Development costs are influenced by both the duration of the project and the complexity of the functionality to be implemented. Typical projects take from 6 months and involve the work of 1 front-end and 2 back-end developers. The length of custom Magento development projects starts from one year and requires ongoing performance optimization. Mind that the exact estimate depends on the company you pick for Magento development but expect to spend $50+/per hour for offshore Magento developers at a company like Geomotiv.

Magento is the best solution for certain types of companies, and its use cases aren’t universal. Surely, it is more flexible than any other out-of-the-box solution, and it can scale along with the business. Magento’s powerful features make it perfect for larger, enterprise-level businesses or those with great plans for an existing online store.
Magento is more complex than entry-level solutions like Shopify or BigCommerce. Such platforms have a simple interface and setup, which make them a good choice for eCommerce beginners. For more developed stores, it is better to go with Magento.

Magento 2 is the latest version of the leading eCommerce platform, which has replaced the original Magento 1. Its features are similar to those of its predecessor, with a number of significant improvements. Magento 2 demonstrates enterprise-grade scalability and performance, featuring faster load times compared to the initial version. It has also become more mobile-friendly and offers an engaging and personalized shopping experience on any device. Magento 2 also comes with revamped checkout, diverse payment options, an improved product section, and increased security measures.

Adobe, Magento’s parent company, sunset the version 1 in June 2020. The company no longer takes responsibility for maintaining the store’s security and PCI compliance. That is why those who run an existing Magento website have to deal with Magento 1’s end-of-life process and migrate to the latest version. As a Magento 2 development company with years of expertise, we facilitate your migration journey without any data loss and minimal downtime.

The Open Source offering (formerly Community edition) is available for free and comes with a set of standard features allowing merchants to set up multiple stores, manage inventory, track orders, shipments, and much more. To extend the store’s functionality, merchants resort to Magento 2 development services that enable custom themes, modules, and add-ons. With the right Magento web developer, this edition can easily compete with other offerings and other enterprise platforms.
Magento 2 Commerce edition (earlier known as Enterprise edition) is a paid solution focused on corporate and enterprise-level clients. The platform comes with rich out-of-the-box functionality, unlimited customization, and seamless third-party integrations. The package goes with Magento-provided maintenance and support as opposed to the Open Source version.

Open source platforms give the freedom to modify the source code and make any configuration adjustments as per business needs. They also enable technology agility and help to avoid vendor lock-in. An open-source eCommerce platform can help companies stay within budget, start small and then extend the store’s functionality step-by-step.
A great advantage of open source platforms is that they receive much support from the developer community. Magento is arguably one of the most outstanding examples of a community-led solution – thousands of contributors enrich the ecosystem every day. This helps to receive the community-provided updates and critical fixes faster and add new features that address particular business requirements.

Yes! Magento drives expansion to international markets with built-in support for local currencies, payment methods, languages, and tax rates. The platform supports accented characters and right-to-left text by default. Apart from that, Magento enables store compliance with the EU GDPR so that you can cater to a broader audience.

There are multiple aspects to take into account when determining the exact price of Magento 2 development services:
– Platform version
– Hosting options
– Level of customization
– Number of themes and extensions
– Custom development of your Magento project
– In-house or third-party support and maintenance.
