Scalable with growth
Magento works for businesses of all sizes, whether small, medium or large, as it can evolve to suit the needs of your business as it grows, meaning you won’t be faced with changing your website and systems down the line. Magento can even support multi-store, multi-currency and multi-language if you decide to start shipping internationally, making it easy to reach global audiences when scaling your business.
User-friendly
The great thing about Magento is that it’s an extremely user-friendly solution for everyone. Both the front-end and back-end are intuitive, making it great for businesses and customers. Once set up the site navigation makes it easy for people to find exactly what they are looking for, which is key to providing a good user experience and converting visitors into paying customers, equally, the content management system makes updating your product catalogue and managing orders hassle-free.
Responsive design
With over half of web traffic coming from mobile, it’s more important than ever that your website is responsive and mobile-friendly, especially when the goal is to convert visitors into buyers. Magento ensures that your website works perfectly on all devices, from mobiles and tablets to desktop computers - you can even customise what each device will see to help improve the user experience and ultimately increase sales.
