Dokan vs. ResellerRatings

Dokan is a multi-vendor marketplace. It is usually good for small mom-and-pop shops with less than 1000 items.

ResellerRatings is a good tool for collecting ratings and quantifying how satisfied a user is with your website. It is relatively easy to implement and get setup and does have some pre-built widgets for adding reviews to your site. ResellerRatings does require a bit of training to get the hang of the administrative interface and it does require support staff to monitor, flag, and respond to reviews that are submitted (which can be a challenge depending on # of reviews and staffing levels).

Compared to other similar multi-vendor marketplace platforms, Dokan has much more features and easier to use and manage.

Incentivized

The support needs to be improved as some of the support representatives do not seem to understand the client's request and keep sending canned responses.

ResellerRatings support is pretty easy to get ahold of, and we usually got response within 24 hours.

We use both Trustpilot and ResellerRatings, as they handle slightly different aspects of services (product versus service).

Incentivized

• Positive impact on small to medium shops.
• Needs good advertisement and features to get large shops to sign up.
• Needs more bulk product import and management features.

Incentivized

• ResellerRatings has had a positive impact on ROI by allowing us to quickly gather user ratings/reviews and integrate the aggregate review with Google's paid search ads (via star ratings showing in ads)
• ResellerRatings has also had a positive impact on our business by allowing us to collect reviews and display on our website without the need for internal development resources and IT work (which would have been very costly for us).
• One thing we had wanted to accomplish through the use of ResellerRatings was to display reviews on our website and provide that detail to Google in a consumable format which would result in star ratings showing in our organic search results. However, we were not able to accomplish this and Google never picked up our rating from the ResellerRating's widgets, so that was a bit of a letdown.
