Based on the data on this page, Gelato: Print on Demand is the stronger choice for most Shopify App Store merchants — 4.8★ vs Icy Studios's 0.0★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: Gelato: Print on Demand at Free to install, Icy Studios at Free to install. 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. Gelato: Print on Demand has the larger user base (841 reviews vs 0), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Icy Studios's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Gelato: Print on Demand; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Icy Studios's 0-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Gelato: Print on Demand'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.
