The tool is very user-friendly and easy to use, it has multiple features in it which makes it a powerful tool. For me, the "Cart Price rules" and "Discount condition" modules have helped me a lot in creating and managing multiple coupon codes at scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool sometimes becomes slow and laggy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magento Open Source solving and how is that benefiting you?

With the help of the Category feature under the Catalog Module in the Magento tool. It is easier for us to create multiple categories and subcategories for a particular product type which was difficult to manage while using the previous tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magento Open Source?

Was using Magento in 2006 1.xx days and it really, really great. Very robust and dependable... couldn't ask for more, But when eBay bought it and went to the 2.xx foundation it was a complete disaster, nothing was compatible and for me to make the move to 2.xx would have been insanely costly. I ended up switching to WooCommerce and I've been happy, but miss the versatility of Magento. I've used 2.xx in other appications with Adobe at the helm, and it's good, but won't make the leap until i'm forced to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magento Open Source?

It can be costly if you need outside plugins, Seems like Magento developers think they're mightier than god and charge like it. If you don't need anything outside of a base install, you'll be ok. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magento Open Source solving and how is that benefiting you?

It was a great solution until a forced upgrade made me move to WooCommerce Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a very steep learning curve with Magento, and software engineers experienced with Magento are an expensive resource. Unless managed well, costs can spiral, and the result will be dismal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Magento positions itself as a solution for small to medium-sized companies but can also scale to corporate sized companies too, but it requires a well rounded and knowledgable engineering team behind it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Magento Open Source?

The fact that this is open source and the list of extensions is endless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Magento Open Source?

Finding the right extension for your business can be a bit of a challenge. The extensions can sometimes be quite expensive and there are certain features that require an extension but should have been in the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Magento Open Source solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use the platform to run our backend e-commerce operations and it has proved to be an able ally with everything. With Adobe's acquisition, the platform has gotten rid of some of it's quirks and been replaced with reliability and predictability. The open source nature can be useful as you continue building upon the stack but can become binding in the long run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
