Integrating an ERP with Magento can entail a lot of work. Some merchants just live with them being separated, using export and import tools to relay information. This extension keeps the ERP functionality in Magento – easing management of inventory, order, pick and pack and more (definitely more – the user guide is 200 pages long!) Note, the extension does modify Magento core files; Boostmyshop says they offer support to resolve extension conflicts that may occur as a result.

Using the Xero accounting package? Here’s a way to integrate Xero to your Magento admin, avoiding time-consuming and error-prone exports and imports. Available as a monthly service, the connector is multi-store capable and allows control of order status triggers and manual exclusion of orders.

Everyone wants a performance edge. Caching technologies are hot, as developers, merchants and hosting companies alike scramble for ways to accelerate page delivery. MERC provides a means to integrate Redis cache with Magento. The tool manages and monitors cache key hit rates, allows for bulk delete, and displays an array of performance and base activity metrics.

For years, uRapidFlow has been the go-to solution for import and export of Magento catalog and customer data; we have installed it for many of our clients. Now, Unirgy applies the same approach to sales and financial data import and export. The new extension, just released in July, promises expanded control versus Magento’s default export and reporting capabilities, as well as potential streamlining of migrations from other platforms to Magento.

Affiliate relationships can be difficult to manage, so a tool that tracks, reports, and automates incentives could help boost the profitability of this business approach. iDev includes per-product and coupon code commissioning as well as monitoring of traffic and SEO gains from the affiliate promotions. Can be deployed as installed software or a cloud service.

“Multi-Warehouse” might, in your case, mean multiple stores. No matter how humble your situation, multi-location inventory management presents challenges for efficient and accurate POS, eCommerce, shipping and redistribution, since Magento doesn’t provide multi-warehouse functionality. Amasty’s extension fills the gap with the ability to assign custom shipping rates by location and other advanced stock management options.

Speaking of shipping … to get the best rates, a merchant might need to consider size thresholds for one carrier, weight limitations for another and pricing implications for all of them. MatrixRate provides an interface to set up your negotiated and standard rates and can filter prices by destination, weight, price or quantity.

Page load speed is a primary target for developers and merchants alike, since search engines penalize slow-loading pages. Lazy Load allows the images to load on scroll, calling up the image only when the visitor scrolls to within a selected threshold (in pixels) of the image container. The tool lets you upload any “loading” icon you choose, which may be a bit ironic, since you really don’t want your shoppers to have to look at a loading icon.

Olark installs via a snippet you paste into your footer code. Trial and premium versions are available. Premium service allows for more flexibility and rule-building around when the chat box shows up and how it interacts with the site visitor. Like anything driven by javascript, this live chat service can add to the weight of your pages, so keep an eye on that.

Both M1 and M2 merchants often come to us looking for more flexibility and efficiency with editing products. This extension permits bulk editing of products directly in the product grid – including name, sku, category, visibility, quantity and status. For merchants whose catalogs never sit still, this tool can save weeks of data entry time. The M2 version includes grid customization and the ability to save and quickly access grid layouts.

Even if you’d have to look up what “rich JSON markup” means, that doesn’t mean you don’t need it. As SEO grows in complexity, subtle changes to how your website presents information within browsers can make a big difference in how shoppers find and interact with your offerings. Merchants use this to quickly and easily control their structured data markup.

Magento 2 does not include recurring profiles (unlike Magento 1). That’s ok though, because the M1 capability was a little limiting and quirky. This extension lets you set up rules for payment intervals with initial order adjustments, grouped subscription billing, cart price rules, full admin and display control. Customers can choose to purchase products as a subscription or singly, if selected by the merchant.

Enables customers and shop owners to create a Request for Quote. Includes configurable tax settings, shipping methods, custom emails and sales rep assignment. The quote form builder permits detailed setup of required and optional fields, registration mode and quantity tiers.

As your catalog grows, search becomes a critical way your customers will quickly find what they want. Spelling errors can be an unseen blocker to increased conversion – this tool analyzes your catalog and suggests alternatives when it encounters a blooper. While Spell Correct can be used alone, the developer promotes it along with their own upgraded search (Sphinx) and auto-complete.

Monthly subscription service permits access to a library of email, surveys and other engagement tools. Email sends are triggered by a range of pre-and post-purchase events (e.g. abandoned cart, cross-sell, first purchase, review teasers) at a more granular level than the transactional-centered Magento templates provide.

Dynamically changes the Add to Cart button to “Pre-Order” when the admin-selectable stock status for a given sku is encountered (zero, or 1 and greater). Displays custom pre-order messages at category and product level. We especially like that Amasty warns merchants about performance issues that could crop up if used with non-simple products.

There are numerous ways to get social buttons on your site – some involving a developer. Using a purpose-built extension (like this one for Magento 2) gives you a simple user panel to select pages and positions to display the buttons.

The “E” in M2E used to refer to eBay only, but the solution has grown and now offers integration of Magento to Amazon and Rakuten, as well as eBay. With a client-server architecture, processing happens outside of Magento – avoiding potential scalability issues present in on-board solutions.

Downtime is bad; you know that already. This free tool (not a Magento extension) provides nifty notification and several different monitoring types: “http(s)” for your domain; “ping” for your server; “keyword” for … keywords; and “port” for monitoring smtp, dns and pop services.

Need more pricing and discount flexibility? This extension from Amasty expands Magento’s cart pricing with an array of tools, including the ability to build promotional pricing based on a customer’s number of completed orders and total sales amount.

Among its other capabilities, Ordoro makes dropshipping and multi-channel fulfillment more efficient and accountable.  We also like the “kitting” feature, which puts a different twist on Magento’s bundled product type.

This extension eases the import of all fields related to the stock entity – including Quantity in stock, Is in stock, and Manage stock. Handy test and debug mode sounds like extra work but is a recommended step..

If you’re going to join the fray and sell via a Google Merchant account, you need to control your costs by tacking on some efficiency. Simple Google Shopping from Wyomind promises just that.

If you’ve fiddled around with your Magento theme at all (or heaven forbid, core), you may have noticed that some of your analytics might not be tracking everything the way you assumed or wished it would. Anowave built their Magento Google Tag Manager Enhanced Ecommerce (UA) Tracking extension to bypass many of those obstacles and to help merchants utilize and consolidate a broader range of tag capabilities while using a single dashboard interface.

Zeroing in on Magento page-load problems usually requires more than a glance at file sizes or a call to your hosting provider. Aoe Profiler is available on Github and is a more comprehensive alternative to the native profiler capability in Magento. The extension is used to diagnose, debug and troubleshoot Magento performance issues.

Aheadworks wrote its Customer Purchases extension to allow customer service teams one-click access to a customer’s Magento purchase history. Quickly view item price paid, dates and other associated data without running reports or waiting for filtering.

Unless your SKU count can be tracked on the fingers and toes of your immediate family, you might be in need of an import/export tool for Magento. uRapidFlo from Unirgy has been a go-to for InteractOne for years because of its flexible capabilities, solid API integration, ability to handle large and complex catalogs.
