How we grade them
| 2.0GPABirdeyeFair | 1.6GPARepuGenWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price is published: the pricing page asks for your number of locations and contact details before you get a quote, and Birdeye prices by the products deployed at each location, not by seats. With nothing to compare, it sits at C, the grade for no stated price. | CThe rate is hidden behind a form. The Review Pulse tracker is usually $108 per provider a year, about $9 a month. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan and no trial on record. You ask for a quote and sign a contract, so there's no way to look around for free first. | FNo free plan and no trial. A 90-day money-back guarantee is not a trial. |
| Features | BIt covers the whole job: AI review requests on the channel most likely to get a reply, AI replies within industry rules, every site's reviews in one inbox with a score per location, competitor benchmarks, and positive reviews turned into branded posts. | CReview surveys, monitoring with AI replies, listings, broadcast messages and AI search visibility. It is aimed at healthcare only. |
| Ease of use | C4.32 from 508 App Store ratings, which is middling. There's a lot of platform to set up across locations, and you start with a sales quote rather than a sign-up. | CNo store rating on record. Surveys and review sites have to be set up per practice. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Salesforce, HubSpot, ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, QuickBooks Online, Square and Dentrix. No desktop app is listed, which keeps it off an A. | CWeb only on the pages read, with no integrations listed. |
| Best for | reviews for brands with many locations | review requests for a medical practice |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
