How to choose the right Magento 2 extensions

Choosing the right Magento 2 extensions is essential to optimizing your site’s performance, driving traffic, and increasing sales. Consider the following factors when selecting your extensions.

Assess your needs

Understand what your store needs and focus on the specific functionality you want to improve.

Through customers’ feedback and testing, you can identify areas for improvement. Is your website not showing up in Google results? Do your visitors abandon their cart before checking out? Has there been any attempted security breach in your store?

Then, you can install relevant extensions to improve those areas. For example, SEO extensions can help your website rank higher on the search result page, sales and marketing extensions with abandoned cart management can recoup lost sales, and security extensions can protect your store against security attacks.

Check compatibility

If you install an extension that is not compatible with your current Magento 2 version, it could undermine your store optimization efforts. Make sure the extension you choose is compatible with your Magento version and other existing tools on your site.

As a rule of thumb, always update your Magento to the latest version.

Evaluate quality and reputation

When choosing your Magento 2 extensions, you should also consider the extension’s quality and its developers’ reputation. Check user reviews and ratings to verify the performance and reliability of the extensions you want to install.

Test performance impact

Test new extensions on a staging environment to determine their impact on site speed and overall performance before applying them on the live site.

Consider support and updates

Go for extensions with solid customer support, regular updates, and comprehensive documentation. These are all essential for the long-term stability and security of the extensions and, by extension, the website.
