The CMS Magento is based on e-commerce. Everything you need for this is available: online payments, inventory management, and invoicing. You can also work with different currencies, such as euros, dollars, or pounds, and you can add multiple languages to your website. The software is suitable for both large and small websites. The software is widely used due to its many professional possibilities. Larger webshops use an Enterprise edition with SLA, but usually, the open-source variant is sufficient. You can install and use this for free. Open source means that anyone can create extensions, and people eagerly take advantage of this.
SiteCMS is a premium CMS that works slightly differently than the Magento website builder. No more hassle with plugins. With SiteCMS, your website is always manageable by you and always up-to-date. SiteCMS is developed with a lot of expertise by recognized web designers.
The Magento package requires a lot of memory, so you will need to put the package on a good/often expensive server; otherwise, the system will be very slow. Optimization is also needed to make the system run as fast as possible. This will incur costs as it needs to be done by a specialist.

We also work with the latest techniques. Even now, an update is probably taking place. This way, your website is always ahead of the competition. With our own hosting service, we prevent problems.

The Magento package is primarily focused on the American market. Installing for the Dutch market is possible, but some expertise is required. For newcomers, it is not always clear where the files are located that need to be adjusted.
With SiteCMS, you get full control over your website. Without programming knowledge, you can create overviews, set up web pages, and generate online revenue. SiteCMS is suitable for websites with more possibilities, such as platforms and webshops.
The CMS functionality of Magento is complicated, and you will encounter several problems in the field, requiring specialization. So, you are somewhat forced to add extensions or develop the necessary functionality yourself. If you want to do this, you need knowledge of scripting languages. It also takes a lot of time to fully understand the Magento package.
With SiteCMS, you get access to all the tools you need to manage a successful webshop, dating site, or platform. Add your tools and start managing your online concept immediately.
The Magento package often contains many bugs. Fixing the bug and identifying the cause often takes a lot of time. This is a major disadvantage of Magento because your website must always function. The cause of the bug is not always identified. Often, the bug goes away on its own after some time. The necessary maintenance also takes a lot of time. Upgrading to the latest version often takes about 24 hours. This is wasted time because you cannot use this time for your webshop. For this maintenance, you could hire a specialist again, but this costs money.
