Which Magento 2 Order Management Extension Is Best?
Two questions decide the pick
First, whether one extension covers the order editor, the order grid and custom order numbers, or you buy them one by one. Second, what the editor does once an order is already invoiced and paid.
Mirasvit and MageWorx sell order management as one extension. Amasty and Mageplaza sell the editor, the extended grid and custom order numbers separately, so the same three jobs cost $457 at Amasty and $477 at Mageplaza, against $149 at Mirasvit and $199 at MageWorx (whose custom order numbers are a free extra).
Editing a pending order is easy for every editor here. The difference shows when the customer has already paid: some editors stop at pending orders, some re-authorize the card for the new total, and some send the customer a link to pay the difference. Check what the editor does when the total goes up, and what you do by hand when it goes down.
Magento itself can't edit a placed order: its admin "Edit" button cancels the order and creates a new one (see FAQ).

Side by side, on what changes the decision
"Covers" is what one purchase includes; "After invoice" is what the editor does with an order that is already invoiced, as stated in each vendor's product page or user guide. Prices are for Magento Open Source; Adobe Commerce prices are in each vendor's section below.
| Price | Covers | After invoice | Edit history | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mirasvit Order Management | $149 | editor, grid, numbers, tags | pay-the-difference link | Yes |
| MageWorx Order Management | $199 | editor, grid, delete | re-authorizes PayPal, Braintree | Yes |
| MageWorx Order Editor | $149 | editor | re-authorizes PayPal, Braintree | Yes |
| Amasty Order Editor | $169 | customer self-editing | authorize-only payments | not stated |
| Mageplaza Edit Order | $199 | editor | items only while pending | Yes |
A note on pricing: every extension here includes a year of updates and support (Webkul includes three months). Mirasvit renews at $90 a year, Amasty Order Editor at $105, MageWorx at 40% off the list price; Mageplaza prices as a yearly subscription. Amasty and Mageplaza sell the grid ($129 each) and custom order numbers ($159 and $149) as separate extensions.

Frequently asked questions
Which Magento 2 order management extension is best?
It depends on how many order jobs you need. For the editor, the extended grid, custom order numbers and tags in one extension, Mirasvit Order Management costs $149. If you edit invoiced orders paid through PayPal or Braintree and want the card re-authorized, choose MageWorx Order Management ($199). If customers should edit their own orders, choose Amasty Order Editor ($169). For the editor alone at the lowest price, MageComp Order Editor is $79.
Can you edit an order in Magento 2 without an extension?
No. The "Edit" button on an admin order cancels the original order and creates a new one with a new number, which needs its own payment. You can change the billing and shipping address and add comments without an extension, but items, prices, discounts and methods need an order editor.
Can you edit an order after it's invoiced?
With most editors, yes, but the payment is the hard part. Mirasvit emails the customer a link to pay the difference when the total goes up. MageWorx re-authorizes the new total for PayPal and Braintree. Mageplaza edits items and payment only while the order is pending, and Amasty's editor works only with authorize-only payments. When the total goes down, you issue a credit memo for the difference.
Which extension adds custom order statuses?
Magento already lets you create custom statuses under Stores > Order Status and assign them to an order state, but it sends no email when an order moves to one. Amasty Order Status ($149) adds an email template for each status. Mirasvit Order Management lets you set any existing status on an order, but doesn't create statuses or status emails. For the full list of default statuses and how states work, see our guide to Magento 2 order statuses.
What is the best custom order number extension for Magento 2?
MageWorx Custom Order Number is free and covers orders, invoices, shipments and credit memos. Mageplaza ($149 a year) and Amasty ($159) add more counter options. If you also need an order editor and grid, Mirasvit Order Management includes custom numbers for $149.
Can I delete test orders in Magento 2?
Not from the default admin. Mirasvit and MageWorx Order Management both add a delete action to the order grid, and Amasty includes deletion in Order Archive. Deleting removes the order with its invoices, shipments and credit memos, so export anything you need for accounting first.
Does editing an order email the customer?
It depends on the extension. Mageplaza can send the customer an updated order email after each edit. Mirasvit sends an email only when there's a difference to pay, with a payment link; other changes are not emailed.
