Which one, when
For a Business Central company this pairing is rarely a real choice — it is a budget statement. WooCommerce with a sync app suits a small catalogue and modest volumes at minimal cost, accepting WordPress operations and plugin-quality BC sync. Adobe Commerce assumes six figures of implementation and a team to run it. The relevant warning sits in the middle: companies that outgrow WooCommerce often leap toward Adobe because it is the 'serious' name, sailing past the purpose-built Dynamics platforms that would serve them better at a third of the ownership cost. Outgrowing WooCommerce is normal; overshooting the replacement is the expensive mistake.
