How we grade them
| 2.8GPAJunipGood | 2.4GPAYotpoFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BCore is $29 a month at any order count, so that's what a 300-order shop pays, monthly only with no yearly discount. Set against its listed rivals at that size, it's among the cheapest. Syndication and Klaviyo wait for Growth at $79, though. | CA 300-order shop lands on Starter at $89 a month, billed monthly. Set against its listed rivals at that size, that's toward the dear end without being the dearest. Google Seller Ratings, AI summaries and Q&A start at Pro, from $119 at the smallest size, and loyalty is billed apart. |
| Free plan and trial | AThe free plan has no cap on orders or review requests: automated request emails, on-site displays, replies, analytics and 2 users. A small shop could stay on it for good. Google review snippets and review incentives wait for Core. | CFree up to 50 orders a month, with automatic requests, the reviews widget and profanity checks. But there are no photo or video reviews, you can't remove Yotpo's branding, and a shop doing 300 orders is well past it. |
| Features | CPhoto and video reviews, product page and star widgets, carousels, a reviews page, syndication to Google Shopping, Meta, TikTok Shop and the Shop app, and AI on Premium. The gaps: it's a Shopify app only, and Q&A isn't on record. | BThe whole job: automatic requests with email and text reminders, photo and video reviews, rich snippets, Google Shopping, Seller Ratings, AI summaries and sorting, Q&A, moderation and coupons for reviewers. Retail syndication and a loyalty product sit on top. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. It installs on Shopify and there's no order count to watch, but you still set up the request emails, place the widgets and work out which plan holds the bits you need. | CNo store rating on record. Requests go out automatically once it's connected, but you pick a plan by order volume, set up the emails and widgets, and the bigger tiers come through sales. |

No phone or desktop app is listed. | BWeb, on Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Adobe Commerce and Salesforce Commerce Cloud, with Klaviyo, Attentive and Gorgias and a public API.
