Overall Satisfaction with Magento Open Source

In our company, as system integrators, we often encounters customer with a Magento eCommerce. The best part of this software solution is that, since it's completely modular and we usually do not develop the entire website, we can still however work on our projects (usually integrations with third party systems or data import/export) by working on specific modules we can then deliver to our customers.
  • Modularity
  • Great Community
  • Updates
  • Very step learning curve
  • If not using it headless, the frontend uses old technologies
  • The first setup can be problematic
Magento is perfect for large scale eCommerces with various degree of complexity, like multicountry invocing/taxes, different currencies, a big catalogue with a lot of configurable products. Due to it's high customization capabilitis, it's also perfect if you have any specific need which is not covered by more "simple" eCommerce solutions.

Overall Satisfaction Continued

  • Modularity helps development
  • Developers with knowledge of the platform are required to work on it
  • Better if used headless with a custom frontend (has lots of APIs)
Magento is completely open source, this means that you can customize it 100% on your needings.
