FAQ

Is WordPress or Supabase cheaper?

Pricing varies by tier and usage; both vendors publish current rates on their websites.

When should I pick WordPress over Supabase?

Both compete in the same engineering space. Pick WordPress if your stack is closer to its native integrations, your team already uses sister products from the same vendor, or its regional coverage matches your customer base. Pick Supabase for the inverse.

Can I migrate from WordPress to Supabase later?

Most modern SaaS supports CSV/JSON export for the core data model. The migration cost is integration work — every Zapier workflow, every webhook URL, every API token has to be re-wired. Budget 2-4 weeks of engineering time for a non-trivial production migration.
