Assess your total cost of ownership and your business requirements
The choice between Shopify and PrestaShop is not based solely on the initial development cost, but on an overall calculation of the running costs over several years. You must also take into account your business requirements and the level of integration required with your ecosystem.
- Total running costs over 3 years: Initial development, subscriptions, sales commissions, hosting and maintenance.
- Specific business requirements: Customisation, advanced features (B2B, subscriptions, marketplace, ERP, etc.).
- Level of integration with your e-commerce stack: Connection with ERP, CRM, PIM, marketing tools and customer service.
