Transparency alternatives to Shopify
Other Ecommerce platforms vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Shopify. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 40 that differ from Shopify on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Shopify has 3 gaps in what we could measure: Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Uptime SLA with a figure. The column “Found there, not found at Shopify” is the one that closes them.

Only criteria we could measure for both are counted. Where we could measure one and not the other, the row is silent: that would be a statement about our measurement, not about either vendor. Every single result with its source is on the two profiles.
