LoyaltyLion vs. Open Loyalty

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.

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.

• Integration only with shopify
• UI could be better

• 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

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

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.

• It has improved my sales considerably since customers are more willing to buy from me instead of marketplaces
• We have seen a higher returning customer rate since using Loyalty points.

• 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
