Based on the data on this page, Blacklist is the stronger choice for most WooCommerce Marketplace store owners — 4.7★ vs WooCommerce Product Search's 4.3★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base.
Pricing sits in similar territory: Blacklist at $49/year, WooCommerce Product Search at $59/year (within ~25% of each other on the entry tier). At this overlap, total cost of ownership comes from how per-tier capacity gates align with your order volume — confirm both apps' upgrade triggers against your projected scale before deciding.
WooCommerce Product Search has the larger user base (195 reviews vs 3), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Blacklist's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage store owners who need fast install and low risk should default to Blacklist; mid-market and enterprise store owners with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — WooCommerce Product Search's 195-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Blacklist's broader-but-shallower coverage.

Blacklist typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (3 reviews). WooCommerce Product Search typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (195 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. Blacklist and WooCommerce Product 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 Blacklist" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
