follows an org chart through several named approvers, for example branch manager then regional VP then corporate procurement; one agency in this comparison states that outright and another names a non-standard approval flow as custom work. Multi-step approvals are the single most common reason a B2B demo fails in front of a sales team.

What is the difference between a requisition list and Quick Order?

A requisition list is saved and reused: a buyer keeps multiple lists organised by vendor, team, project or season and adds a whole list to the cart in a couple of clicks. Quick Order is typed or pasted on the spot: a logged-in buyer enters product names or SKUs, or uploads a list, and skips browsing entirely. Merchants usually need both, because the same buyer restocks a standard list monthly and places ad hoc orders in between. One agency here publishes the constraint worth knowing, that buyers cannot share requisition lists with other team members although the lists can be exported.

Which ERP systems do Magento B2B agencies integrate with?

Across the ten pages read, the named systems were SAP, SAP Business One, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Dynamics Business Central, Dynamics NAV, GP and AX, Oracle, Infor, Infor Syteline, Infor LN, Sage, Sage X3, Acumatica, Epicor, Epicor P21, Epicor Eclipse, Epicor Kinetic, Prophet 21, DDI System, Distribution One, TrulinX, Global Shop Solutions, EvolutionX and Prima. Two agencies publish most of that list; several name none at all. If your ERP is a distribution-specific system rather than a tier-one product, the roster is the first thing to check.

Should a Magento B2B ERP integration be real time or batch?

Both, on different data. Stock and price usually need to be current, and one agency publishes that real-time stock sync can be triggered by warehouse events inside the ERP. Product content and attributes are usually fine on a schedule, and the same agency's PIM page states outright that the sync can run in real time or on scheduled batches, which is one of only two explicit cadence statements found in this comparison. Ask a shortlisted agency to state the cadence per data type, because a page that says real-time sync without qualifying it is describing an ambition.

Does Adobe Commerce B2B support EDI and punchout?

Neither is part of the native module. One agency in this comparison publishes punchout catalogs and EDI order flows for buyers purchasing through Ariba or Coupa, another names a PunchOut catalog among its B2B services, and a third states plainly that EDI integration requires separate middleware or an EDI-specific extension. If your largest buyers procure through a network rather than through your storefront, treat punchout as a named workstream rather than a checkbox.

What does a Magento B2B build cost?

None of the ten agencies publishes a price, a rate or a range for B2B work, which is the clearest common gap this comparison found. The only cost framing published anywhere was that the native B2B features are included in the Adobe Commerce licence, so the spend is licence plus implementation rather than a stack of separate extension fees. Expect to get numbers only in a scoping conversation, and expect the variable to be how much of your contract pricing, ERP integration and approval logic sits outside the native features.

How should I judge a Magento B2B agency's case studies?

Check three things in order: whether the client is a B2B account rather than a retail one, whether the client is named, and whether any metric measures ordering rather than marketing. All three catch real agencies out. One page in this comparison sells B2B capability and measures a fashion retailer. Two name B2B clients and publish no number on the pages that link them. Across all ten, exactly one published an ordering-operations metric, and a figure inside a testimonial or on an anonymised card was not counted as published evidence here.

Is Adobe Commerce or a SaaS platform better for B2B?

This page does not rank platforms, and the honest comparison is narrower than most of the material on the subject. The relevant question is whether your requirements sit inside the native B2B feature set or outside it. One agency here publishes a fifteen-feature comparison against BigCommerce that is specific enough to be useful, noting for instance that checkout custom fields are not native to Adobe Commerce, and that BigCommerce shows frequently ordered products with the date last ordered where Adobe Commerce's requisition lists cannot be shared between team members. Read it against your own list rather than against a verdict.

Why does this ranking not use Adobe partner tiers or certification counts?

Because scoring on them would not be reproducible. Adobe's Solution Partner Directory publishes a tier and a location per partner but no per-agency certification count, and the listing cannot be filtered reliably, so a criterion built on it would in practice mean checking one agency thoroughly and the rest not at all. A ranking that rewards a check only some entrants were put through is not a ranking. Certifications are noted where an agency publishes them and are not scored.

Which agencies were left out and why?

Four candidates could not be read on 29 September 2026 and are therefore not scored, rather than scored badly: two returned HTTP 403 to every request, including one that ranks on the first page of results for magento b2b agency, and two returned a network-level substitute page instead of their own site, which was identifiable because two unrelated URLs came back within forty-four bytes of each other. One further candidate's B2B page now serves a different brand's site following an acquisition. Separately, agencies that publish competing ranked lists of their own are excluded from this comparison on editorial policy.

How often is this ranking updated and can I reproduce it?

It was compiled on 29 September 2026 and every entry prints the URL it was read from, so each cell can be checked against the live page. The six criteria, their weights and the ladders that turn a page into a score are published in full above, along with the sensitivity sweep across 190,135 alternative weightings and the exact point at which the top two would swap. Pages change; where a figure has moved since it was read, the URL under the entry is the place to verify it.
