Hello all!

Welcome to the Community Monthly Update for April. 

 

 

7 Adobe Commerce Innovations That Increase Sales And Performance

At a time when teams are being asked to do more with less, Adobe Commerce innovations help you drive conversions and increase revenue. Experience-led growth is one of the most effective ways to boost your digital commerce sales. Personalization leaders see a 1.5 times greater increase in revenue per customer and are nearly twice as likely to exceed revenue goals compared to brands with lower personalization maturity. Maintaining site performance as you grow is also critical, as this impacts search engine rankings, buyers’ willingness to purchase, and team productivity.

Seven new Adobe Commerce capabilities are now available to help you achieve experience-led growth while optimizing performance at scale:

AI-optimized Live Search results

Faster Live Search setup and performance

Advanced segmentation and targeting

High-intent commerce data sharing

Payment Services 

Enhanced scale and performance

New Catalog Service capabilities

·         Security recommendations & best practices

Community Prioritization Process for Magento Open Source 

The Magento Open Source Community Prioritization Process  initiative empowers the community to influence the Magento Open Source roadmap and code base by upvoting the pull requests that brings most value to them. We then pick the most up voted PRs (Pull Requests) to work on and add them to the community dashboard with a purple label – “Project: Community Picked.” 

We added 10 New PRs this week for processing based on the votes from the community. 

 

 

The progress update for March will be out this week. If you missed our earlier updates on community prioritization process, please visit the DevBlog.
