In 2019, Syncit Group was acknowledged as a Magento Business Solution Partner, which meant a variety of new opportunities and
a motivation to work even harder on finding perfect solutions for our clients’ needs.
Magento 1 has reached its end-of-life, so if your website is still on Magento 1 platform,
it is the perfect time to start with the migration process now.
What Does End Of Life for Magento 1 Mean?
If you decide to stick to the Magento 1 platform, there are some issues that you are most likely to face in the
near future.
- Magento stops releasing security patches: it is widely believed that hackers will automatically be hunting
out security holes on eCommerce sites that are still on unsupported versions of Magento, which leads to:
- DDOS Attacks
- Running Spam Registrations
- Brute Force Penetration Attacks
- Magento has announced that it will no longer be rolling
out quality fixes nor the improvements to existing core
features & functionalities, which means no more:
- Quality Fixes
- Third-Party Extensions
- No Support for the platform or the merchants, which means that if there are any technical
issues with your website,
it will be hard for you to resolve them quickly as you’ll have to rely on community support and forums.
