What do you like best about Magento Open Source?
Magento Open Source offers extensive configuration options and lots of cart functionality out of the box. Once configured you will find that the default themes and flows are adequate for pushing cart sales and directing your customer through the process to a successful transaction. I have also found that the cart runs very well on hardware spec that are less than recommended and lower cost cloud servers work well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Magento Open Source?
Theming, or even making small changes to the look and feel of the site require an extensive knowledge of web technologies. While updates and security patches are frequent, I have found that installing the patches to be a hassle with a high failure rate as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magento Open Source?
Magento's open source version is free to download install and customize., saving you money especially if you know a bit of html and php. Like all "open source" shopping carts, you own and control the complete code on your own hosting account, and are free to do whatever you'd like with it, change it in any way that you can image. Download other developers' "ad ons", read, learn, and understand many ways to customize your shopping cart website to your own liking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Magento Open Source?
The support for the open source version is lacking. Although the user base is very large, the quality of the user base comments and replies you get might not be as easy to obtain, understand, or replicate the exact same issue in the same way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike really, I think CSV's can be a bit troublesome when listing a lot of products but with Magento 2 due next year, this will be an even better tool, I would reccomend this for anybody building an e-commence website - professional and for large companies to use.

It can be quite difficult to customize the store exactly to meet your needs. The front end is very flexbile, but it is more complex than other e-commerce solutions. Also, it is not the fastest e-commerce platform. It needs a dedicated server to run on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
