Magento has held the number 1 spot on the internet retailer list for 4 years in a row.
It powers 0.7% of the entire internet which means 12% of eCommerce sites.
Over 250,000 sites use Magento.
Magento is so popular that the word "Magento" has been searched on Google even more than the word "eCommerce".
Community Edition and Enterprise Edition is the naming for the old Magento version - one is free and the other a paid version. However, Magento 1 was retired completely in June 2020 and with Magento 2 being released at the end of 2015, Magento 1 hadn't seen any active development since then. While some do still use Community and Enterprise to refer to the Magento 2 versions - it's Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce now
This powerful eCommerce platform is built on open source technology and provides online merchants an adaptable shopping cart system, with control over the design, content production and online store functionality. Not forgetting clever marketing, search engine optimization (SEO) and catalogue-management tools.
Magento Open Source is completely free. You can easily install or use any version of Magento Open Source you want.
The paid version of Magento is Adobe Commerce and it gives store owners access to custom features and functionality within the eCommerce platform.
Magento eCommerce is designed to be managed by those with no developer knowledge and the Magento community is helpful. However, a developer is highly recommended to get the best out of the platform and will allow you to install new extensions plus create new, or customise existing functionality.
Adobe Resources, previously known as Magento U, enables developers to learn all things Magento.
