    Paddle
    I wouldn't recommend them to anybody because their support is getting worse and worse and their business processes require you to contact support whether you want to or not. You will be forced to contact support and then wait for days to get any meaningful response that's not a copy/pasted sentence from FAQ.

    Zoho
    Zoho Commerce fits well in scenarios for our nutritional businesses have a quick setup for straightforward online sales, especially those already using Zoho tools like Inventory or Books. It shines for single-channel or emerging omnichannel retailers handling catalogs more than 1,000 SKUs, leveraging its drag-and-drop builder and basic automations. Also helps us to grow 5x in the last 6 months.

    Pros
    Paddle
    • Super easy to implement SDKs across supported platforms that support modern interface paradigms.
    • Real team members that provide backend support for merchant issues. We had issues addressed quickly and taken seriously whenever we needed anything.
    • Help with navigating VAT transparently. We never worried that we were messing up in this complicated area of international sales.
    • Great first line customer support reduces the need for an extensive customer support organization on our end. They dealt with all purchase related issues as well as lightweight technical issues (e.g pointing users to FAQs, update links, etc.).

    We tried using Stripe before Paddle, but it was a pain integrating it and it lacked the licensing. Paddle allows us just to add a payment button and don’t ever think about payment methods, we don’t have to make a separate button for card payments and another one for PayPal. Paddle does all this in their checkout process.

    Zoho
    Zoho Commerce was chosen over Increff, Odoo & Unicommerce due to zero transaction fees saving 1-2% per sale, critical for thin-margin retail like 5x growth case. Good CS & IT services and product itself is detailed. Easy to download reports and easy to forecast. Since they are modifying yearly into their system as per customer needs.
