Why should you switch from Magento 1 to 2

    Hi folks!

    I was curious about the topic for a long time know. Is it really worth switching? What are the benefits if so? I mean why would one even bother when the original version of Magento is still used by millions? Well the truth is Magento 2 performs much faster than its predecessors. The reduced page loading time meets the expectations of eager visitors on the website/webshop and that's not easy, especially if you are talking about mass traffic on holidays. Even a half second of delay can make a difference in the shopping experience.

    Here you can read more about the details and why you should consider the migration.

    Happy reading and Happy New Year!
    Matt

    I believe they did lot of changes on a back and front end. Improved the security which is a bit threat now a days for all shop owners. Also loading time of website really matters a lot. They are still improving it and i will suggest to move on Magento 2

    There are several bottom line changes that can be expected in newer version! Now, you can find a responsive theme in place of default theme. This is going to form the ultimate base of all your themes and it has to be compulsorily responsive.

    This new version would be approximately 20% faster in terms of product import and catalogue re-indexing. Just amazing and very promising!
    It will also give a boost to the flexibility and performance of the store by introducing component based structure of modules.

    The entire admin has been changed drastically manifesting an entirely new and fresh look with improved UX. The menu items are shifted and organized differently, making the setting up a lot easier.
