Vitals: Reviews, Bundles & 40+ edges out Alpha+: Reviews and Design on rating (4.9★ vs 4.7★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: Alpha+: Reviews and Design at Free plan available, Vitals: Reviews, Bundles & 40+ at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Vitals: Reviews, Bundles & 40+ has the larger user base (2,584 reviews vs 4), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns.
