What Distinguishes Magento Stores from other platforms?
Magento is an open-source e-commerce platform written in PHP. Its release in 2008 means the company has a decade of innovation and experience in supporting large and small businesses. Powering more than 250,000 live stores on the web, Magento is typically used by companies with an annual online turnover between $1m and $100m. Big names using Magento include Nike, Samsung and Ford.
If this feels alienating to you, don’t worry. Stores with smaller turnovers also do well with Magento. The platform is extremely user-friendly and easily adaptable to fit the needs of your business.
1. Magento gives you full control over your website.
2. Magento has a huge third-party extension selection.
Whilst similar services provide you with the capacity to integrate third-party extensions, the selection is often smaller and more limited. With a huge developer following, the shared knowledge is reflected in a huge and diverse catalogue of plug-ins and extensions. There is a large portfolio of free products available, so even a company with a limited budget can find a suitable extension for their website.
3. Magento Evolves Alongside Your Business.
Magento has a modular architecture, which means you can instantly increase the size of your store without sacrificing website performance. The same thing works for servers: the ability to apply quick changes to your store without any downtime is a huge advantage to using Magento.

But I already have a store on another platform…
If you’re convinced that Magento would be a better fit for your business, don’t worry; it’s never too late to migrate.
Our team offers you stress-free, smooth migration to Magento from any other platform. If you’re happy with how it looks, we can switch your store to a Magneto interface without disrupting the design of your store. Or, if you want us to create entirely new design for your store, we can implement both at the same time.
Migrating a store over to Magento is something we do a lot, and in seven stages:
- Identification of your goals and requirements.
- Development of new design or redesign.
- Product import.
- Migration of customer, orders and other relevant data.
- Core features rebuild.
- Advanced SEO setup.
- Relaunch of your website.
If you need to migrate from Magento 1 to Magento 2, we also can do it for you. Find out more about this service here.
