Our verdict on Melis Commerce

Melis Commerce is an open-source ecommerce module for Melis Platform, designed for organizations building B2B or B2C online stores. Its product model covers variants, SKUs, stock and prices, while the wider feature set includes catalog and category-tree management, translatable attributes, country- and client-group pricing with VAT, B2B accounts, carts, checkout, orders, coupons, returns and invoices. Developers get front-office product, category, search and related-product plugins within a programmable framework built on Melis Core.

Pricing separates a free Community edition from paid Melis Platform editions that include Melis Commerce. Community is self-hosted and includes community support and a basic API. Small Business License-Only costs €219.99 per month with all modules, full API access and 48h ticket support; its Managed Cloud version costs €460 per server per month and adds basic auto-scaling and hourly backups. Professional License-Only is €439.99 per month, while Professional Managed Cloud is €680 per server per month with advanced auto-scaling, WAF, security audits and real-time backups. Enterprise options cost €879.99 per month for License-Only or €1,164 per server per month for Managed Cloud, adding enterprise security and compliance or high-availability infrastructure and custom disaster recovery solutions.

The main fit is a developer-led project that needs control over catalog structure, B2B pricing and commerce workflows rather than a broad multichannel operation. Self-hosted plans suit teams prepared to manage Linux-based infrastructure, while managed cloud reduces that operational burden and adds scaling and backup features. The platform includes an app marketplace and API access, but its category profile lists a single sales channel. Choose Melis Commerce for focused B2B stores that benefit from an open-source, modular foundation; consider an alternative if broad sales-channel coverage is central to the project.
