There are a number of options for subscription for WooCommerce. Let me list them down below.
1) WooCommerce Subscription - http://www.woothemes.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/ The best out there. Also the priciest. Tends to see a lot of updates as Brent invests a lot of time to constantly improve it.
2) Subscriptio - http://codecanyon.net/item/subscriptio-woocommerce-subscriptions/8754068 Good as well. Made by RightPress, who have a track record of maintaining popular WooCommerce extensions on the CodeCanyon store.
Paid Memberships Pro is more towards subscription membership, not subscription products. :) You can either use PMP, WooCommerce Memberships, MemberPress and Restrict Content Pro, among the others.

33,856 PointsZac Gordon , can you or someone clarify how the subscription plugin works? I see the free group plugin, but I'm trying to understand which part of the service is free, and how the paid version works. Thanks!
