What is Adobe Commerce (Magento Commerce)?
It was originally developed as an open-source eCommerce content management solution by Varien, Inc. Varien was acquired by eBay in 2012. Magento Open Source (formerly Community Edition) is still available for developers and tech-savvy merchants. Adobe also offers small business and mid-enterprise level solutions that offer cloud services and integrations for business intelligence and order management tools.
Visitor data is used to segment customers and personalize the shopping experience with targeted promotions, suggestions and coupons. Sites generate SEO-friendly URLs, a Google site map, and customized meta tags to help products get discovered. Site-wide or segmented and targeted recommendations are generated from rule-based product-relations logic, to increase up-sells and cross-sells, and interactive features including "likes" and tweets allow visitors to broadcast their choices and create buzz around products.
The paid versions of Adobe Commerce are extensive and include product integrations such as business intelligence, order management, and an extensions marketplace.

(26-40 of 40)One of the best solutions for stable ecommerce
- Stock management (if implemented with custom fields for location).
- Transactional emails. Really well done and easy to config.
- Access to data and accountancy.
- Difficulty in creating plugin from scratch.
- Difficulty to implement external technology (like ReactJS).
- Out of the box stock management could be improved.
Magento: Your best option for an e-commerce platform
- Great adaptability with a variety of POS/CRM systems.
- Great open source community that supported questions, themes, and more.
- Able to support and organize a large amount of content.
- Easy to find and design modern content.
- More information regarding platform updates. Recently moved to a 2.0 and there is much that needs to be transitioned.
- Easier integration of customer order notification feature.
- Simpler, reliable security integrations with CloudFlare.
- Simpler importing for new products. A lot of back-end cleanup is required.
Magento from an agency's perspective
- With Enterprise the page caching and speed is much better.
- Plentiful e-commerce functionality of of the box. Being and e-comm platform it really covers all the standard use cases well.
- The use of content blocks and includes in the content areas makes it easy to create global assets and modules.
- The ability to create a page builder UI for marketing pages is non existent and for non technical users it is impossible.
- The need for blogging/news and events is common and any/all modules for this type of content really cant compete with other platforms and usually require the installation of another platform to manage this content.
Magento is a GREAT Choice
- Magento handles product data very well.
- It's able to handle publishing content just as well as publishing products.
- It handles a lot of complex store, coupon, and shipping rules for operations and fulfillment needs.
- I would like to see updates be easier to do with less difficulty.
- I would like to see more rules with coupons.
- I would like to see complex rules around recurring payments.
Magento - the ins and outs, and ups and downs
- Being able to pull product data from our SAP system and upload to Magento with little reworking makes keeping catalogs up to date relatively easy.
- It's really easy to customise Magento for our customers across different countries which is key during their purchase experience.
- There is a huge range of add-ons - if Magento can't handle something out the box, there's bound to be an add-on ready and waiting.
- It would be nice to see more in depth and accurate reporting.
Magneto review from a Project Manager
- Ease of product management
- Ease of reporting and range of reporting tools
- Fast build time
- Range of payment gateway options
- Security support for older systems
Magento Simple and Functional
- Website organization
- Stock management
- Very organized and categorized
- Allows for very detailed and organized product page creation
- Only limited things that can be changed or edited
- Needs to have more options available
- Have to be able to make connections with other market places easly
Magento is the only eCommerce solution you will ever need.
- User friendly interface. Very easy to start using Magento right out of the box.
- Lots of useful free and paid extensions. Lots of free themes to differentiate your business.
- Scalability. Magento can be used for a store of 10 products and 10,000 products.
- Re-indexing can use some improvement. It still take a long time.
- Some features such as one page checkout, no PO box shipping, or ability to edit a cart in admin view without creating a duplicate order should be standard by now.
- Better fraud detection features would make it even stronger.
MagentoGo is dead. Long live Magento
- Lots of features that allow it to compete with the biggest platforms out there.
- The marketplace usually has a few dozen suppliers of each non-standard feature you could want.
- Lots of people know how to use Magento now
- MagentoGo has been retired as of 2015 but we saw this coming and were already in the process of moving
- Updates and 3rd party compatibility has always been a problem historically
- Lot's of people will tell you that Magento is slow and a drain on server resources but I've seen some very quick examples so optimisation is key.
Affordable, full featured platform for companies willing to trade some site speed for flexibility
- Open source allows for complete flexibility & customization
- Large library of extensions provide an easy & inexpensive way to "plug & play" with additional features & functionality.
- Due to the large user base, there are hundreds of forums where people discuss ideas & trouble shooting for Magento
- Magento is slower than other comparable platforms, especially during checkout.
- Technical support included in the Enterprise plan is generally slow to respond, and not very helpful.
- Magento doesn't allow import/export of category data which means all edits have to be done manually.
- Magento doesn't have a great CMS for content pages (Customer Service, Company Page, Other Resources). This type of content has to be loaded in HTML blocks in a library, and they the blocks have to each be assigned to the pages(categories) manually. The library is sorted by creation date, so it is a pain to scroll through a very long list to find/edit blocks. It would make a lot more sense if there were multiple HTML fields for each page (category) that could be used to populate content directly into the page.
Magento Enterprise - Enterprise Class, Affordable Price Point
- Multi-Site Implementation - Magento Enterprise has the ability to filter and manage content, customers, and products for multiple sites within one instance and admin panel. This gives online merchants a great deal of flexibility and functionality to target multiple markets with a relatively low cost of ownership
- Customer Segmentation - Within Magento Enterprise's marketing engine there is a great deal of flexibility in the ability to slice and dice customers by their behaviors and purchase history
- Flexibility and Extend-ability - Magento Enterprise implementation of the software and open source nature gives it a great deal of flexibility
- Breadth of Features - Magento Enterprise has a incredibly wide range of features and, although the depth of the features themselves is not incredibly complex, Magento's flexibility allows for some pretty extensive customizations within its framework
- Low Cost of Ownership - Magento Enterprise license is at a relatively low price-point given the number of features present in the system out of the box
- Module Marketplace Quality - There are way too many malfunctioning and improperly implemented modules (both theme and Magento Functionality) on Magento's Marketplace
- Company Immaturity - Magento, although owned by Ebay, is a bit immature as an organization. There has been a great deal of turnover since the acquisition and their ability to support their product, at times, has been suspect. (i.e. the 1.13 issues)
- Partner Quality - This item is much, much, better than years passed, but Magento's explosive growth has spawned a great deal of professionals looking to simply capitalize on a hot market rather that provide a quality good or service. That being said, Magento has been working on improving this piece and there have definitely been some noticeable enhancements in this regard
- Easy integration with popular payment systems like Paypal (both companies are owned by eBay)
- Powerful sales / promotion / pricing engine
- Lots of features out of the box
- Community edition which has most features of the enterprise edition is free
- Trying to customize Magento functionality requires in-depth knowledge of the platform
- Magento does not support more complex internal review processes / publishing workflows
- Magento is more b2c focused, implementing b2b models can be challenging
- Some features like gift registry or compare functionality are not very sophisticated
Magento
- Very cost effective solution
- Great functionality
- Great business user tools
- Lightweight OMS functionality
- Scalability used to be a huge concern, but less so in 2014
- Extensions are a great concept, but governance is needed to make it less trail and error
- Not a ton of support for the software, but again, it is very cost effective you can't expect everything. Also, eBay should be helping soon too.
Low TCO & Great Results for B2C Commerce
- It's open source, very easy to extend capabilities and many extensions/add-on modules are available for a low cost.
- Total cost of ownership is low compared to commercial off the shelf ecommerce packages.
- Many useful out of the box features. Content administration is easy to learn for end users.
- Cost can start to add up if you need to scale the environment horizontally. If you are on the enterprise version you need to license each vm/server in the load balanced environment.
- Add to cart and proceed to checkout code could be optimized to increase response time when promotion codes are used.
- HTML editor could be improved for non technical content writers.
Great e-commerce CMS
- Ability to manage the look and feel easily.
- Ability to manage products, and do do mass product updates, etc. For example, if we want to change the price of a particular line, we can open up a master product file containing all the product data for that line. We can then update a CDV file with the new pricing data and map the new prices correctly to the appropriate skus. This is a huge time saver.
- Easy integrations with almost any third-party software product.
- Nothing.
