2Introduction
- Magento is an ecommerce platform built on open
source technology which provides online merchants
with a flexible shopping cart system, as well as
control over the look, content and functionality
of their online store. - Shopify is a commerce platform that allows anyone
to set up an online store and sell their products.
3Shopify Pros
- Tons of beautiful responsive store themes to
choose. - Great app store for extending the functionality
of your website. - Pretty good customer support
- Easy to use
- Lots of checkout and payment options
- Large community of dedicated fans
4Inventory Management
- Shopify isnt designed for big online stores as
it lacks some advanced features. you can always
integrate apps to add features like promotional
sell-offs, discounts for registered customers,
and more. - Magento offers basic out-of-the-box inventory
management features, just like Shopify, but this
ecommerce solution differs significantly when it
comes to advanced features. For instance, there
are many different variation options (product
sizes, quantity, colors).
5Magneto Cons
6Customization Capabilities
- Both platforms offer robust customization
capabilities, via an advanced interface that
allows you to edit the raw HTML/CSS code directly
to give you total control over the design and the
look-and-feel of your store. - Also, Shopify offers a theme editor that allows
you to play around with the look and feel of your
theme, and it has the ability to hide sections,
so that you can work on future updates beforehand
without having the duplicate the theme, or work
on a staging server.
7Apps and Add-Ons
8Performance
Magento is a self-hosted platform, so you can
choose your own server and make all the required
changes to speed up the store performance. With
the release of Magento 2, many new enhancements
were added to the platform that allowed you to
optimize pages for fast delivery, minimize the
server response time for store activities, and
make backend operations more efficient. Shopify
performance is recalculated daily. Due to the way
the score is calculated, your score might not
change immediately after you make changes to your
online store. Performance scores can vary
slightly between tests, and an average over
multiple days better represents your store's
day-to-day performance.

11Hosting
- Shopify is a cloud-based platform, meaning you
wont have to search for third-party hosting. The
platform takes care of operating your servers,
optimizing it for performance, and security
patches. However, a significant downside of a
cloud solution is that you have minimum control
over it because its run, maintained, and
monitored by Shopify. - Magento can be hosted on-site, in the cloud, or
through a third-party. In cloud hosting, your
ecommerce store is fully hosted and run by
Magento, while in open source you need to
purchase your domain and hosting. The benefit is
that you get complete access to the server and
home directory, thus you can do core programming
to make a customized store.
