# Omnichannel Retail Tech Stack of the Decade

![Omnichannel Retail Tech Stack of the Decade whitepaper cover](https://www.hotwax.co/hubfs/common-assets/shared-images/omnichannel-retail-tech-stack-whitepaper.png)

Omnichannel retailing has become a top priority for retailers today. Many are adopting Shopify as their platform of choice to unify online and in-store operations. While Shopify’s capabilities initially appealed to small and mid-sized retailers, it is now being embraced by many enterprise retailers.

Shopify offers robust eCommerce tools, but its out-of-the-box capabilities often fall short for enterprise retailers with omnichannel needs. Gaps exist in areas like advanced order management, sophisticated routing in-store inventory management, returns management, customer relationship management and more.

The good news is retailers can now leverage a proven, scalable and seamless tech stack designed specifically for omnichannel retailing.

Based on extensive experience with Shopify retailers, this stack is:

**Proven:** Trusted by many leading brands.

**Scalable:** Handles thousands of orders per day without hiccups.

**Seamless:** Comes with pre-built integrations that minimize data loss or leaks, with built-in auditing tools to quickly identify and resolve issues.
