Which one is for you
Pick Getsitecontrol if
- Fits if you want popups, surveys and a mailing list in one account for $19 a site
- Works for Shopify stores that want offers based on what's in the cart
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you run lots of sites, as every site is billed on its own and all sit on the same plan
- Not for you if you want emails included in the price, as each 1,000 sent costs $1.40 to $2.00
- Tight if your traffic spikes, as widgets stop showing once a site hits its monthly view limit
- Watch out: the free plan keeps Getsitecontrol branding on every widget
- Watch out: unlimited views need Pro Max at $29 a site a month; Pro stops at 100,000
Pick Pop-up Domination if
- Fits if you want a hosted popup service across several sites on one plan
- Makes sense if your traffic stays under about 10,000 popup views a month
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if your traffic grows: more views means a higher tier, from $54 to $594 a year
- Skip it if you want a free plan, since there is only a trial
- Watch out: the page footer reads 2009-2017 and a banner mentions a GDPR deadline, so parts of the site look dated
- Watch out: the page does not say whether the trial needs a card

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.
