TikTok edges out Carts Guru on rating (4.8★ vs 4.5★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: Carts Guru at Free to install, TikTok at Free to install. 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. TikTok has the larger user base (13,282 reviews vs 20), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Carts Guru's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to TikTok; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Carts Guru's 20-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than TikTok's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Shopify App Store listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.

Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store marketplace. TikTok has more onboarding documentation maturity (13,282 reviews vs 20), which usually translates to better-tested setup wizards and quicker time-to-value.

Carts Guru typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (20 reviews). TikTok aligns more with established stores with steady traffic (13,282 reviews). Larger review bases generally mean the app has been load-tested at scale — relevant if you're processing high order volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. Carts Guru and TikTok both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from Carts Guru" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
