Based on the data on this page, External Links is the stronger choice for most Wix App Market merchants — 5.0★ vs Instagram Feeds's 3.1★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. On pricing, Instagram Feeds offers a free tier (Free plan available) while External Links starts at Paid. The free option meaningfully reduces evaluation cost, particularly for stores at sub-1K monthly orders where the entry-paid tier can outpace the value delivered. Instagram Feeds has the larger user base (595 reviews vs 1), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. External Links'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 External Links; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Instagram Feeds's 595-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than External Links'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 Wix App Market 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.

External Links typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (1 reviews). Instagram Feeds aligns more with early-stage and growth-mode stores (595 reviews).

External Links and Instagram Feeds 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 External Links" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
