MIAMI - SEPTEMBER 15, 2022

According to W3Techs, Magento is one of the most popular eCommerce platforms that powers 0.6% of all websites. The platform comes equipped with numerous themes and custom extensions that businesses can leverage to enhance the appearance of their online stores and capture more customers.

DesignRush, a B2B marketplace connecting businesses with agencies, leveraged its 16,000-agencies-strong network for quick insights – or “QuickSights” – on the top Magento extensions businesses can use and how.

1) MICRO-INTERACTIONS

In the opinion of Vipul Tanna, senior project manager at Ace Infoway, businesses should leverage micro-interactions to allow for a more personal touch and improve user experience.

"One of my favorite additions to Magento is leveraging micro-interactions, to enhance the user experience,” said Tanna. “Using JavaScript, Magento developers can enable engaging micro-interactions. Use it for call-to-action content, it adds a more personal touch to draw users to your website and keep them on the page for a longer period of time.”

2) MAGENTO 2 WHATSAPP CHAT

MagentoBrain Founder Rakesh Donga claims that Magento 2 WhatsApp Chat is a great extension to enhance customer experience.

“Customers have tons of questions when making specific purchases or ordering a product online,” said Donga. “To resolve their queries, they always want to get an immediate response instead of spending more time talking to customer support and raising a request for assistance. Magento 2 WhatsApp Chat extension helps improve the customer experience by allowing customers to contact Magento store owners with a single button click.”

3) SEARCHANISE

According to Aakash Goyal, designated partner at Cloudester, Searchanise offers robust features that help enhance user experience and increase conversions.

“Searchanise is the most advanced smart search and upselling tool for Magento stores that businesses must use to boost user experience and conversion rates,” said Goyal. “It offers faster, personalized and filterable search and cross-sell and upsell features to help businesses maximize their sales and revenue. Using the typo-corrections, in-search product reviews, and prices, customers can have streamlined shopping experiences.”

4) GOOGLE ANALYTICS 4

As stated by Oleksandr Shakhnovskyi, Magento tech lead at MageCloud, Magento store owners should take advantage of Google Analytics 4 to receive smart insights on their audience.

“In about a year, starting July 2023, the current Google Universal Analytics (GA 3) will stop working,” said Shakhnovskyi. “Our Magento clients are mass asking to make a switch to the next generation of GA. Magento store owners should leverage this extension to keep track of their shoppers' actions, understand their behavior and get smarter insights to decrease bounce rates and improve ROI.”

5) INSTAGRAM CONNECT

Murli Pawar, VP at TechnoScore, recommends installing the Instagram Connect extension for Magento 2 store owners as a way to bring more website traffic.

"We recommend the Magento 2 Instagram Connect extension as it is result-oriented and easy to configure,” said Pawar. “It fetches all posts from your Instagram account to your store. Using the product’s tag, you can hashtag eye-catching Instagram images with keywords and drive more traffic to your Magento 2 store.”
