The report notes that SapientNitro is “strong in the retail and branded manufacturing space,” “offers an array of commerce platform selection capabilities,” “boasts strong B2C mobile, analytics and innovation functions” and that clients of the firm said it “is skilled at commerce platform implementations and delivering effective customer experience work – in particular story flow and user scenarios.”
