Invoice Generator edges out Gimbal Barcode on rating (5.0★ vs 4.9★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. On pricing, Invoice Generator offers a free tier (free) while Gimbal Barcode starts at paid. The free option meaningfully reduces evaluation cost, particularly for stores at sub-1K monthly orders where the entry-paid tier can outpace the value delivered.

This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Salesforce AppExchange listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
