What is Magento 2

Adobe Magento - the best ecommerce platform

Magento 2 is the best open-source content management system for e-commerce websites, and it was created in 2007. We think it is the best online open-source shopping platform nowadays.

In May 2018, Adobe announced that it would acquire Magento for $1.68 billion and integrate it into Adobe Experience Cloud, its Enterprise CMS platform. The acquisition was finalized on June 19, 2018.

Magento Market Share

According to research conducted by aheadWorks in 2017, Magento’s market share among the 30 most popular e-commerce platforms is about second place, 19-25% ( per segment). Shopify is the leader now( especially for small shops).

  • Magento stores increased by 4.5% quarter-over-quarter in 2022 Q4
  • Magento has been listed as 1 of the ten leading E-commerce platforms worldwide for 2021.
  • More than 270,000 merchants choose the Magento platform for their business.
  • Most Magento users are in the US, with 59,739 websites on Magento 1 and 35,906 on Magento 2.
  • Currently, Magento powers 1.2% of websites on the Internet.
  • Magento handles $155 billion (USD) worth of transactions each year.

This is why our customers choose Magento 2 for their shopping platform and the Digideo e-commerce agency to build, develop, and expand their eCommerce businesses.

The Problems We Solve

Problem 1: Technical eCommerce Challenges

Running an eCommerce business on Magento can feel overwhelming, especially for companies without a dedicated technical team. From site crashes to inefficient integrations with CRMs and marketing tools, companies can lose sales and face frustrated customers.

– End goal: A seamless, fully operational eCommerce platform that runs smoothly and efficiently, allowing you to focus on growing your business, not fixing tech issues.

Problem 2: Inefficient Manual Processes

Many eCommerce businesses struggle with manual workflows, spending hours on repetitive tasks like managing customer interactions or marketing campaigns. This can lead to inefficiencies, lost opportunities, and slower growth.

– End goal: Full automation of repetitive tasks, freeing up time for business owners and employees to focus on high-impact initiatives like customer acquisition and product development.

Problem 3: Lack of a Clear Growth Strategy

Without a clear eCommerce strategy, businesses often hit a plateau, unable to scale beyond a certain point.

– End goal: A customized, data-driven growth strategy that increases sales, boosts conversions, and strengthens customer loyalty.

In addition to consulting for migrating/upgrading to Magento, I also provide a consultancy and guidance around generally getting more from the platform in terms of the native feature-set, extensions, and integrating with third parties, especially CRMs, ERP ( like Zoho Inventory, Sage 50/100, Agile CRM, Salesforce), marketing automation tools ( Mailchimp, Zoho CRM, Salesmanago, Agile CRM, Sumo, Nosto), planning large pieces of development work and helping to manage the project. I also help with requirements gathering and running RFPs.
