Backstage has a large and growing ecosystem, with multiple vendors offering commercial solutions based on the framework and plugins that integrate with other platforms.”.

Evaluate alternative internal developer portal products and services to compare their features and support with that offered by the Backstage ecosystem. These alternatives offer differentiated features, faster time to delivery, and lower effort to deploy, integrate and support a portal but they come at the expense of a more closed ecosystem”.
