The True Cost of “Free”

WooCommerce is free to download, but running a production store requires hosting, security, backups, and countless plugins. These costs add up quickly—and that's before counting your time.

With Storifyx, everything is included in one predictable monthly price. No surprises, no hidden fees, no DIY maintenance.
