Pricing entry tiers: Facebook & Instagram at Free to install, Digital Downloads PDF Pendora at Free. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Facebook & Instagram has the larger user base (4,008 reviews vs 1,120), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns.

Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Digital Downloads PDF Pendora; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Facebook & Instagram's 4,008-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Digital Downloads PDF Pendora's broader-but-shallower coverage. 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 Shopify App Store 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.
