Magento is better than Shopify for large scale stores with huge catalog and magento is an open-source platform that gives user significantly greater adaptability as he can transform it the way you need to.
Magento definitely has the advantage when it comes to capabilities and flexibility. While Shopify is hosted by the company, and Magento is a self-hosted solution can be Host on AWS or any other hosting service.
As frontend themes in Shopify are proprietary, they don’t allow lot of tweaking. Beyond changing colors and font, Shopify users are not able to fully customize themes, creating a possible issue for store branding while Magento themes come quite customize-able though with a developer expertise needed in most cases.
