Block Navigation typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (33 reviews). Tabs Block aligns more with early-stage and growth-mode stores (4 reviews).

Block Navigation and Tabs Block 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.

AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
