# E-Commerce Platforms Chart

The features matrix below will highlight the main features and differentiation between providers. Some features are not available or are different because one of the providers simply does not offer the capability or differs with its delivery of it. Additionally, some functions could be missing from one provider to another because, as time evolved, external factors made the feature obsolete.
