Do all these platforms provide app or websites to their users but they are also connected to NSE and BSE through back and technology. This connection is either by using their own platform and then connecting it to the BSE or by using the BSE's platform at back end.
This is important because BSE's platform had crashed few times in the past. So automatically, back end linked app will also crash in the same manner .
While using on platform provides some additional benefit more control and security.
Hence, let's compare the back and technology of these apps.
From the above only UPSTOX uses their own platform while ZERODHA and GROWW use BSE's platform.
Apart from that , when it comes to the customer services, UPSTOX ZERODHA and GROWW offer telephonic support to their clients..!
