Which should you choose?

Zoho Commerce: Online store builder connected to Zoho Inventory and Books.

WooCommerce: Free open-source e-commerce plugin for WordPress, with paid extensions.

The best way to decide is to run the same week of real work through both — most offer a free plan or trial — and compare how long tasks take, what your team prefers, and the total cost for your number of users including renewal pricing.
