The Verdict
Drip is built for ecommerce stores and dtc brands, with a focus on visual-workflows and email-campaigns. PrestaShop targets european businesses and small to medium retailers and leads with product-management and multi-language.
On pricing, PrestaShop is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $0/mo compared to $39/mo for Drip. That $39/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
PrestaShop has a free plan, which gives it a meaningful edge for individuals and small teams exploring their options. Drip requires a paid subscription from day one.
Bottom line: Drip has a slight overall edge — but if free open-source with no transaction fees matters most to you, PrestaShop may still be the right call.
