Functional comparison of Magento 1 and Magento 2

Programming languages

PHP 5.2 – full functionality,
PHP 5.3, PHP 5.4 — only partial.

PHP 5.5, PHP 5.6.3, PHP 7
and HHVM 53.

Scalability

Incompatible with MySQL Cluster, which excludes the scaling opportunities for fast growth.

Compatible with MySQL Percona which works faster and is more scalable, easier to manage and configure.

Performance

Simultaneous work of a large number of operators that process orders and products from multiple of users results in a noticeable decrease in performance.

Elasticsearch out-of-the-box: faster catalogue search, adding virtual categories, synonyms search and admin panel work.

Search engine optimization

The complexity of website SEO due to the lack of ready-made solutions.

Magento 2.3.2 module stores are constantly expanding their product portfolio, including new options for website SEO.

Support for new modules

Due to the lack of support, new modules are not released and there is a need to develop them, which results in the increase in project development time and cost.

Magento 2.3.2 has automatic testing function aimed at improving the code quality and speeding up the quality control process.

Magento 2 Integrates with Various Modules

Features of Magento 2

When placing orders, the first thing the client sees is the default guest verification screen, asking them to enter their email address. If it has already been registered, the customer can place orders faster using the previously saved information. Guests are offered to proceed to a one-click account creation from the order page:

for registered users, the process is 29% faster;
the increase in the guest verification speed is even more noticeable: it has become 38% faster.

In Magento 2, you can embed Youtube and Vimeo video links to the product settings. This feature allows you to increase sales by up to 30%.

Process of placing an order

Visible content changes

Administrator's backend

Up to 25 administrators can simultaniously work in the system updating products or processing orders.
You can configure the admin panel for quick access to the relevant business information.
The control panel has become touch-screen friendly allowing you to manage the online store on the go.

The CSS3 and HTML5 standards for themes, LESS support, and the use of jQuery instead of JS Prototype are the main changes in the external interface design.

The speed of development and the ease of change

The load speed of the Magento 2.3.2 e-Commerce store pages is 1-2 seconds, of pages uncached – 5-10 seconds. Moreover, Magento 2.3.2 supports Varnish Cache out-of-the-box, which helps reduce server load by tens or even hundreds of times.

Full-page caching

Multi-warehouses are part of the box, which is especially beneficial for those who manage multiple warehouses and has more than one fulfillment operator.
