Based on the data on this page, Tickler FREE is the stronger choice for most Zendesk Marketplace merchants — 4.0★ vs Five Most Recent's 3.0★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: Tickler FREE at Free 14-day trial, Five Most Recent at Free. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Five Most Recent has the larger user base (8,605 reviews vs 124), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Tickler FREE'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 Tickler FREE; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Five Most Recent's 8,605-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Tickler FREE'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 Zendesk Marketplace 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.
