Wat is het verschil tussen een Adobe Commerce & Magento Open Source?

Magento en Adobe Commerce zijn nauw verwant, maar er zijn enkele verschillen tussen de twee die voornamelijk voortkomen uit hun evolutie en positionering in de markt. Magento, in zijn Community Edition, is een open-source platform dat geschikt is voor kleinere bedrijven die op zoek zijn naar een flexibele en kostenefficiënte e-commerce oplossing. Adobe Commerce, daarentegen, is een premium, cloud-gebaseerde versie van Magento, ontworpen voor grotere bedrijven die behoefte hebben aan uitgebreide functionaliteiten, verbeterde ondersteuning en naadloze integratie met andere Adobe producten.

Voor welk type bedrijven is een Magento webshop geschikt?

Magento is ideaal voor kleine tot middelgrote bedrijven die een aanpasbare en schaalbare e-commerce oplossing zoeken zonder hoge kosten. Het is ook geschikt voor bedrijven die hun webshop volledig willen beheren en aanpassen.

Is Magento veilig voor mijn e-commerce website?

Ja, Magento neemt veiligheid serieus en biedt regelmatig updates en patches om de beveiliging van uw webshop te waarborgen. Het is echter belangrijk om goede beveiligingspraktijken te volgen, zoals regelmatige updates en het gebruik van beveiligde hosting omgevingen.

Magento Open Source of Adobe Commerce Cloud?.

Which system is ‘the best for the job’? The difference lies in functionality and support. Are you going for Adobe Commerce Cloud yourself or will you let a hosting specialized partner take care of it? What is the goal of your online business? Are you a brand or manufacturer operating in different countries with various catalogs, countries, and currencies? Or are you a wholesale company that needs a Magento B2B webshop/portal to meet all sorts of customer-specific needs such as pricing, payment agreements, (white label) assortments, and more?

We believe in the power of Magento Open Source. And if you find yourself short on functionality, there are plenty of extension modules available or we may have already built a solution before.

Responsive layout

If your webshop does not work well on mobile devices, customers will quickly become frustrated and leave your online store. A responsive layout ensures that your customers are always satisfied and that you do not miss out on potential sales. Furthermore, Google has indicated that they rank websites with a responsive layout higher in their search results.

Responsive layout

Filters & attributes

A successful webshop revolves around providing the best user experience to customers. A crucial aspect of this is having well-functioning filters and attributes. These features allow customers to quickly and easily find what they are looking for, which keeps them on your website longer and makes them more likely to make a purchase.

Discounts & vouchers

Working with discount codes and vouchers in online shops is a great way to attract and retain customers. Magento online shops have an extensive range of options for you as a shop owner to increase customer loyalty and revenue.

SEO optimization

The goal of SEO optimization is to ensure that your webshop ranks high in the search results of search engines like Google. This means that potential customers can find you more easily and the chance of conversions is therefore greater. There are various aspects you need to consider when optimizing your webshop for SEO.

Here are some important tips:
Keyword analysis: Identify relevant keywords that are related to the products or services you offer. Then use these keywords strategically in the content of your webshop, including titles, meta-tags, and descriptions.

Technical optimization: Ensure that your webshop is technically sound. This includes improving loading times, using a mobile-friendly design, optimizing the URL structure, and resolving any technical issues that may affect the performance of your webshop.

Quality content: Create valuable, relevant, and unique content for your webshop. For example, product descriptions, blog articles, or customer reviews. Make sure that this content is search engine friendly by strategically placing keywords and providing added value to your visitors. Link building: Increase the authority and credibility of your webshop by building quality backlinks. This can be achieved by collaborating with other relevant websites, participating in guest blogging, or sharing valuable content via social media.

SEO optimization

Core Web Vitals

Core Web Vitals consist of three specific factors: Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). These metrics measure loading speed, interactivity, and visual stability of your website, respectively. A good score in these areas can positively influence your website's ranking.

To optimize your webshop for Core Web Vitals, there are several steps you can take. First, it's important to thoroughly test your website with tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or Lighthouse. These tools provide insights into which elements need improvement. Some generic optimizations include reducing server response time, minimizing CSS and JavaScript files, removing unused code, and compressing images.

By using caching and combining files, the loading time of your website can also be improved. Additionally, it is advisable to use a powerful hosting platform, such as a dedicated server, which provides sufficient resources for optimal web speed. Implementing a content delivery network (CDN) can also help improve performance by delivering your content faster to visitors around the world.

Core Web Vitals

Full page (varnish) caching

With full page caching, pages are stored in memory so they can be loaded at lightning speed when visitors open your webshop. This means that the server is less burdened and your webshop responds faster. The benefits are enormous: higher conversion rates, lower bounce rates, and a better user experience.

Full page (varnish) caching

Elastic search (searching and filtering)

A good search functionality is essential in the world of e-commerce. Customers want to quickly and easily find products that meet their specific needs. With an elastic search feature in your Magento webshop, you can meet these expectations and strengthen your competitive position.

Thanks to the high speed and accuracy of elastic search, your customers can find what they are looking for more quickly, making them satisfied and more likely to continue buying from you.
