Magento Commerce, the most powerful e-commerce, shopping cart technology in the online world, has broadened its appeal to high-traffic, robust online merchants and multi-store operators with an amazing product called Magento Enterprise Edition. The full array of features and support available at this level give shoppers an unprecedented level of ease in conducting their transactions, and afford online merchants a whole host of administrative that perform so much of the back-office functions they can concentrate on the business at hand: selling.
And a big boost to sales now and in the future is the ability to offer store gift cards and store credits in a seamless “click-here” environment that breeds customer loyalty and keeps them coming back for more.
With Magento Enterprise Edition’s vibrant gift card features, merchants can offer both virtual gift cards (sent by e-mail with balances managed automatically at check-out) or physical gift cards (sent in the mail, with history tracking online at check-out). Through the administration features, merchants can set price tiers for the cards, define minimum and maximum values, define the card’s lifetime and even offer gift messages to be sent so customers can personalize their thoughtfulness. In addition, shoppers can use an unlimited number of gift cards at check-out, combine the gift card with other acceptable forms of payment, and the program tracks the gift card history so the merchant can analyze how the cards are being used.
Magento Enterprise Edition also breeds customer loyalty with its administration of store credits and the handling of product returns. This feature allows customers to return merchandize and easily and quickly receive a store credit for future purchases without any hassles. They can immediately, or at a later day, use the store credit, combine it with any other available payment option at check-out, and the entire transaction is administered and tracked for merchant administration through Magento Enterprise Edition.

Step-by-step checkout using Magento walks customers through each step to minimize overwhelm. This shopping cart gives customers the option of creating an account with user name and passcode or bypassing that step to streamline the process. Customers who opt out of creating an account are immediately redirected to the checkout process
Streamline checkout with a single page process that features step-by-step instructions that are easy to navigate. Customers walk through each step instead of experiencing overwhelm. Customers can edit their account details and are able to review the order before proceeding to the next step. Magento allows swift action: if your shipping address is the same as your credit card billing address, hit one button to duplicate that information without having to reenter it.
Customer feedback can improve your business. An online poll is a fast and easy way for the consumers to relay their opinions to you. Ask multiple choice questions. View the responses and number of responses any time. Sway the vote by simply controlling the number of votes cast or chosen.
Adding your products to Magento E-Commerce is streamlined and easy. Add photos, descriptions, and product specifications. The more detailed information you add, the easier it is for customers to make an accurate purchase-minimizing returns. Customers can zoom in on the photos of the product and when they are ready to make a selection, they can add the product to their shopping cart in order to proceed to check out.
Consumers react to ratings and reviews from other consumers when shopping online. They may also choose to add a review of their own. This exceptional marketing tool provides potential customers with honest feedback before they make their purchase. In Magento E-Commerce, you may also select the option to moderate the reviews before they are posted to the public site. You can also rank the ratings so that the higher ratings can appear higher on the page, making those the first the potential consumers see.
When selling anything in bulk, you can add tier pricing using Magento. This allows you to discount volume orders to be competitive. Reward the consumer who buys more of your products with a discount. Add as many tiers as you want. All you need to do is assign a minimum quantity and the price and Magento adjusts the total automatically.
Just like anywhere else on the Internet, tags are essential to convenient internet browsing. Tags can be added to products based on what the consumers are likely to search for. Tags are basically keywords to direct the consumer to what they are looking for. You can label products with any descriptive words you would like. For example, you may want to add a tag like “great camera” to a cell phone because consumers are likely to search “cell phone with great camera.” Tags improve your relevancy ranking in a natural word search on search engines.
You can choose which attributes of your products are searchable-size, color, brand, style, etc. This makes it as easy as possible for a customer to locate the product or product line they seek. Magento offers an expanded search that allows you to enter synonyms and common misspellings too. This automatically redirects the searcher to what they are most likely looking for. For example, you can have “gadget” redirect to the electronics section and “shrit” redirect to shirts. Anticipating what the customer may enter in the search box creates a positive shopping experience for the customer.
