Magento
Magento is a leading open source eCommerce platform, entirely based on best practices in online sales in recent years. The awareness and acceptance of this platform greatly increased since its introduction in March 2008 . Since that time Magento was downloaded many hundreds of thousands times. The main reasons for the rapid growth of  Magento: optimal findability ( Google), the possibility of multiple stores with a single admin management (multi-shop), the freedom in design,  the extensive eCommerce capabilities and relatively low cost. Since taking over Vivendo (spring 2010)  ICEshop has first and second line expertise and experience to be able to design and implement your Magento shop. Magento is available in two versions:

Magento Community Edition

The successful Magento eCommerce platform offers a comprehensive range of  features, is very flexible and ideal for managing multiple online shops from a central database.

Standard features include:

  • 100% search engine friendly
  • Easy to manage and scalable integration of business is relatively simple
  • Complete design freedom
  • Extensive 'web2.0' functionality, for rich interaction with the audience and the latest trends in web design, eg. alternative navigation and user generated content.
  • Centrally managed product database, optimized for product management. The database features, attributes and relationships between products are indicated. This makes it easy to include up-and cross-selling in the ordering process.
  • Customer and order management, customer groups in the database, tax and shipping lines, discount lines, etc. are set.
  • Easy ordering process, user friendly 'one page' checkout and shopping cart can be shown on every page.
  • CMS, Magento CMS which includes a simple text can be added and adjusted in a pre-tuned layout.
  • Ability to send newsletters or integration with a mail package.
  • Multiple levels of management with role-based authorization.
  • Multilingual, ability to add language modules and local institutions. It can also be customized for each language range.
  • Integration with Google Analytics.
  • Reports with meaningful data about visitors including number, click behavior, trends and flexible export options.

Magento Enterprise Edition

Magento  Enterprise Edition goes even further than the community version. The Enterprise Edition contains all the functionality you expect from Magento. The expanded Web 2.0 features, the multi-shop / multi-channel capabilities, search engine friendliness and great flexibility. And of course still open source. So the platform can be expanded relatively easily and no limitation to let the online business grow.

Compared with the Community Edition, the Enterprise version includes the following additional features:

  • Allocating limited admin rights on the website and shop level
  • Admin activity log
  • Content Staging with support for on-demand and scheduled Merging and Rollbacks
  • Extensive possibilities for the issuance and use of gift certificates (both physical and virtual)
