Migrate Data from Magento to Medusa

Selecting the right ecommerce platform is critical for businesses looking to build out custom functionality, scale with confidence, and maintain development velocity over time.

Magento is an ecommerce platform known for its customization capabilities. However, Magento’s monolithic architecture can pose challenges as requirements grow more complex — often leading teams to develop workarounds to build custom features and integrate third-party services.

Over time, these customizations and integrations become challenging to maintain, especially as the business scales. The technical debt increases and the technical team becomes slower with feature delivery.

For businesses facing these challenges, Medusa offers a modern alternative. Designed with extensibility at its core, Medusa provides a modular architecture and a robust customization framework that make it easier to support your unique business requirements without the limitations of a monolithic system. It allows development teams to move faster, manage integrations more cleanly, and centralize their commerce operations within a flexible and scalable foundation.

By migrating from Magento to Medusa, you can take advantage of Medusa's modern technology stack to build a scalable and flexible commerce platform that grows with your business.

This new tutorial in our documentation provides a step-by-step guide for technical teams to build customizations that facilitate this migration. By following this guide, you can move your data from your Magento store to a new Medusa application in minimal time.
