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.

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 …

In my opinion, Smile eats LoyaltyLion for breakfast, it was not on BigCommerce however so in my opinion could not use it
Chose LoyaltyLion
The integration with Shopify was the most important aspect for me and so LoyaltyLion took the cake for me. Also, the features that it provides for the price made it an easy pick. Tried other apps but they were either too complex to set up or needed extra steps to integrate with …

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 says it's a loyalty program, but it's not really fit for purpose in my opinion

Pros
  • 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.

  • In my opinion, it ties you into long contracts to suit their own needs
  • In my opinion, provides basic customer support to save them money

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?

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.

Customer support is excellent and sets Growave apart from other app developers and developers in general - You will always receive an email response within 24 hours and for larger projects we have had conversations with them on the phone.

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.

The integration with Shopify was the most important aspect for me and so LoyaltyLion took the cake for me. Also, the features that it provides for the price made it an easy pick. Tried other apps but they were either too complex to set up or needed extra steps to integrate with Shopify. For LoyaltyLion all I had to do was click a button to install the app and add a few settings and I was ready to load.
