Websites running Magento 1.x will remain exposed to existing and new vulnerabilities with no recourse to fix them. A lot of articles and blogs have been written as of late, urging companies to transition from the now vulnerable and unsupported Magento 1 software.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Understandably, the repercussions of the global pandemic have meant many online retails are yet to migrate made all the more challenging against a backdrop of tightened budgets and reduced resources. Over 105,000 installs of Magento 1 are still in operation, compared to just 37,500 installs of Magento 2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3>Looking to the Future<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>While we\u2019ve seen noteworthy growth in the popularity of plug and play eCommerce platforms such as Shopify and BigCommerce, Magento remains the clear choice for many brands for a wide range of reason.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Magento has hugely improved on the performance and usability of previous versions. Bringing to the table an enhanced admin interface, 20% speed increase, a pure mobile first approach with a seamless checkout experience.
