What is Magento Open Source?
Magento Open Source is the free, open-source edition of Magento. It's the same core platform that sits under Adobe Commerce, without the enterprise feature set and the licence fee. For a great many merchants, that core plus the right team is all the platform they ever need.
Why it's worth doing
The board-level version: full control, no licence fee, and you spend on the store itself rather than on software you may not use.
Nothing to Adobe each year. That budget goes into the build, performance and marketing, where it shows up for customers.
Open code, your hosting, your data. You're not tied to one vendor's roadmap or release schedule.
A mature, flexible platform with a huge extension ecosystem. You add capability where it earns its place, rather than paying for a bundle up front.
Open Source plus a Hyvä front end gives you a fast, modern store at no platform licence cost. A strong combination for B2C and mid-market.
The trade-off is honest: you own hosting, patching and operations rather than buying a managed service and an SLA. That's exactly the work we take on, so it's covered without the enterprise price tag. If you do need the enterprise features, Adobe Commerce is the step up.
We support Mage-OS too
Mage-OS is an independent, non-profit, community-run distribution of Magento Open Source. It tracks the same upstream core and stays compatible with your existing extensions, themes and integrations, while the community ships security patches quickly and keeps the platform's future in the open. If you've moved to it, or you're thinking about it, we're equally at home there.
Built on the same Magento Open Source core, so your extensions and themes keep working. Switching is largely a composer change, not a rebuild.
Security fixes are validated and shipped by the community rather than waiting on a corporate release calendar.
Decisions, releases and roadmap are public and community-driven, which means no single-vendor lock-in on the platform's direction.
It keeps an independent, healthy version of Magento alive regardless of Adobe's commercial direction. Reassuring at board level if the platform underpins your revenue.
