Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

BackToMe

  • The scope is European consumer law. A merchant selling outside the EU has no use for it.
  • The site and dashboard are French. The customer-facing button covers 24 EU languages, but the merchant side is not multilingual.
  • One price, one feature set. There is no tier for a shop that wants only the archive or only the button.
  • It runs as an injected script on the storefront, so a shop with a strict content security policy has an extra step before the button will render.
  • A young French vendor with no independent review coverage, so there is nothing outside the vendor's own material to corroborate the archive's evidentiary weight.

Erply

  • Priced per store per month rather than a flat company rate, starting at $49/store for the Giftshop & Grocery Chain plan with only 1 user account and 1 POS terminal included
  • Multichannel Chains plan is limited to 2 user accounts at $179/store per month
  • POS for NetSuite starts at $1,800 per month and Franchise & Chain starts at $3,500 per month, both quote-adjusted from there
  • Cancellation requires a written request 30 days prior to the end of the billing cycle
