Q: I’m considering purchasing either North Commerce or WowStore (also on AppSumo).
Could you please let me know if North Commerce includes some of the features offered by WowStore, such as product filters, variation swatches, wishlists, quick view, comparisons, product videos, size charts, preorders and backorders, partial payments, call for price options, currency switchers, stock progress bars, name your price options, animated add-to-cart buttons and text updates, sales push notifications, sticky add-to-cart features, up-selling, cross-selling, a free shipping bar, mini cart options, smart cart pages, cart reserved timers, and store building with Woo Builder, blocks, and patterns? Thanks much!

Aug 15, 2024A: We are a native ecommerce plugin built for WordPress. So we differ from a technical standpoint. This gives you more control over database and site speed.
We have swatches, variations, add to cart features.
We will have all those other futures in the coming months as we launch our V1. So I would highly recommend usuing North Commerce over WowStore.

Wowstore is built on top of WooCommerce --> you'll probably end-up needing to pay optional plugins on a yearly basis. Yeah WowStore propose a lot of features, but paying $500+ of Woocommerce plugins each year can hurt the bottom-line quickly depending on the size of your ecom. If you need to make a choice, I'll advise you to understand which WooCommerce you'll need to run your store as you want to
