Considered Both Products
Growave
Chose Growave
I have not used any other before because this one was great from the get go.
Chose Growave
I selected Growave based on reviews and research from the web. I have not been disappointed with my choice.
Chose Growave
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 …
SmartCustomer
Chose SmartCustomer
Sitejabber is a great tool for collecting genuine customer feedback to promote organizational growth while giving buyers and customers the confidence to explore before making a purchase.
Chose SmartCustomer
Sitejabber has provided us with many benefits and resulted in us with great customer service, handling any issues faced by customers, and competing with real businesses. Whereas Trustpilot, we believe there were many reviews left by scammers for businesses that were not legit.
Chose SmartCustomer
I generally buy a lot of software. I check reviews on TrustRadius, Capterra, etc., for software reviews. Sitejabber is lacking in these cases, so for now, I will stick to these websites for software reviews.

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

It is suitable for the online shopping experience. It gives confidence when you buy on a website you just came to know, and it has good ratings on Sitejabber. It is suitable for fashion, electronics, and marketplaces. I wish they added more SaaS and WordPress-related ratings on the platform, bringing in a whole new category of users to use Sitejabber.

Cons
  • 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?

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.
