Comment Notifier edges out Hide Trackbacks on rating (5.0★ vs 4.7★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage site owners who need fast install and low risk should default to Comment Notifier; mid-market and enterprise site owners with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Hide Trackbacks's 6-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Comment Notifier's broader-but-shallower coverage.

Comment Notifier and Hide Trackbacks 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 Hide Trackbacks" in each app's help center.
