Magento is the most robust open-source eCommerce platform that exists today. Thousands of brands use Magento as their engine for eCommerce but cannot navigate the complex Magento infrastructure without an in-house development team or working with an agency of experts to guide you. Most non-fortune 500 companies will hire an external agency to aid in their Magento journey. But how do you choose between the inordinate amount of agencies that exist today? Are they qualified? Should we hire overseas developers? Does the team meet project deadlines? Is their pricing reasonable? Where do we get the most value? Are they actually experts?

These are some of the questions you should be asking yourself and the agency you may be working with prior to signing the dotted line. As true Magento experts, we understand what is required from a build to be completed on time and on budget.
