    Any site with e-commerce should have reviews if possible, to give users the confidence necessary to click "add to cart." PowerReviews is easy to implement and has highly customizable display possibilities. I would recommend them to a mid to large enterprise looking for a scalable solution. Small businesses might be able to use a more stripped down tool.

    • PowerReviews does a good job at flagging responses so there isn't anything inappropriate on our website.
    • PowerReviews provides a nice "snapshot" of reviews with an average rating, recommendation percentage, and the main pros and cons. Making it quick and easy for the customer to get overall information.
    • It is easy for customers to leave reviews. There is a good amount of open-ended questions as well as options that customers can choose from. The system is customizable to fit our needs.

    Cons
    Traject
    • Video support could be a little more granular.
    • The nomenclature used in the dashboard is a little unclear to a new user.
    • The password assignment system is a bit over-engineered making it harder to use.

    • If you lack basic coding knowledge (or don't have someone on your team to set this up) it may be a bit of a challenge to get started.
    • The backend has a bit of a learning curve to it, but can be worked through easily with persistence.

    Different scopes in total, but G.us does a far better job in review management and social proof growth.

    My experience was with simple software like Google My Business, but for some Reviews & Ratings, it was good enough and supplied my demand. Once the Google world is one of the bests environments for initial and small businesses, I think using their tools someway we can sound better. If it's not the case PowerReviews will serve as well.

    • Custom components and PowerReviews API can display positive customer feedback from an element.
    • In return for honest reviews and answers to customer questions, we provide genuine and authentic feedback and let customers strain new products.
    • Syndicated reviews help customers see how products work in real life, which increases trust in our website/business and the products and boosts conversions.
