#8836 Shopify vs. Magento: Choose the best for your shopping cart.

Posted by alexnguyen on 01 July 2016 - 07:07 AM

Both Magento and Shopify are leading e-commerce website in current years. Each of them is used for different business targets. However, as many experts pointed out, Magento wins in some aspects, which can help online owners and developers to make the right choice. 
 
*Costs:
- Setup fees 
Although charging no fees for setup, Shopify indeed supports a 14-day free trial for web developers and store owners to test the functionalities and features. Meanwhile, Magento is totally free to install and use. 
- Monthly fees 
Shopify offers four different plans with monthly fees ranging from $14 to $179 as follows:
• Starter Plan : $ 14
• Basic Plan : $ 29
• Professional Plan : $79
• Unlimited Plan : $179
With Magento, you’ll have to provide your own hosting, which is available at monthly costs ranging anywhere from $5 to 100s of dollars.
 
*Product features 
Because Magento started out as an open-source web application, it’s more flexible when it comes to customization. There are three things Magento is better at than Shopify: offering your store in multiple languages, providing discount codes and integrating with Ebay. With the more expensive Magento plans, you get the ability to offer your store to users in a several different languages; Shopify does not, at time of writing, currently permit this ‘out of the box’. As for discount codes, both Shopify and Magento offer them, but in the case of Shopify, only on the more expensive plans (Magento offers them as standard). Finally, Magento integrates extremely well with Ebay– you can manage both your Ebay store and your Magento Go store using one control panel.
 
*Marketing:
Magento provides powerful SEO features like SEO friendly URLs, meta info, a Google sitemap and a handy Google Content API for expanding on your SEO customization. Both solutions can integrate with Google Analytics.
Furthermore, Magento supports great deal of built-in promotion options, since you receive features for upselling, promotional pricing, flexible coupons, related products, free shipping, product bundling and more. This feature helps online store owners a lot to push sales quickly with more conversions.
 
Choose Shopify or Magento depends totally on your demands. However, as you can see the experts' recommendation, Magento may give you more chances to improve your business efficiently. If you are owning a Shopify store and intend to transfer data to Magento, you can find out LitExtension service: Shopify to Magento migration tool.

#8812 Preserve SEO URLs By Using OpenCart To Prestashop Migration Tool

Posted by alexnguyen on 29 June 2016 - 04:02 AM

​Today, with the dynamic change of the economy, online business has developed significantly. From that, e-commerce platform has also been improved from time to time. Was originally developed in 1998 by Christopher G. Mann, OpenCart is an online store management system. Whereas Prestashop started in 2005, 7 years later than OpenCart. However, Prestashop has grown very fast and quickly become one of the most popular e-commerce site in the world. Because of the changes from time to time, it is necessary to refresh your business when needed. Many people has changed their interest from OpenCart to Prestashop

Why people prefer OpenCart to Prestashop?

  • Content Management: OpenCart has a fairly solid but simple content management tool for non-product pages within the hosted websites, known as "Information" rather than "Pages" in the administration panel. While PrestaShop content management is very smooth and is a bit less basic than that of its competitor. 
  • Administration Panel: OpenCart's administration panel is very easy-to-use, which doesn't include many dead-ends or odd design decisions that can make simple tasks frustrating, such as having to add a "module number" to a product encoring your own intension. However, the administration panel of PrestaShop is much better than that of the former software, although 
  • Scalability: With the ability to group by manufacture and attribute, OpenCart handles a large amount of products easily. In addition, an OpenCart store for a client has around 1,500 products in it, without any problems on the development server. However, PrestaShop claims that there is no limitation in the quality of products and attributes that can be displayed and sell in their users' store. 

With those reasons, it can be much better for user to decide which one should they use. Now, if you want to transfer from OpenCart to Prestashop, just let LitExtension give you a hand. By putting a lot of effort in designing and testing before released, OpenCart to Prestashop migration software should be concern to the ideal software.

Both Prestashop and Magento are open source and becomes popular e-commerce platform. Depending on users demands, you can choose the most suited one for your online business. Below comparison is one suggestion:
 

Who Should Choose Magento?
Magento is perfect for those looking for full control over the customization of their online store. Wide range of enterprise grow quickly will find the features of Magento a better fit than PrestaShop.
 
Who Should Choose PrestaShop?
Smaller businesses or those not looking to grow quickly will find the user-friendly option of PrestaShop to fit perfectly with their needs. This system makes it easy to keep cost down and you won’t need to invest as much time into setting everything up.
 
 
PRICE
Prestashop is free to download and install basic application on the server, then users can decide what functionality is needed and only pay for the modules they need.
Magento is pretty different with 2 editions. With Magento Community Edition, you also have to pay no fee for charge. In other side, Enterprise Edition of Magento really spends for the biggest players because of its large yearly subscription fee.  
However, the same thing here is the hosting service for long run is not free, in both cases.  Web developers and store owners may have to pay for most of the professional themes, designs and extensions also.
 
INSTALLATION
Because of no available of hosted solution, the installation of Prestashop depends on the host you select for your ecommerce website. If your host offers one-click installation, no technical knowledge requirement to install and vice versa. In general, PrestaShop is easy to understand to set up stores or add products. 
The Magento installation depends on the version you choose. As spending for startups or small-scale enterprises, Magento Go servers seem to be ready to setup and nothing difficult. With Magento Enterprise Edition, it is more complicated with large and multinational corporations.
 
SUPPORT
The two platforms are significantly different when it comes to having questions to answer or problems to solve.
If facing to some problem or any wonders about PrestaShop, users can join online community and discuss with other users or professionals. But it is seldom to get the official supports. Moreover, when coming across a lot of smaller bugs, PrestaShop installation only implies some technical knowledge to suggest you to fix on your own.
Regarding Magento, official supports come with only users choosing expensive Enterprise Edition. With the others, there is a community including a lot of talented and enthusiastic web developers who can be contacted any time on the different online forums.
 
 SEO
Experts point out that even though PrestaShop includes some basic optimization possibilities, Magento is much stronger in the field of SEO with lots of opportunities to attract high traffic to your website.
Be responsive from 2014, Magento is compatible with all platform kinds, which brings user-friendly interface. This point makes Google’s algorithm rank Magento sites in good searching results. PrestaShop now is also mobile- friendly, so SEO in its website is improved completely.
 
FUNCTION
PrestaShop offers over 300 features so becomes powerful ecommerce solution for small business or startups having not too large budget. Besides free software installation, users only have to pay for extra necessary extensions. Free features include:
• Layered navigation 
• Fully customizable templates
• Promotion rules
• Unlimited currencies
• Unlimited product and inventory management
• Analytics and reporting
• Multi-store management
• Return management
In this aspect, features and benefits offered by Magento are similar to PrestaShop with the added advantage that Magento Go is suitable for mobile applications and devices. Magento Go however does not offer gifting options.
Both platforms are open-source code systems, so certainly lots of different plugins and extensions are available. PrestaShop is simpler in installation and handling of the modules, even for the beginners, while you will need an expert with specific competence and experience to support installation modules with Magento.
 
 
In conclusion, hope this comparison can help you have right solution for your business. And if you are owning an unsatisfactory site and wanna transfer to the other, experts recommend you some helpful tools:

#7107 7 REASONS WHY SHOULD DEFINITELY UPGRADE YOUR MAGENTO

Posted by alexnguyen on 02 April 2016 - 04:57 AM

Magento has been a very powerful and fast growing e-Commerce since it was launched in 2007 by Varien. Nowadays, Magento is chosen as a major digital commerce platform by over 200,000 online retailers because of its modular architecture, complete scalability and a wide range of options. Howewer, like many other softwares, Magento always upgrade its present version to become more compatible with users. The question is "SHOULD WE UPGRADE MAGENTO?"

We all believe that the appearance of the latter is the innovation of the previous. Therefore in this article, we will show you 7 reasons why the answer is YES

1. Security Updates

The first reason why we should definitely upgrade Magento version as soon as possible is the security issues. The world of online security is progressing at light speed day by day. Even famous brands such as Adobe, Sony, Amazon and Wal-Mart were all hacked in 2014. Magento has stepped up its default security in the newest version to protect users’ privacy.

What Magento did to patch security gaps:

  • XSS vulnerability while creating configurable product variations was addressed.
  • Information about different orders was not displayed.
  • Changes to PayPal Express checkout.
  • An .swf file was removed from the Magento distribution.
  • File system was secured better.
  • The security of action URLs was enhanced.
  • Vulnerability during checkout was fixed
  • The randomness function was also more secured
2. Responsive Theme Updates

The default Magento theme in the 1.9 version is mobile-responsive which is the best solution for salesman because the site that they invest in is compatible with any device of customers. This means that a shopping cart was design to work on any screen size. With responsive design, it is much more easy for merchants to boost conversion, for mobile-using customers to place an order or checkout anywhere. Moreover, this brings SEO advantages as well. If merchants focus a bit more on the content, this has big implications for SEO also in order to engage customers and reduce bounce rates..

3. Functionality Bug Fixes

Magento has continously added new functionality and bug fixes which will make your website run more smoothly and efficiently. So why don’t you take these advantages?

Specifically, with platform bugs, Magento 1.9 gave fixes on web store and shopping cart, Promotional Price Rule, Administrative Ordering, Invoicing, Credit Memo, Import, Payment Method and many other fixes.

Magento

 

If you need a completely customizable online store, Magento will fulfill your needs. Being a reputation open-source e-commerce software, Magento lets you tailor-make any aspect of your online store and make it work as exactly what you want.

Why do we say that Magento is the best choice for merchants? Because since it was first launched in 2007, it has quickly become one of the most popular carts online with its powerfulness and a rich feature set. Magento also offers plenty of customizations to give you the flexibility to maximize sales and optimize your operations; therefore, it seems to be available to all types of businesses.

Another advantage of Magento we want to mention here is it cost-effectiveness. With two different editions: Community Edition (CE) và Enterprise Edition (EE), Magento offers different types of solutions to fit your business. For small businesses, Magento Community, which is free version, is a great way to get started with. The company also offers Magento Enterprise, which gives you enterprise-level functionality and support to configure your website and back-end workflows.

Prestashop was launched in 2007 and quickly impress users by its decent efficiency, good functionality list and rather simple modification.

It’s especially important for those who are just starting their Internet adventure.

The significant feature of Prestashop is free of cost & open source. We believe that Prestashop is the best choice if you have a tight budget but still want to run on an efficient ecommerce platform.

There are a lot of functionalities built in PrestaShop. Many of them which are no match for Magento are sufficient for beginners and intermediate online shop owners. Prestashop provides extensive feature sets for managing product listing, payments, shipping, manufacturers and suppliers.

 

WooCommerce

 

WooCommerce, which is a free WordPress plugin, is one of the fastest growing shopping carts. This plugin was created in 2011 and is now used by thousands of e-commerce websites worldwide. If you are thinking about creating your own online store, you definitely should give WooCommerce a chance because it does not take very long to install but works great.

Like Prestashop, WooCommerce is completely free to download. Despite being free, WooCommerce offers extensive features out of the box and especially it will not cost you a thing.  All you have to do is download this plugin, and you will have it in just a few minutes. However, it still looks professional. We are sure that customers will be impressed by how organized your online store is and how easy it is to pay for the products.

Moreover, the WooCommerce plugin allows you to build a WordPress-based online store quickly and easily. As a popular shopping-cart software, WooCommerce also gives you unlimited capabilities and endless customization options from a variety of themes and extensions throughout the Web.

 

In conclusion, we suggest Magento, Prestashop and WooCommerce for your website because these outstanding feature. We also know that it is not easy to choose the right shopping cart at the first time especially to the starter. But don’t worry because LitExtension will help you to correct the mistake with shopping cart migration tools.
