JustSell vs Magento
JustSell and Magento (Adobe Commerce) can both run large B2B and B2C stores, but they demand very different resources. Magento is a powerful, highly customisable platform that needs developers to build and maintain, while JustSell is a fully hosted, no-code platform combining B2C retail with native B2B wholesale, EPOS, rental and appointments, on a predictable monthly subscription with 0% commission. JustSell suits teams that want enterprise-style B2B without the build; Magento suits large enterprises with dev resources.

Feature-by-feature comparison
How JustSell and Magento each handle the essentials.
No-code vs developer build
JustSell is a no-code, fully hosted platform, while Magento (Adobe Commerce) is a developer platform that needs engineers or an agency to build and maintain.
JustSell
Configure and launch without code, with guided onboarding and support.
Magento
Powerful, but building and changing the store typically requires developer or agency resource.
Hosting & maintenance
JustSell handles hosting, security and updates for you, whereas Magento is self-hosted (or enterprise-hosted) and you own performance, security and upgrades.
JustSell
Fully managed, so no servers, patches or upgrades to run yourself.
Magento
You manage hosting, scaling, security patches and version upgrades, or pay a partner to.
B2B capabilities
Both offer strong B2B, but JustSell delivers it out of the box while Magento requires its B2B features to be built and configured by developers.
JustSell
Trade accounts, customer-specific pricing, quick-order and credit terms work out of the box.
Magento
Rich B2B (company accounts, requisition lists, quotes), but it must be implemented and maintained.
Total cost of ownership
JustSell is a low, predictable monthly subscription, while Magento carries significant build, hosting and (for Adobe Commerce) licensing costs.
JustSell
A predictable monthly subscription with 0% commission and no separate build project.
Magento
Open Source is free to license, but development, hosting and maintenance are costly; Adobe Commerce adds licensing.
Built-in channels
JustSell builds EPOS, rental and appointments into the platform, whereas Magento would need custom development or third-party modules for these.
JustSell
In-store EPOS, rental/hire and bookings share one catalogue, stock and customer base.
Magento
These typically require custom development or third-party extensions on top of the core build.
