Ends in a tie!

Both of these eCommerce platforms have marketplaces with plenty developers. No matter which solution you decide on you will have plenty of choices for plugins or extensions but you will more than likely find many plugins that are compatible with WordPress (which is the CMS that WooCommerce plugins into because Woocommerce itself is a plugin) that are not only paid options but free. Magento extensions can only be used for one software Magento and the developers are able to charge a higher price for them.
