Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
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

Open Loyalty
The scenario where Open Loyalty is better suited is with a customer that has one and only one e-commerce site or equivalent. Many customers think it would be easy to customize Open Loyalty for multiple companies, using only one installation. This is difficult to Open Loyalty since different companies will have different rules, levels of rewards, etc, and that's not easily configured on Open Loyalty. So, the price of OpenLoyalty for third-world countries is a little steep, making its acquisition possible only to large companies.

Cons
Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
  • Consider making some of the Enterprise only features available to Growth. Specifically, ability to offer products in exchange for points! I would like to give my best customer the opportunity to earn really cool corporate swag. For example, Collect 100 S'Miles (points) in exchange to WhiteBrights leather book bag. Also, Klaviyo integration. That should not be an Enterprise level feature?

  • Many customers expect Open Loyalty to have an e-commerce interface. Maybe they could build a barebones interface to satisfy the rare customer that still doesn't have a CRM o ERP or equivalent in place

Usability

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.

Alternatives Considered
Growave (formerly SocialShopWave)
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.

Open Loyalty
Open Loyalty is way more powerful than Tango Card. Zoho CRM doesn't really stack up against OL, since it's too generic. The area where we think Open Loyalty would beat other products is scalability and customization. Open Loyalty has been tried on really large customers and the database never felt sluggish nor the web interface or the web services.

  • My company implements OpenLoyalty, but we've seen a positive ROI for our customers, since everybody and their uncles are implementing loyalty / rewards programs in LATAM
