Based on the data on this page, Helium Customer Fields is the stronger choice for most Shopify App Store merchants — 4.6★ vs Social Commerce's 0.0★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: Helium Customer Fields at Free trial available, Social Commerce 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. Helium Customer Fields has the larger user base (311 reviews vs 0), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Social Commerce'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 Helium Customer Fields; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Social Commerce's 0-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Helium Customer Fields'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.

It depends on what you're optimizing for. Helium Customer Fields fits better if you prioritize rating consistency; Social Commerce is the call if you need the larger user base. Read both apps' detail pages on AppRanks for the full feature breakdown, install counts, and recent listing changes.
Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store marketplace. Helium Customer Fields has more onboarding documentation maturity (311 reviews vs 0), which usually translates to better-tested setup wizards and quicker time-to-value. AppRanks doesn't measure setup time directly — read the recent reviews on each app's detail page for merchant-reported install experience.
Helium Customer Fields typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (311 reviews). Social Commerce aligns more with early-stage and growth-mode stores (0 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. Helium Customer Fields and Social Commerce 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 Social Commerce" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
App works well for custom registration forms where you need confirmation steps, document uploads, and email confirmations. It also syncs well with Shopify admin for all customer data including tags, tax collection, and more. I have been using this app for years, and never had an issue.
