Community vs.

Is Magento

Enterprise

superior to their

Community

platform? Let’s

dig in and find

out…

If you want to take full advantage of your online channel, Magento is the

complete ecommerce solution for you. But which Edition should you get?

Community is tempting, but is it right for your business?

Community is great for:

• small businesses

• breaking into ecommerce

• getting started with Magento

But, it’s not as flexible as Enterprise

can be

Community is free to download, but:

• there are some limitations

• these grow over time

• can cause issues for users and

sales

These obstacles limit your site’s

potential

With a lot of extra features, the

Magento Enterprise Edition is

unbelievably flexible, versatile, and

robust. Let’s take a look at some of

the best features Magento Enterprise
