Even though both PowerReviews and Bazaar Voice are capable of fulfilling the aforementioned needs, PowerReviews also provides free trials. PowerReview's style options aren't always user-friendly, but the app is worth checking out if aesthetic concerns aren't top of mind. Bazaar Voice, on the other hand, sounds really professional and is remarkably simple to use.

I have not used any other service that is similar to Bazaarvoice. They came recommended to me during my last job at my old company and have stuck with them ever since due to overall positive ROI and excellent experience working with their team end to end on customer sample boxes.

Yotpo meets the same requirements in addition it offers free trails too which bazaar voice is unable to provide. Sometimes the styling part can be a headache in Yotpo so if that is not your main focus area you can definitely try Yotpo.Meanwhile bazaar voice is very professional and its relatively easier to use.

It's the most trusted provider and has the highest standards. It also has a user-friendly platform with all the functionalities we need. The other platforms lacked basic functionality, included reporting, filtering, saving views, and general maintenance. We found many issues with moderation and platform performance in our previous providers and decided that we needed to switch.

Both services are a good choice. I don't feel you can go wrong with either option. They would have both fulfilled our need and have very similar offerings. We ended up going with Bazaarvoice Conversations because of their initial cost for setup. The cost at the time for annual fees were similar.

Trustpilot and PowerReviews are similar products that provide similar functionalities as Bazaarvoice Conversations. Bazaarvoice Conversations has proven customer support teams and capabilities of an easy to use User Interface that can be used by non-technical staff.

Bazaarvoice and Power Reviews are pretty much parity products. It is hard to understand which to choose because, from a tech standpoint, do about the same. We have stuck with BV because the account support has always been a great value-add.

It terms of TurnTo and Yotpo, if you do not need the syndication, these are great (and more affordable) solutions worth visiting.

It is completely determined by your business objectives - most onsite widgets will do the exact same things: stars and reviews onsite. The key differentiator would be reporting and only a few have the structure and robust analytics to accomplish this. Bazaarvoice is certainly one of those.

  • Feefo,ISAMS
Our eCommerce platform is ISAMS so we were previously using the inbuilt product review function within that. ISAMS reviews worked but lacked the bells and whistles of Bazaarvoice, and we had to initiate a fair bit of customisation to get simple functions like keyword blacklisting built in. We also considered Feefo but their proposition is more of an independent 3rd party surfacing review content about numerous businesses in one place. We wanted customer communications relating to our reviews to come from us, not from Feefo, so Bazaarvoice was a better fit for us.
