Which one is for you
Pick Picreel if
- Fits if you want exit-intent pop-ups on a site under 5,000 pageviews
- Works for small stores that want surveys alongside pop-ups
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if your traffic passes 5,000 pageviews a month on Free
- Watch out: Essentials covers one domain and 50,000 pageviews, and 5 domains need Business
- Pricey if you want no branding, as the White Label Package is $300 a year extra
- Skip it if you want spin-a-wheel or geolocation targeting without Business at $39.99
- Watch out: Enterprise is annual only and sold through sales
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.
