Magento Sage integration has changed the dimensions of ecommerce and online retailing. Magento is open source software which is rich in features and allows a website owner to customise his or her website in accordance with the business requirements and services. It gives the owner control over the entire functionality of the website, as well as its design and layout. This enables them to present the business services and products in the most desirable way possible.

Sage is online accounting software which simplifies the transactions and related processes on a website, adding to the convenience of ecommerce.

It also helps the business owner to analyse the business performance with regular built-in reports and statements.
