In the Spring of 2017 Magento creatrors announced that by the end of 2018  support for its 1.x platforms will end.  It was officially announced that November 18th is the date when we all say “Goodbye” to Magento 1 and welcome Magento 2. While End-of-life (EOL) warranty will be provided until 2021, migration to Magento 2 should have started as soon as possible.

But after receiving many complains from various online business holders, Magento stopped this mandatory migration and will continue support for its 1.x platforms. Anyway, Magento 2 has way more advantages and can be adapted even better to the needs of e-commerce businesses. 

While many merchants still think that Magento 1.x versions are similar to Magento 2, developers declare that Magento 2 is essentially a different platform. Magento 2 is based on new coding structures and database architecture, which makes this platform much more efficient. To keep up with the pace of both technology and e-commerce, migration is the best choice for all previous Magento stores. 

Given all this, what are the key concerns for Magento merchants? The upgrading procedure for the platform isn’t quite simple and could take a few months to complete. Let’s look at the key points.

Why?

The new Magento version is more efficient, up-to-date and well adapted for your e-commerce business needs. It will supported by new updates and versions with brand new modules. 

When?

To reduce all unnecessary risk it is important to re-platform to Magento 2 and it’s a perfect time for starting negotiations.

How long?

The time of upgrade depends on the complexity of the store and the extensions you are using. You’ll also need to ensure that the transition doesn’t impact on your site’s SEO.

Magento 2 has been recently approved and recommended by such e-commerce merchants as Osprey, Helly Hansen, Cycle Republic and others not only because of extended feature list but also for outstanding performance. Mobile-friendliness, customization, fantastic SEO, easy and fast checkout, vigorous admin management capacity and full page cache – these are only a few advantages of Magento 2.

There is no better time for this Magento migration than 2018. Our free link to TOP 8 questions about Magento migration might help you to choose the best strategy for re-platforming your online store. 

The evolution of Magento platform provides a chance to enhance your online store and enter the new era of e-commerce.
