Founded out of Santa Monica initially as Ongo Works back in 2013, Reaction Commerce’s “platform as a service” (PaaS) gives retailers tools covering catalog, product, inventory management, merchandising, payments, processing, and everything in between. The company’s paid offering is essentially an end-to-end platform for deploying and hosting shops and marketplaces; however, anyone can also gain full access to the Reaction Commerce codebase to customize and extend to their own needs.
