Haulistic vs Shopify
Shopify is a genuinely excellent platform. For a lot of businesses, it’s the wrong one.
Here’s an honest look at where we’re better, where we’re not, and how to tell which you are.
Side by side
Where Shopify wins
- Deep theme customisation and full design control
- An enormous app ecosystem for almost any requirement
- Multi-currency and international selling
- Brands large enough to have a developer or agency on retainer
Where we win
- Live in days, not weeks — Guided setup instead of theme and app decisions.
- What matters is included — Ad tracking, checkout, payments, WhatsApp order updates. On Shopify each of these is an app with its own bill.
- AI product creation from your Instagram posts — No native Shopify equivalent.
- Hands-on Meta ads help from our team, not an agency retainer.
- Built for Indian payments, logistics and WhatsApp from the start.
How to tell which is right for you
If you have a developer, need a custom theme, or sell internationally — choose Shopify. We mean that.
If you’re selling on Instagram, doing under about ₹1 crore a year, and want a store that works without becoming a project — that’s what we built.
