Pricing entry tiers: XCloud Search & Product Filter at Free to install, Smart Visual Search at Free trial available.

XCloud Search & Product Filter has the larger user base (538 reviews vs 1), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Smart Visual Search'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 XCloud Search & Product Filter; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Smart Visual Search's 1-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than XCloud Search & Product Filter's broader-but-shallower coverage.

Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store. XCloud Search & Product Filter has the deeper published review base (538 vs 1), which often — though not always — accompanies better-tested setup docs.

XCloud Search & Product Filter typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (538 reviews). Smart Visual Search typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (1 reviews).

Migration support varies by app and category. XCloud Search & Product Filter and Smart Visual Search 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 Smart Visual Search" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
