Selz vs. WOOcommerce?

Does anyone have any experience with Selz, an ecommerce plugin for WordPress? If so, what are the differences? Which one do you like?

It depends on what you're trying to sell. If you're trying to sell digital downloads as well as other products, Selz is a better all-in-one choice than combining Easy Digital Downloads with WooCommerce. It also depends on your volume/company. WooCommerce scales wonderfully and has lots of bells and whistles, I have heard Selz, being simple, is best for solopreneurs, and easier to use. It also depends on how you want to take payment and whether you also have a SSL/dedicated IP.
I have found the WooCommerce to be reliably the best of the systems out there aside from Selz and it's established, well-documented and well-supported, while Selz is new but very powerful.
