Umbraco is an open-source content management system (CMS) that has gained popularity due to its flexibility and user-friendliness in website creation. Umbraco is primarily known for its CMS functionality, but it is also possible to build e-commerce features on the platform using third-party e-commerce solutions and plugins, including Vendr.
In 2023, Umbraco announced that they had acquired the company behind Vendr - Vendr ecommerce is a module that enables running webshops on Umbraco CMS. Vendr ensures that you can create and manage your online store directly from Umbraco's CMS interface. Like Umbraco, it is built on .NET technology and offers a range of features that make it easy to manage your e-commerce business, including product management, customer administration, payment gateway integration, and much more.
With this announcement, Umbraco took a big step towards becoming a better e-commerce solution, and now another step has been taken.
During Codegarden 2023, it was announced that Vendr has transformed into Umbraco Commerce.
Umbraco Commerce will initially include the same functionalities as Vendr. Therefore, Commerce is simply the rebranding of Vendr. Commerce will still function as a separate module for Umbraco, integrating with Umbraco CMS. However, there will be an increased focus on developing new features, better integration with add-ons such as Umbraco Deploy, and improved system support.
Additionally, Umbraco has also developed its own e-commerce module as an addition to websites, called Umbraco eCommerce. Umbraco eCommerce is a solution that enables the creation of a fully functional Umbraco webshop with a customized checkout process and product catalog. The solution can handle both B2B and B2C customers and can integrate with various payment and shipping systems. Thus, Umbraco eCommerce provides businesses with a scalable and adaptable solution for building an online store that can be tailored to their specific needs.

Umbraco Commerce is an e-commerce module that enables running a webshop on Umbraco. In 2023, Umbraco announced the acquisition of the company behind Vendr, now Umbraco Commerce. In the future, Vendr will therefore become an integrated part of the Umbraco CMS solution as Umbraco Commerce.
Initially, Umbraco Commerce already includes a wide range of features, but there are also many additional customization options through its extensive range of APIs. It also offers a variety of SEO and marketing configurations that help optimize your Umbraco webshop.
Ucommerce is the most popular solution for running a webshop on Umbraco CMS.
Unlike Umbraco, Ucommerce is not open source. It is built on a "Framework-first" architecture that provides users with flexibility and a well-exposed API and documentation for developers.
Starting with Umbraco 9, Ucommerce offers only a single licensing option. Additionally, Ucommerce provides a free version that can be downloaded at any time. The free version covers most of the essential functionalities required in a webshop.
