Magento - The de facto standard for open source e-commerce

Jan 7, 2008 Author: Gio | Filed under: Magento, eCommerce

Quote from a recent Magento Forum post:

I have been working with ecommerce software for quite sometime. I am very impressed with Magento. I believe it will become the de facto standard for open source e-commerce software … it is so well done and does so many things right. I wanted to post a ‘congrats’ and ‘thank you’ to all responsible. I look forward to contributing what I can to this incredible project!

Developers of Magento today listed top 5 Magento features that they fave most, those appear to be:

Layered Navigation
Multiple site control from a single admin interface
Multiple themes and design flexibility
Catalog and Shopping Cart price rules (Magento’s rule-based pricing system)
Checkout Process - single page checkout and multiple ship-to addresses functionality

There is nothing more to say and I totally agree with that. We´re testing Magento for more than six month and we´re absolutely impressed. Magento will be the benchmark for open source e-commerce software in the near future. Well done, Varien.
