Commerce Cloud (originally Demandware before it was acquired) is part of the Salesforce software suite and is a commerce solution designed for the needs of large enterprises. Shopify is a platform that specializes in commerce for businesses of all sizes, from the small mom-and-pop shop to the most popular direct-to-consumer brands.Shopify Plusis a powerful cost-effective solution for the world’s biggest retailers, serving the same market as Salesforce Commerce Cloud.
