Great product for a good price

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

One of the things that I like most about Opinew is the ability to pull in reviews for my items that are on other platforms. It really makes moving customers from a marketplace to my own website easier when I'm able to show that social proof. And Opinew also makes it easy to get reviews from the sales on my website, offering branded email options to send out to customers asking for reviews as well as offering the ability to give customers discounts on future purchases when leaving a review. Their support is top notch, not only helping me to get my Shopify templates correctly set up the first time, but also helping when subsequent template updates need tweaks as well.

Cons:

The one thing I wish Opinew did better would be to make it easier to share good reviews on social media like other review software does. But I have templates for social media posts made in Canva, so it's not that difficult to paste in good reviews and make posts out of them.

Alternatives Considered:

Way more than we expected!

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: We're a small software development agency, and we've had to set up Shopify shops for many clients. With all the limitations that Shopify has as a platform, Opinew's tools have been very useful to make sure the styles are how they are meant to be and the products/shop look trustable.
They have so many features but right now I remember once when the printed reviews and coupons came in very handy with this client that needed to ship the products but also wanted to get feedback.
Another thing: Opinew is a big boost for the SEO.

Pros:

First, how easy it is to customize to the theme's style, anyone can do it. Also, how it imports reviews to a product from different providers (Amazon, E-bayd, AlliExpress), and how these reviews give the website a way more trustworthy overall look. We love it.

Cons:

I'd love to see different kinds of widgets such as viewing the most recent reviews but, to be honest, we're happy with the ones they have.

Solid App that helps me managing both my own website and Amazon.

5.0 last year

Comments: So far it has supported my business well. I am not waiting for review to start coming in .

Pros:

I like that I can pull in my Amazon reviews. It is very important to my business.

Cons:

Additional fees for other features in the app. Everything should be one inclusive cost.

All-in-one review management tool for Shopify stores. Import reviews from Amazon, eBay, and AliExpre

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I can attest to Opinew’s efficacy. Their ability to import customer reviews from Amazon to a Shopify store has been a game-changer. This interface is user-friendly and makes managing customer feedback and reviews a breeze. Moreover, the added features (like email and SMS flows) have streamlined our process of collecting customer feedback. I would highly recommend Opinew to all companies who want to scale their business on the Shopify platform and ensure customer satisfaction.

Pros:

Their ability to import customer reviews from Amazon to Shopify. Pricing, usability and more.

Cons:

The Opinew software was easy to use and I had no problems.

Usefull Software

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: Its not for business,it is for me. Before I buy something, I try to see if there is any review about the product on Opinew. So reviews are helping to decide whether buy or not.

Pros:

Software is realy easy to use. It helps a lot to see some item review you wanna purchase. Before I buy something, I try to see if there is any review about the product on Opinew. So reviews are helping to decide whether buy or not.

Cons:

It must be review monitoring,so scams will be detected faster.

Great Review Management System and Importer

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Overall, we are a long standing customer of Opinew and have build a great relationship with the team. We are impressed with the cadence in which they update the platform, and with the great support they provide to new customers. Because of that, when working with new shops/merchants, we are confidently recommending Opinew as the tool of choice for powerful review management and importing on Shopify.

Pros:

We have been using Opinew for more than two years now. The product keeps on improving with new feature updates, integrations, and partnerships announced all the time. After carefully reviewing other review apps in 2019/20, we identified Opinew as the one to use and recommend to our merchants. Their support is very helpful, friendly and available around the clock (which saved us a couple of times already). Opinew has a very comprehensive feature set, that includes: * multiple review widgets for the shop website * ability to include photos/videos in customer reviews * automated review requests (email, sms, printed) * great review management functionality * coupon creation/use for review incentivisation Moreover, Opinew is also offering very powerful import functionality to anyone who is moving shops from another platform like Amazon, Ebay or Aliexpress. These features include: * Amazon, Ebay, Aliexpress review imports * automated review synchronisation * review migration/import from other review apps * Chrome plugin for bulk import of product reviews The review importer functionality, especially with the Chrome extension, is a power tool for anyone who needs to import reviews. Many of our dropshipping merchants are using Opinew with Oberlo to set up online shops in minutes. Import products with Overlo, import reviews with Opinew, and start selling. Opinew has been a great platform for many years now that we thoroughly recommend.

Cons:

As mentioned above, the Opinew system is very feature rich. For new users the number of features (widgets, automations, importers) can sometimes be daunting at the start. However, with recent improvements/updates to user onboarding and the help centre, we do not perceive this to be an issue. If a user gets lost at any point, then the Opinew customer support will be there to help and guide them through the system.

Excellent Website/Product Review App for Shopify Stores - Outstanding Customer Service

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Very positive and they are very responsive to requests for help and listening to new feature suggestions.

Pros:

One of the primary reason we choose Opinew was their ability to import product reviews from our eBay store. The process to match the product review on eBay to the same or similar product in our Shopify store took a while to master, but once we figured it out, it worked very well for us. Their customer service has been HIGHLY responsive!! Very quick to respond, even on weekends and later in the evening. Highly recommend.

Cons:

Our biggest problem in the beginning was lack of clear straightforward documentation on how to setup the product and then manage it day to day. Their documentation has improved in the past few months.

A Lot of Good Features in One Integrated Package

4.0 4 years ago

Pros:

It integrates easily with Shopify. We also like how it allows both customer reviews with images as well as question and answer right on the product page.

Cons:

Even though it has features to customize the look of the widget on your website, it can be difficult to make it look professional and functional if you use a custom Shopify template.

Make customers trust your store

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: The product is good but the customer service is even better - The team will support you right away in any need!

Pros:

It's very easy to import rating from platforms which have many more ratings than yours. This is very helpful not only from a client perspective but as well from a company perspective as you can decide which products to market and which to even stock more for yourself.

Cons:

The amount of bulk actions that can be done is very limited - I would like to update the number of reviews / minimum threshold of products I get from Amazon and I can't do that.

A great plug-in that I've used for 15 months for my eCommerce stores

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Opinew makes it easy to upload reviews from multiple sources quickly and accurately. There's even an "update-button" where you can upload the latest review from your previously selected sources with a single click. Click, click, done. I like it.

Pros:

I've used Opinew for over a year now for several Shopify stores. It's very reliable and easy to use, and you can quickly upload reviews from Amazon, eBay, Aliexpress etc. It does everything you need from a review software plug-in really.

Cons:

A few times the app has gone down for like 30 minutes randomly, that would be my only complaint. It can be a bit buggy at times.

Loving this review program!!

5.0 4 years ago

Pros:

I switched over to Opinew after trialing another. The setup was a breeze and my customers have found the process to leave a review so user friendly. I love the workflow from beginning to end!

Cons:

After adding a colored background, the top doesn't have spacing to allow color so it looks a little funny. But this wasn't a make it or break it for me.
