Why Should You Use Magento 2 Instead of 1 for Your Store?

Magento will stop supporting the Magento 1.x platform by mid next year so our certified engineers always recommend Magento 2.x platforms only. If you already have a store built in Magento 1, don’t worry our experts can migrate your Magento 1 store to Magento 2. Typically, a Magento 2 migration can take anywhere from 2 to 7 months depending on your store’s complexity and volume of data. There is not much time left to make up your mind to upgrade your Magento store to the latest version.
