On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), commercetools is ahead of IFTTT.

On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), commercetools is clearly ahead of IFTTT.

commercetools carries 1,270 GitHub stars across 221 public repos, with 37 repositories active in the last 90 days and 16 external contributors on record.
