Magento Consulting

The Most Customizable E-commerce Platform

Magento is well-suited for complex e-commerce installations. If you need to integrate with external ERP, marketing or CRM systems, Magento has robust import, export and event-driven integration points, both out-of-the-box and as plugins. Magento is also the most programmable e-commerce platform available, with a large and active community of developers creating extensions for it. This large community and quality documentation also means that, if no extension exists for your particular need, it’s easy to find experienced Magento developers to build a solution for your own custom needs.

If your products are configurable, Magento offers several ways to implement CPQ (configure / price / quote) functionality. Product variations are baked right in, and these configurable products can be set up to cover the majority of use cases. However, for highly customizable products, there are third-party Magento CPQ extension and integrations such as Threekit (https://www.threekit.com/ecommerce-platform-integration/magento-product-configurator) that are available right on the Magento marketplace.

B2C eCommerce

Magento excels at B2C e-commerce, with extensive marketing integrations out-of-the-box, expecially on the paid Commerce Edition. Collect email addresses to build a mailing list, provide real-time shipping quotes, customize tax rates and process all common payment methods with just a few clicks. Custom discounts, coupon codes, banners and complex promotional configurations are all possible with Magento — no other platform comes close to Magento’s breadth of features.

B2B eCommerce

If your site focuses on business to business transactions, Magento also has you covered. Here there is a divergence between the Community Edition and the paid Commerce Edition. Out-of-the-box, Adobe Commerce (the enterprise version of Magento) includes a B2B module that provides a comprehensive set of B2B features, such as quick order, order-by-SKU, and company accounts.

However, these features can be added to the Community Edition through the use of mature extensions from well-known vendors such as AheadWorks, Amasty and MagePlaza. For a few hundred dollars, you can add a comparable set of B2B features to your self-hosted Community Edition installation.

Business Intelligence

Magento integrates with Adobe’s own Magento Business Intelligence (MBI) platform out-of-the-box. This is an incredible tool to get both fine-grained insight and big-picture trends from your e-commerce data.

There also excellent connectors available to connect Magento to your business intelligence platform of choice. For example, connecting Google Data Studio to Magento can be done through mature integrations, or you can expose your Magento data through an ODBC connector for use in the BI tool of your choice.
