    After an exhaustive search, I was excited to choose Growave for my biz rewards & loyalty program, the Smile High Club™. The app is very customizeable so has checked off every requirement as far as our branding style guide goes. The greatest thing about Growave is its people. They are so kind, patient & know their stuff!! They always have an answer for me

    If you have a Shopify website for your business, LoyaltyLion is a no-brainer due to its seamless integration which means it will fit like a glove into your CRM strategy. However, for any other backend e-commerce website, you need to look elsewhere since integration is not possible especially if you are looking at a retail strategy too where your POS system needs to be integrated into your website.

    Pros
    Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
    • Support - They respond to emails quickly and professionally.
    • Coding - They are Shopify experts and will also try to find a solution to a request.
    • They are also cost effective meaning we are able to progress with development of our site without the high cost some other agencies charge.

    Cons
    Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
    • Not really anything there that would necessarily be needed, or that troubled the usage of the app. Of course, there were some "problems" or how I would better describe it "things that needed to be changed" when we first started with the app, but the back office is very easy to use and understand and if there was something, that couldn't be solved there, the customer service was very easy to respond, handle and solve the situation. So that's not really a drawback, because I guess it's a normal thing.
    • The only thing that could be adapted, is that the emails are not multilingual. So it is not possible to translate them even with another translation app. So that's sort of bad for a multilingual shop, but is only a minor drawback.

    Usability
    Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
    We're currently a small newly launched eCommerce business so our needs are pretty basic. This app is free and does what we need it to and Growave's customer support and their dev team are super patient, helpful and attentive.

    They are super attentive and will work with you to make sure that Growave is properly integrated on your site. I had a few conversations with them. They always had prompt replies and they helped to create some custom solutions so that their modules matched the style of our website. It was overall a really great experience working with them.

    Yotpo seems to have more ways to integrate your reviews with other features on your site, but Growave is a simple solution for people who aren't actively focusing their attention on reviews. Yotpo also seems to have better filters for negative keywords and swear words (important for children's toy company). However, Yotpo carries a much higher price tag.

    In my opinion, Smile eats LoyaltyLion for breakfast, it was not on BigCommerce however so in my opinion could not use it
