What is Medusa used for?
Medusa is an open-source, headless commerce engine built on Node.js. It handles products, pricing, carts, checkout, orders, and fulfillment while exposing APIs for any custom storefront, mobile app, or commerce touchpoint.
Is Medusa suitable for enterprise projects?
Yes — especially for companies that need high flexibility and full customization. Medusa’s modular services, open-source codebase, and event-driven architecture make it fit for complex use cases and large-scale operations.
What frontends work best with Medusa?
Medusa works seamlessly with Next.js, React, Vue, Remix, and React Native, as well as custom web and mobile applications. Its REST and GraphQL APIs support any frontend technology.
Can Medusa integrate with my CMS, PIM, OMS, or ERP?
Absolutely. Medusa is built for composable architectures and integrates via APIs, plugins, and webhooks with tools like Contentful, Storyblok, Sanity, Akeneo, Algolia, Stripe, Adyen, and ERPs.
How long does a Medusa implementation take?
Most projects take 8–14 weeks, depending on custom workflows, integrations, and storefront complexity. Multi-region or multi-channel rollouts may require a phased approach.
Can you migrate us from Shopify/Magento/WooCommerce to Medusa?
Yes. We support full migrations from SaaS or monolithic platforms to Medusa — including data extraction, model mapping, rebuilding checkout and order flows, and developing a modern headless storefront.
