An app chosen at small scale is not necessarily the one that survives growth. Once catalog size, API rate limits or data-sync volume start to matter, the higher-ranked apps above tend to be the longer-established ones, which is a proxy for how much scale they have already met — not a guarantee. Check each candidate's recent reviews for scale complaints before you commit.
