Judge.me Product Reviews App edges out Catalog Machine on rating (5.0★ 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: Catalog Machine at Free plan available, Judge.me Product Reviews App 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. Judge.me Product Reviews App has the larger user base (41,305 reviews vs 14), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Catalog Machine'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 Judge.me Product Reviews App; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Catalog Machine's 14-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Judge.me Product Reviews App'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.

Good support.
Amazingly helpful! Thank you Van!
Migration support varies by app and category. Catalog Machine and Judge.me Product Reviews App 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 Catalog Machine" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
