Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store.

Digital Downloads PDF Flash typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (46 reviews). License Flow typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (0 reviews). A larger review base generally means the app has been exercised at scale — relevant if you are processing high volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. Digital Downloads PDF Flash and License Flow both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from License Flow" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
