Which one is for you

Pick KnoCommerce if

  • Fits if you run a Shopify store and want to see how buyers found you
  • Works for brands that want a benchmark against similar stores

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want a free plan, as there is none
  • Pricey if you need integrations, which start at Analyst for $119 a month
  • Watch out: NPS surveys and warehouse sync are add-ons with extra fees on some plans
  • Watch out: the page says annual billing saves 20% or more, its FAQ says 10%

Pick Survicate if

  • Fits if you're a product team running surveys inside your app or website
  • Works for customer experience teams tracking NPS, CSAT and CES alongside support tickets

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you collect lots of answers, since 100 responses a month already costs $56 and 1,500 costs $289
  • Not for you if you want a free plan, as there's only a 10-day trial that stops at 25 responses
  • Watch out: monthly Starter keeps the Survicate branding, allows 2 active surveys and charges $0.39 to $0.89 per extra response
  • Skip it if you need webhooks, the Export API or Salesforce on a small budget, because those need Pro, from $349 a month
  • Watch out: SAML SSO is Enterprise only, from $569 a month on an annual commitment

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.
