DJUST vs. Sylius: Which B2B platform should you choose?
Sylius is an open-source Symfony e-commerce framework known for its flexibility and modern headless architecture. However, for B2B companies looking to launch in 2 months without managing on-premise infrastructure, and requiring native B2B and AI features, DJUST is designed to go further, faster.

They migrated to DJUST
DJUST, the e-commerce platform built for B2B
DJUST is a turnkey, native SaaS B2B e-commerce platform designed for industrial companies, distributors, and wholesalers. Unlike Sylius (a general-purpose e-commerce framework that requires a paid B2B module), DJUST was architected from day one to handle the complexity of B2B commerce: catalogs with millions of SKUs, contract pricing, approval workflows, and deep ERP integrations.
Furthermore, its modular, headless architecture allows for great flexibility and a high level of customization.
The result: deployments in 2 months, immediate autonomy for business teams, and measurable growth from the very first months.

The comparison
DJUST — Native B2B SaaS, integrated AI, rapid deployment
DJUST is a cloud-based, API-first, headless SaaS platform. It integrates natively with your ERP, PIM, and CRM without heavy development. Business teams are autonomous from day one, without constant IT dependency. AI is integrated at the core of the platform to automate quotes, recommendations, and contract pricing management.
Sylius — Headless Symfony framework, B2B as a paid option
Sylius is an open-source e-commerce framework based on Symfony/PHP, founded in Poland. It is recognized for its code quality, headless architecture, and modularity. Sylius positions itself for the mid-market and enterprise segments as a custom development framework, not as an out-of-the-box platform. Adopting it requires dedicated technical teams on a daily basis to handle maintenance and version upgrades: it is not a solution for novices. B2B features—such as organization management, price lists, RFQs, and quick ordering—are not part of the open-source core; they are available via Sylius Plus, a paid commercial license with pricing that varies based on GMV and the number of modules activated. Added to this are the costs for Symfony development, hosting (Sylius does not offer a native SaaS), and ongoing maintenance.
Use cases
Launch a B2B platform without a dedicated tech team
Sylius is a development framework: you need a team of Symfony developers to configure, customize, and maintain the platform. Every functional change requires development work. The average duration of a Sylius B2B project is 6 to 12 months minimum, with a heavy reliance on integrators. DJUST enables a go-live in 2 months, with turnkey support and an interface that business teams manage independently.
✅ DJUST: go-live in 2 months, immediate business autonomy. Sylius: 6 to 12+ months, permanent developer dependency.
Automate quotes with AI
DJUST includes an AI-driven automatic quoting engine, from the initial request to the confirmed order. Sylius Plus offers a functional RFQ (Request for Quotation) module, but without any AI capabilities: processing remains manual on the sales side. Sylius has no native AI features—not for quotes, product recommendations, or dynamic pricing.
✅ DJUST: native AI automatic quoting. Sylius: manual RFQ module, no native AI available.
Operate without managing server infrastructure
Sylius does not offer a native SaaS solution. Every Sylius deployment is on-premise or managed via Docker/Kubernetes on a private or public cloud—which means you are responsible for managing servers, scaling, backups, and security updates. DJUST is a cloud SaaS platform: the infrastructure is fully managed, scales automatically, and updates are included without any intervention on your part.
✅ DJUST: SaaS, zero infrastructure to manage. Sylius: on-premise only, infrastructure is entirely the client's responsibility.
