With a huge add-on  market and an extraordinary set of in-buit features, PrestaShop offers a scalable  solution to eCommerce merchants.    Whereas ​Shopify is an extensive SaaS​ and a market's leading online store builder.

It's an ideal alternative for those business people who are  wanting to set up a small or medium online business.     On the other hand, Shopify is a Canadian hosted platform established in 2004. It powers  over ​one million stores​ and is viewed as one of the fastest-growing platforms across  the globe.     This platform is celebrated for its straightforwardness and fine-featured themes.  Because of its flexibility, Shopify is an ideal shopping cart for any online store.     Here's how PrestaShop and Shopify are shown on Google Trends:
