Magento – the new feature-rich eCommerce platform built on open-source technology that provides online merchants with unprecedented flexibility and control over the look, content and functionality of their e Commerce store – is now one years old.
Magento’s philosophy is completely different from other e commerce platforms as Magento has been projected from a Marketing and Communication vision.
For this reason the whole of Magento’s structure is completely marketing oriented and it is full of features about marketing, search engine optimization, catalog-management tools to give merchants the power to create sites that are tailored to their unique business needs.
In my opinion Magento’s birth represents a very important step in e commerce field due to its own vision based no more on technical aspects and coding, but on the real needs of customers and retailers that consist in marketing features in order to enhance users in their on line shopping experiences.
