Find out exactly what's slowing down your SAP storefront

A free audit of your SAP Composable Storefront (Spartacus) or Accelerator frontend. Performance, architecture, and what's actually fixable, tied to your real codebase. Not a generic checklist.

Your store works fine. That's why the cost stays hidden.

We benchmarked 200+ live SAP Composable Storefront (previously Spartacus) sites on mobile. The two numbers below are the average, and almost every site scores about the same, no matter who built it.

Composable migration benchmarks

Spartacus caps your performance low from the start. Alokai isn't bound by it.

Both demos ran the same mobile Lighthouse test, and both are full storefronts, not stripped-back shells. Spartacus scores lower because of how it's built: a heavy JavaScript bundle it can't shed, so teams fight the framework for every point instead of following it. Great performance comes from the architecture underneath, a BFF and a cloud doing the heavy lifting, which an accelerator doesn't have. You need a platform, not an accelerator.

The last brand that asked us for an audit

Carolina Herrera came for the audit. They weren’t planning to replace their storefront.

Carolina Herrera, part of the PUIG group, wanted one thing: an independent read on their SAP Composable Storefront. We gave them that, including what they could fix without leaving. They moved to Alokai anyway, and two months after launch the results were already well past the KPIs they had set.

Migrating is not the year you think it is

Your backend doesn’t move. The frontend goes market by market, and because Alokai is AI-native, agents do the Spartacus rewrite in weeks instead of months.

You end up with the store you just saw you don’t have: fast on a phone, and built to stay that way instead of aging out from under you. It also puts you where Spartacus can’t follow, ready for the shoppers arriving through AI assistants instead of search.

The audit is free, and the findings are yours even if the answer is stay.

Three things we look at

Every finding is rated for impact and tied to a specific place in your code.

Performance

Core Web Vitals, bundle size, render-blocking scripts, and why your Lighthouse score has a ceiling you can't push past on Spartacus.

Architecture, from the frontend

The patterns quietly holding you back: SSR-blocking browser API calls, coupled modules, copy-pasted framework code that makes every upgrade harder.

Maintainability

Dead code, inconsistent lazy loading, and the real hiring cost of a stack the market is moving away from.

What you actually get

A report your whole team can act on, not a slide deck. Here's what's in it.

Findings tied to your code

Named files, named components. The sample flags the exact Swiper instance dragging down CLS on the homepage.

Impact ratings on everything

Every issue marked Low, Medium or High, so you know what to fix first and what to defend spending time on.

Two honest paths forward

Fix what you have, or migrate the pages that matter. We show both and let the evidence decide.

A workshop, not a drop-off

We sit with your team to walk the findings and answer questions. The report doesn't gather dust.

Reviewed by SAP Spartacus's original Tech Evangelist

Mateusz Ostafil has spent his whole career inside this exact stack. He was SAP Spartacus Tech Evangelist from version 1.0, the person who made the technology known, ran the first professional trainings on it, and sat in real implementation projects as the subject-matter expert.

  • Tech Evangelist for SAP Spartacus since 1.0
  • A dozen-plus code audits, including a global optical leader, a leading eye-care company, and a well-known beauty retailer
  • Now Senior Developer Advocate at Alokai

He audited enough Spartacus frontends to see where the platform stops. That's what led him to Alokai, and it's why this audit tells you the truth about what you have, not a pitch for what we sell.

Two questions we get before every audit

“What do you need from us?”

A URL or work email to start. On a short call we agree scope and access together, whatever your team is comfortable with. NDA on request, findings shared only with you.

“Why now, when the deadline’s gone?”

Because peak season is a real deadline you set yourself. An audit runs four to eight weeks, and any fix runs longer. The teams that wait a year because the pressure came off will be in the same place next year, minus a year of runway. He’s audited frontends for a global optical leader, a leading eye-care company, and a well-known beauty retailer, and that pattern holds every time.
