Pricing entry tiers: Scala Anti Spy at Free, Shop Guard 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 (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Scala Anti Spy; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Shop Guard's 0-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Scala Anti Spy's broader-but-shallower coverage.

AppRanks cannot separate these two on rating, because neither publishes one. Scala Anti Spy does carry the larger published review base (5 vs 0). Read both apps' detail pages for the feature breakdown and recent listing changes.
Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store. Scala Anti Spy has the deeper published review base (5 vs 0), which often — though not always — accompanies better-tested setup docs. AppRanks doesn't measure setup time directly: read the recent reviews on each app's detail page for user-reported install experience.
Scala Anti Spy typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (5 reviews). Shop Guard typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (0 reviews). A larger review base generally means the app has been exercised at scale — relevant if you are processing high volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. Scala Anti Spy and Shop Guard 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 Shop Guard" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
