// EDITOR'S TAKE
Bagisto is the closest in feel, a complete PHP store with an admin panel and storefront you can run on cheap hosting without building a frontend. Medusa and Saleor are technically stronger but headless, so you trade WooCommerce's out-of-the-box shop for a project where someone has to build and maintain the customer-facing site.
