However, a few months back (September 2018) they announced that Magento 1, both Community and Enterprise editions, will no longer receive maintenance, security\u00a0and updates after June 2020.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-793 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nethues.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Magento-Tweet.png\" alt=\"Magento Tweet\" width=\"580\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nethues.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Magento-Tweet.png 558w, https:\/\/www.nethues.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Magento-Tweet-300x180.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Initially released in 2014, Magento 1.9 is\/was adored by innumerable\u00a0businesses. Though the ones who are still excelling on their current Magento 1 implementations\u00a0might be saddened by the news, luckily, you still have a good amount of time to make a business plan and execute\u00a0for maximum gains and ROI.<\/p>\n<p>However, this certainly includes a schedule for migration to Magento 2 and upgrading your website.\u00a0Before June 2020 kicks in, your business should be ready for the transition and accept it in the most phenomenal way.<\/p>\n<h5><strong><b>Impact &amp; Solution<\/b><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>With Magento ending support for Magento 1, the impact is certainly going to be massive. Merchants using the platform have to find a way out in order to operate seamlessly. Here are the two possible solutions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Migrating To Another Platform<\/li>\n<li>Migrating To Magento 2<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Let\u2019s explore both :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Migrating To Another Platform<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The thought itself sounds evocative.<\/p>\n<p>Migrating from Magneto to some other eCommerce platform is inviting a group of problems. Along with consuming ample amount of time, it can lead to data mishandling, losing search engine ranking, high costs to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, you won\u2019t be able to enjoy Magento benefits like multi-language\u00a0support or a product builder &#8211; since hardly any other platform offers these. Thus, this option seems purposeless.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Migrating To Magento 2<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This sounds pretty amazing!<\/p>\n<p>The countdown to 2020 can be seen as an exciting chance to explore the comprehensive set of new features, performance improvements and security enhancements provided by the Magento 2 platform.\u00a0A\u00a0number of newly built eCommerce sites are being developed using Magento 2, marking an important benchmark for competitive edge.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, a huge number of development companies offer impeccable, safe and affordable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nethues.com\/adobe-magento-migration\">Magento 2 migration <\/a>services &#8211; you just got to choose the right one. Here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Magento 2 has in-store some of the most astounding features including: \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Ajax Cart<\/b><\/strong>: Using javascript to add items to the shopper\u2019s cart without reloading the entire page, Magento 2 Ajax cart helps in reducing the load on hosting hardware and results in a more responsive experience for your shoppers.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Cache<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>:\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>Magento 2 brings improved caching system including native support for caching technologies like Varnish, a popular HTTP accelerator. The caching systems store frequently accessed page elements and serve them up faster to your visitors.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Faster <\/b><\/strong><strong><b>S<\/b><\/strong><strong><b>earch:\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>Boasting search improvements, Magento 2 allows\u00a0customers in finding your products quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Smarter Product Creation:\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0The new product creation tools allow you to quickly and accurately add products to your store\u00a0&#8211; up to 4 times faster than Magento 1.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Improved Data Filtering:\u00a0<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0With a robust data grid view, Magento 2 gives you the ability to customize the shown attributes. This leads to clean interfaces and helps you to see the desired data.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>Simultaneous Admins:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Magento 1 was designed for a single admin user. For larger sites that might have multiple admins, this was a huge productivity drain. However, Magento 2 has safeguards that allow multiple administrators to work on product data simultaneously, allowing you to easily keep your store\u2019s products up to date.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>PHP 7:<\/b><\/strong>\u00a0Magento is built using the programming language PHP. Magento 2 is optimized for PHP 7, which means superior performance to previous PHP versions.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from these, mobile-friendliness, improved navigation, product videos, easy upgrades also form a part of the benefits and advantages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br \/>\nAmongst the two options, the latter seems advantageous and feasible. Whilst Magento support will be available for the few months, we advise you to invest effort in the migration to a newer platform, sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since Adobe acquired Magento in May\u00a02018, announcements about their future plans for the platform have been scarce.
