Better Buy: Shopify Inc. vs. eBay Inc.

Chances are, you're well aware of eBay (NASDAQ: EBAY) -- one of the world's largest auction sites for buying and selling goods online. But have youd heard of Shopify (NYSE: SHOP)? Unless you're an investor by trade, the name probably doesn't mean much.

And yet, there are over 500,000 companies that rely on Shopify to provide a real-time e-commerce presence. Most of those companies are small operations, but there are larger members of the roster as well: Tesla, Budweiser, and Red Bull -- to name a few -- all rely on Shopify to manage their e-commerce machines.
