XSARUS Headless Storefront Accelerator
Put flexibility, performance, and experience first with a headless storefront
Are you limited by standard templates in your current e-commerce platform? Does your webshop fall short in performance and stability? Then a headless platform is worth considering. Combine the best of both worlds: a powerful e-commerce backend with the freedom of a flexible frontend. With more than ten headless implementations and a growing set of reusable storefronts, you are assured of a strong start.
With a headless storefront you put flexibility, performance and experience first.
The benefits of an XSARUS headless storefront
Faster loading, better performance
One of the most obvious benefits of a headless setup is performance. Only what is needed for presentation at a specific moment on a specific device is loaded and displayed on the frontend. A positive side effect is potential savings on hosting costs. Fewer servers are required to continuously build pages.
Flexibility and stability
In an all-in-one platform, even a small change can be complex. A minor adjustment in the frontend, for example after an A/B test, requires a full deployment cycle. In a headless setup only the frontend application is replaced, leaving the backend untouched. This reduces the risk of errors and increases stability.
Our biggest win: flexibility! With the headless rebuild we gained more control about the future of our technical architecture and can react faster to new emerging trends or consumer needs. Our headless platform also allows us to tell our brand and product stories even better than before.
Adopt the latest technology
Working with APIs makes it easy to implement new frontend technologies without impacting the backend.
Personalisation and customer experience
Unlimited freedom in the frontend means more room for personalisation and customer experience. You are not tied to standard templates or rigid syntax. Create a fully tailored experience for your visitors. Integrate external tools for personalisation seamlessly and efficiently.
