Magento Celebrates 1st Anniversary of Production Release

Today marks the one year anniversary of Magento’s first production release and the momentum of Magento continues.
We know that the coming year will continue the exceptional growth, and as the recent 1.3 release shows, the platform will continue to advance and stay on the forefront of the eCommerce technology market.
The numbers speak for themselves, as Magento has now been downloaded over 750,000 times, with an active community of over 84,000 members taking part.
The Magento Connect marketplace continues to grow as well with an increasing amount of extensions available.
We look forward to the continued growth of Magento and are excited at what the future holds.
Thanks for your continued support and Happy Birthday Magento!
I've worked in e-commerce since 2002 and none of the solutions before Magento sparked as much enthusiasm from professionals. It's the dream platform! No other e-commerce software is as efficient and has so many features.

Magento has the features and support of many enterprise level e-commerce solutions ... With the excellent default feature list and the modules available Magento supports almost every major payment solution, back end integration and feature your users and/or clients are asking for.
