Weak at App ecosystem is much smaller than Shopify; you build / glue features Shopify gives free.

Replaces these SaaS
- Shopify · Ecommerce platform
Shopify → Admin → Apps → 'Matrixify' (or 'Easy Migration') exports products, customers, orders to CSV. Medusa has a `medusa-plugin-shopify` plugin that ingests Shopify export JSON / CSV directly into the products / variants / collections schema. Storefront has to be rebuilt — Medusa is headless and ships a Next.js starter.
