BR ‑ Better Reports edges out RealtimeStack : Live Analytics on rating (5.0★ vs 4.8★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Pricing entry tiers: BR ‑ Better Reports at Free trial available, RealtimeStack : Live Analytics 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 (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.
BR ‑ Better Reports has the larger user base (1,199 reviews vs 107), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. RealtimeStack : Live Analytics's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to BR ‑ Better Reports; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — RealtimeStack : Live Analytics's 107-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than BR ‑ Better Reports's broader-but-shallower coverage.
