    Magento Community Edition 1.9.2 is now available for download. This latest release (for Magento 1.x) provides merchants with enhancements that make it easier to build and maintain a high quality and secure site. Wondering if it is a good move to upgrade your eCommerce Magento site to Magento 1.9?

    Here is the quick review highlighting a few of the good things we would get with Magento 1.9. Enjoy it and hopefully you can make up your mind.


    1. Better financing and payment solutions
    A stronger PayPal integration: PayPal Express Checkout to assist customers automatically with alternative checkout solutions. Also the Bill Me Later service is up for shoppers to buy now and pay later. Sweatless checkout process encourages more pleasing experience for customers.



    2. Responsiveness at core
    The most important upgrade of Magento 1.9 is that now it takes less time and less spending to code your site for mobiles and tablets, because Magento 1.9 supports Responsiveness at core. Your site will be SEO friendlier as Google favours responsive designs.



    3. Native support for PHP 5.4 and Zend Framework 1.12.3
    For the best PHP experience while developing eCommerce Magento sites.

    Accordingly, if you want to make your site ready for the fast-growing market mobile commerce, don’t miss the chance with Magento 1.9. And keep it in mind that our very first responsive Magento 1.9 theme Summer is soon to release!



    4. Enhanced security and UX
    More than 50 updates and bug fixes. The most impressive one is closing potential cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.



    5. Cross-Border Price Consistency
    This is a new option for multinational eCommerce sites with the clearer and more accurate pricing. This offers your shoppers the single price that they have to pay according to the tax rates that differ from countries to countries.

    Lucy - Nice Tips and thank you for sharing details.

    Security is the best feature of Magento as compared to all major open sources and if they still improved it then it's really great.

    Thanks
