Which one is for you
Pick Kiyoh if
- Fits if you run a webshop that sells to Dutch customers
- Works for shops that want ratings in Google Shopping and Ads
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you don't read Dutch, because the site and help pages are in Dutch
- Watch out: the pricing page shows no prices, so the cost isn't recorded here
- Not for you if you aren't running a webshop, since it's built for store reviews
- Watch out: the Magento plugin needs Magento 2.4.6 or later
Pick REVIEWS.io if
- Fits if you want product stars and Google Seller Ratings from one tool
- Works for stores moving off Yotpo, Okendo or Trustpilot that need reviews imported
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan to start on, as there's only a 14-day trial
- Pricey if you sell in several countries, as each domain is its own subscription
- Tight if you need the API or AI replies, as both are on Plus at $400 a month billed yearly, booked through a demo
- Watch out: Google Seller Ratings and review snippets aren't on Essentials; they start at Start-Up, $63 billed yearly
- Watch out: every email or text invite counts, and sending more moves you up a price step
How we grade them
| 1.8GPAKiyohWeak | 2.6GPAREVIEWS.ioGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price on record on the page, so it sits at the ordinary C. | BEssentials covers up to 300 invites, so a 300-order shop pays $23 a month billed yearly, or $29 monthly. Set against its listed rivals at that size, that's the low end. Review snippets and Seller Ratings start at Start-Up, $63 yearly ($79 monthly), and each country domain is billed apart. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan or trial is on record for this listing. | CNo free plan. There's a 14-day free trial, and the listing doesn't say whether it wants a card. Fine for watching a few invites go out, not for living on. |
| Features | CVerified shop reviews, Google star ratings and structured review data. Product ratings for webshops, not wider review use. | BThe whole job: product and company reviews in one request, photo and video, 15+ widgets, email and text invites, Google Seller Ratings, imports, surveys, and on Grow a reputation manager with competitor analysis. AI replies and translation wait for Plus. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record, and plugins need a shop platform to be set up. | CNo store rating on record. You connect your store, set up invites and pick widgets, and the yearly plan is chosen in the dashboard after signing up. Moving up the plans means watching how many invites you send. |
| Platforms and integrations | BPlugins for Shopify, Shopware 6, WooCommerce, Magento 2, PrestaShop, Lightspeed, CCV Shop and OpenCart. | BWeb, with Shopify, BigCommerce, Klaviyo, Gorgias, Attentive, Dotdigital, Bazaarvoice and Google. The API is only on Plus. No phone or desktop app is listed. |

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.
