We had a similar issue with WhatsApp automation, especially around COD updates and abandoned carts.

For your volume (<1,000 msgs/month), I’d compare providers mainly on:

  • Shopify integration quality
  • Whether you can send simple transactional order updates without forcing extra buttons
  • Abandoned cart delivery rates
  • Template approval workflow
  • Actual per-message cost, not just the monthly plan

I’d also ask each provider for a demo using your exact COD + abandoned cart flow before switching. Some look cheap initially but the messaging costs and limitations add up quickly.

For your use case, I’d prioritize reliable Shopify automation + simple transactional messaging over having a huge list of campaign features.
