Puco Sections: Theme Sections and Section Store: Theme Sections both address the common Shopify merchant pain point of limited theme sections. Both apps allow merchants to expand the number of sections available within their theme editor without needing to code or hire expensive developers. However, they differ in their approach and target audience. Puco Sections emphasizes a large initial library of sections (200+) and a focus on marketing needs, aiming to provide a comprehensive solution for store completion and conversion rate optimization. They highlight new section additions weekly based on demand. Section Store, on the other hand, focuses on providing a flexible library that merchants can browse and test, with an emphasis on maintaining or improving page speed and offering sections that are 2.0 ready. Puco Sections seems to target merchants who want a readily available large selection of pre-designed sections to quickly build out their store. Their messaging targets time-saving and ease of use for busy entrepreneurs. Section Store targets merchants who value experimentation and performance. The ability to “try a section first” and the emphasis on page speed suggest a more cautious and data-driven merchant. While Puco Sections promotes a broader scope of sections with a focus on marketing, Section Store mentions specific section types like features, testimonials, FAQs, and trust badges, implying a focus on essential store elements.

For merchants needing a large variety of sections immediately to address marketing needs, Puco Sections: Theme Sections appears to be the better choice. The 200+ section library and emphasis on ease of use make it appealing for those wanting to quickly build out a store. However, the lower number of reviews compared to Section Store should be considered.
Section Store: Theme Sections is better suited for merchants who prioritize performance and a more curated approach. The ability to “try a section first” and the focus on page speed are crucial for businesses that rely on SEO and a smooth customer experience. The higher number of reviews also provides a stronger signal of overall satisfaction. If your store already has a good foundation and you want to add specific features without sacrificing speed, Section Store is likely the better option.
Section Store's explicit focus on maintaining or improving page speed suggests it's more conscious of SEO implications. A faster site is generally better for SEO. Puco Sections mentions performance but doesn't make it a core selling point.
Puco Sections specifically calls out their support as a strength, stating, 'We love the support. Ready to help and customize.' Section Store doesn't make a specific claim about support quality.
Puco Sections appears slightly easier for complete beginners, highlighting "No documentation is needed, install any pre-design sections & blocks in just 30s". While Section Store is also easy, the 'try before you commit' feature may slightly complicate the initial setup.
Puco Sections, with its significantly larger initial library of 200+ sections, is more likely to have a wider variety of specific section types available immediately.
Both apps claim to work with 'any theme'. This should be tested before committing to a paid plan. However, Section Store's focus on Section 2.0 readiness suggests greater compatibility with newer themes.
