Which one, when
Shopify wins the default case with room to spare: launch speed, storefront quality, and a BC connector Microsoft itself keeps current. nopCommerce is the exception's platform — when data may not leave your infrastructure, when the storefront must do something Shopify's model forbids, or when recurring fees are strategically unacceptable. Those exceptions exist, but each carries the same rider: your team owns what Shopify's ecosystem would otherwise absorb, including the BC integration. Choose nopCommerce for a reason you can name today, not for flexibility you might want later.
