Custom vs. connector: what's the smarter Magento–Infor approach?
Criteria | Custom-Built Integration (by Mageplaza) | Prebuilt Connectors / Extensions |
---|---|---|
Flexibility | 100% tailored to your business logic | Limited to default workflows |
System compatibility | Designed to match your exact ERP/Magento setup | May require platform adaptation |
Security | Secure API integration with direct control | Often relies on third-party services |
Scalability | Easily extended as your business evolves | Risk of breaking during updates |
Ownership | Full codebase ownership and documentation | Vendor-dependent |
Long-term cost | One-time development with optional support | Subscription-based, ongoing fees |
Our Magento – Infor Integration Solution for growing businesses
At Mageplaza, we don’t just connect Magento and Infor—we engineer tailored integration frameworks that reflect the exact architecture, workflows, and growth strategy of your business. Whether you're in retail or manufacturing, our custom-built solutions ensure real-time data consistency, process automation, and ERP–eCommerce alignment that scales with you.
Our solution is ideal for businesses that:
-
Use Magento as a sales engine and Infor as their core ERP.
-
Require complex workflows, custom pricing models, or multi-location inventory.
-
Demand complete control over their data infrastructure with seamless, high-performance communication between systems.

Key features of custom Magento – Infor integration solution
Two-way synchronization
We enable bi-directional sync between Magento and Infor for orders, inventory, product catalogs, customer records, invoices, and more. Crucially, we don’t just map fields—we map business rules behind them.
Secure, scalable API architecture
Our team develops and deploys secure API endpoints using REST/SOAP protocols that match Infor’s ION/OS specifications or build custom middleware where needed. We also implement OAuth2, API throttling, and logging layers to ensure security, performance, and full traceability.
Inventory and supply chain data automation
Live stock updates, warehouse transfers, backorder status, and procurement workflows are automatically synced from Infor to Magento. This ensures customers always see real-time availability, and your team avoids overselling or delays.
Automated order lifecycle integration
We fully automate the order lifecycle: from cart checkout on Magento, to order creation, fulfillment, shipping updates, and invoicing in Infor. This eliminates duplicate data entry and reduces order processing errors by over 90%.
Custom monitoring dashboards and alerts
We design dashboards to visualize data flow between Magento and Infor, offering real-time insights into sync status, exceptions, and performance metrics. Alerts can be configured for failures, delays, or business rule violations—empowering your team with proactive issue resolution.
Flexible middleware or direct integration option
Whether you want to use a middleware platform (MuleSoft, Dell Boomi, etc.) or prefer direct API integration, we adapt to your IT environment. We also offer hybrid models where mission-critical flows are real-time and secondary syncs are scheduled.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Pre-built connectors often only support basic operations and lack flexibility for complex or customized business processes. They also rely on third-party vendors for updates and support, which can lead to long-term risks in performance and security.
We use secure two-way API integration—either directly through Infor’s REST/SOAP APIs (ION API, Mongoose) or via a custom middleware layer. We support both event-driven and batch-based synchronization based on your technical architecture.
No. Our solution is built to match your current architecture, with no need to change core platforms. We only recommend adjustments if they offer clear performance or security benefits.
Costs depend on the project scope—number of modules, complexity of logic, type of Infor ERP, and customization level. We provide a clear quote broken down by phase: analysis, development, implementation, and maintenance.
