For years, Magento has been a dominant force within the e-commerce industry, but it’s not without reason. Magneto has more benefits than other cart solutions, making it an obvious choice for so many businesses operating online. Magento’s benefits include: A Comprehensive Set of Out-of-the-box Features As compared to other e-commerce solutions, Magento is packed with useful out-of-the-box features and functionality, making it faster and easier to program, and more effective for end users. Plus, Magento is continually evolving, introducing new innovations, advances and updates. Open Source (aka Free) Because of its open source code, Magento is a cost-effective option that is free to download and easy for programmers to customize. Cleaner Code through Extensions Magento programmers must use extensions to custom the core code (as opposed to using a bunch of plug-ins). So now instead of doing a bunch of work-arounds to the plug-ins needed for a complex site, Magento’s code allows for better security and cleaner code, which is easier to update in the long-run. User-friendly Admin Interface Magento has by far the best admin user interface of any of shopping cart solution. This is especially helpful for business owners with less technical expertise, who are responsible for updating their own sites. Magento makes it easy with streamlined data management. Overall, Magento has proven to be a real win for ecommerce sites over the past 4 years it’s been around. With the launch of Magento’s mobile e-comm platform, businesses can really get a leg up on the competition. Website Jungle has built many Magento-based websites for clients in New York City, New Jersey and the surroundings areas.
