The choice of platform depends on the company's stage, the complexity of its operations, its sales channels, the necessary integrations, and its growth ambitions.
VTEX is typically recommended for operations that require a more robust architecture prepared for multiple channels, B2C, B2B, D2C, omnichannel, marketplaces, advanced promotions, ERP integrations, and future expansion.
Shopify can also be an excellent choice for companies seeking agility, stability, a strong global ecosystem, and a less complex initial operation, especially in projects focused on speed, shopping experience, and operational efficiency.
In its diagnostic phase, ae-Plus assesses the company's actual situation before recommending the best path forward — considering architecture, integrations, total cost of operation, scalability, time to market, and potential for evolution.
