Now, we’re providing you with a more in-depth view of this release by showcasing the features, capabilities and updates in detail.
Join us on Tuesday, 2nd March 2021, at 16:00 (GMT), as our leadership present a tell-all event of what to expect from OroCommerce 4.2 LTS with a live demo. We’ll be showing you the latest improvements and will answer any questions you may have with our live Q&A session.
The new customer-focused and productivity-boosting features in 4.2 LTS will make it easy to offer superior customer experiences and grow your business to new heights.
Here are just a few of the improvements you can expect from OroCommerce 4.2 LTS:
- A more accessible storefront – OroCommerce storefront now complies with web accessibility requirements (ADA and WCAG) with improved support for voice readers and keyboard navigation

Ready to Switch?
If you are looking to switch to OroCommerce 4.2 LTS, we do recommend familiarising with the minimum requirements needed for installing the software.
If you’re on the Enterprise Edition, you’ll need the following:
- PHP 7.4.14
- PostgreSQL 12.0
- Composer v2
- PHP MongoDB extension
The Community Edition supports MySQL 8.0 in place of PostgreSQL 12.0. For the full list of system requirements and recommendations for best performance, please view our OroCommerce system requirements page.
Some older OroCommerce versions have been transitioned to their next support phases. The full schedule is published on our release process documentation page.
If you’re on the Enterprise Edition 4.1 LTS, you’ll have plenty of time to switch, with access to security updates and fixes lasting until January 2023. Community Edition users should switch to the 4.2 LTS version as soon as possible to access patches through the year ahead.
In the meantime, we can’t wait to meet you, answer your questions, and assist you through another OroCommerce milestone.
