Based on the data on this page, XCloud Search & Product Filter is the stronger choice for most Shopify App Store merchants — 4.9★ vs Search Magic's 0.0★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: XCloud Search & Product Filter at Free plan available, Search Magic at Free trial 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. XCloud Search & Product Filter has the larger user base (525 reviews vs 0), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Search Magic'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 XCloud Search & Product Filter; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Search Magic's 0-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than XCloud Search & Product Filter'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.
