Actually, it was CONSIDERABLY more expensive. Like, multiple times the entire price of Sylius for a single year of the Magento enterprise agreement.
We budgeted $600K for the replatform. The project went massively over budget and three years after I left, they STILL hadn’t moved to the new platform.
Then they dropped Magento 2, started a replatform to Shopify, and last I heard they let the entire remaining dev team go.
We told them in no uncertain words that Magento2 wasn’t right. But they chose to ignore the people that knew what they were talking about and push their own choice forward because we had previously used Magento1. Moron management would not listen to us when we told them the platforms were not compatible and that we got absolutely zero benefit from running Magento1.
But you know what, fuck then. I got a better job, a promotion, 30% more pay, and I’m 100% work from home now.
Yeah but Magento was like 10% cheaper so think of the profits! That or it’s some backdoor crap like the CEOs are cousin or whatever.
