Admin Menu Search edges out Max Mega Menu on rating (4.9★ vs 4.8★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Max Mega Menu has the larger user base (877 reviews vs 14), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Admin Menu Search's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
