A deep-dive guide on all things TCO
We unpack the research behind our calculations and outline best practices for optimising your own enterprise operations.
In this guide we’ll explore 4 cost categories:
Platform fees and e‑commerce tech stack costs
Organisations looking to improve their efficiency may be attracted to low platform fees. Here we consider what low fees may be obscuring or omitting so that businesses can avoid getting hit with rising costs down the line.
Operational and support costs
Find out how Shopify compares to other commerce platforms in terms of operational and support costs, taking into account available features and how businesses can choose a platform that suits their operational needs.
Implementation and setup costs
Implementation costs are heavily influenced by customisation levels and feature complexity, often requiring significant up-front investments. Learn how businesses can assess their needs and compare platforms on initial costs and setup time.
