It makes my client's money every day and increases engagement. It makes me look good every time I recommend it and Yotpo is a great company to deal with.
Pros
Yotpo is easy to install if you're using a major eCommerce cart provider like Magento, Shopify, etc. There are some other copy cats out there that promise the world but they have all fallen short or simply miss things. I'm using the incentive coupons to get more reviews with some clients and it's awesome. The review moderation is easy to use, makes sense and we use it every day. As an eCommerce consultant I recommend Yotpo to all my clients and see the results first hand.
Cons
Yotpo can be a powerful tool in the right hands. It has a ton of features and you can get lost during setup on which are the most important.

I'm very pleased. I'm also impressed with the staff. They've been super helpful and friendly.
Pros
I loved the ability to keep everything all in one place. It's super user friendly (although I'm still learning every day) .
Cons
Wish there were more options for email templates. Sometimes I don't have time to custom create a new look so if there were more options where I could just plug in my over verbiage and photos of products it would be super helpful.
Thank you for leaving a review! We really appreciate your feedback.

We have used Yotbo for a few years, and since it's implemented on our website it is hard for us to abandon Yotpo, although we really want to.
Pros
A lot of automatic features, and the software takes care of most things.
Cons
1. In the Q/A-section there is a "Send to past shoppers"-button. We absolutely hate this button, and there is no option to hide or remove it. It's very easy to accidentally press the button and then an e-mail is sent to hundreds of customers saying our company needs help answering the question. When this happens, we get a lot of angry e-mails from customers asking what we are doing and telling us how incompetent we are.
Sometimes people provide personal information in their questions, and if we accidentally send these questions (and personal information) to other customers, we might get sued.
2. There were two of us working in Yotpo, and it was a bit problematic. During the summer there were six of us, and we had to come up with our own solutions to prevent two or three of us not to answer the same reviews, or four of us trying to find the answer to the same question. There is no way to see what questions your colleagues are working with, and no way to make notes on a question or review. We usually spend an hour every day copying all the questions to a separate online document, and all the reviews (with rating, user e-mail address, and order number) to another document to be able to handle it.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. Firstly, we'd like to apologize for any inconvenience, we absolutely understand your frustration. We are constantly working on improving our product, and your feedback is incredibly valuable to our process. Please know that our support team is at your disposal and are ready to help you with any issues you might be experiencing. Again, we'd like to thank you for sharing your feedback with us, it is a critical part of our ongoing efforts to improve.

For a small company, every bit of feedback matters to build brand trust and confidence and I wouldn't have been able to do it without Yotpo.
Pros
Yotpo has been a very good asset to my company as it has made it very easy to capture user feedback on my products and subsequently display them on the website. Their integration with WooCommerce is seamless and the ease of capturing reviews with an email integrated form is super quick.
Cons
The only negative for me is how their external scripts can affect my site speed, perhaps this is something they can work on improving as in this day an age speed is key for converting viewers into customers.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We work hard to meet our customers' expectations, and we're happy to hear we hit the mark for you.

It's been great for the most part.
Pros
I like that I get notified of every review that comes in or if there is a negative review that need attention. I also like that there is a feature for a customer to select they did not receive their product if they did not receive it.
Cons
I don't like that I don't believe there is an option for users to amend their reviews. If somebody leaves a negative review but we take care of them, it would be nice to send a follow up prompt saying something like. "It looks like the company was able to resolve your issue or concerns, would you like to amend your review?" It's very unlikely that the person will go back and write a new review since they are now no longer prompted to do a review.
Hi Justin, thank you so much for leaving a review! We really appreciate hearing your feedback and are happy to hear you're having a positive experience with Yotpo. As far as changing or updating reviews, we absolutely understand your frustration, but to confirm- do not offer that capability. What you can do is resend an Automatic Review Request email which will replace the existing review that's no longer relevant. Here's a link that should help: https://support.yotpo.com/en/article/resending-an-automatic-review-request-email

Customer reviews have become a driving force behind sales on the Internet, boosting the confidence of consumers who are oftentimes purchasing items they haven’t been able to see or touch in real life. Yotpo is a web-based platform for businesses that are looking to get more authentic reviews from their customers. By harnessing the power of their existing buyers, retailers and other online outlets, businesses can increase conversions without necessarily upping the amount they’re spending on advertising.
Yotpo already works with more than 100,000 businesses around the world. In addition to powerful tools for review generation, Yotpo also provides its users with access to SEO and marketing tools. Online retailers are able to distribute reviews throughout social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, which not only drives conversions but also aids in the acquisition of new traffic through improved organic search rankings.
More than simply a review generation tool, Yotpo is actually a complete content marketing solution for businesses that sell products or services online. It uses real-time data and proprietary algorithms to determine the precise needs of each business that signs up for its service. It then provides each business with the tools necessary to persuade customers to generate original content in the form of online product reviews.
Yotpo knows when and how to engage particular customers after the checkout process is complete in order to get those customers to write reviews. It does this on an individual basis with the understanding that different customers have different behaviors when it comes to content creation. (For example, customers from certain countries don’t tend to write product reviews on certain days of the week.) Advanced analytics enable Yotpo to provide businesses with significantly more content than competing review generation platforms.
Yotpo differentiates itself from competitors, and helps businesses collect more reviews, with its Mail After Purchase (MAP) feature. The company says that it can generate reviews from 10% of a business’s customers simply with the use of data-driven, automatic emails.
Each time a visitor on your website converts, Yotpo automatically sends a review request to the customer at the optimal time. The look and logic of these review request emails are completely customizable, and MAP is mobile-responsive. Customers are able to submit their reviews using the In-Mail form, which reduces friction. These emails are also a useful time for upselling, as this increases the value and loyalty of customers.
Yotpo’s on-site review widgets increase trust among website visitors and ultimately boost on-site conversions. Yotpo labels its reviews with a trust badge, which signals to shoppers that they’re reading actual reviews from real buyers. Ratings and reviews are displayed in key conversion spots based on Yotpo’s proprietary data.
Customize your website’s review widget to match your website’s branding and language. Each review includes in-depth information about the reviewer, which helps shoppers decide which opinions are most relevant. You also have the option to ask your buyers custom questions to aid prospects in the product research process.
Businesses that use Yotpo can turn their most positive reviews into high-performing ads on Facebook. This takes advantage of the user-generated content that businesses already have and capitalizes on the effectiveness of work-of-mouth marketing in acquiring new customers online.
You can use Yotpo’s Ad Builder tool to create your own Facebook ads. Yotpo automatically analyzes and optimizes your ads to ensure that your company is getting the top results. You can manage all of your reviews and marketing materials in a centralized place, and you ultimately pay less for top results.
Inline technology that is exclusive to Yotpo improves users’ organic search results. Yotpo does this by loading reviews as part of a website’s content. This opens each business up to new keywords and keeps content fresh, which is a driving force in the promotion of organic traffic.
Boosting your organic search results happens seamlessly with Yotpo, without any real work on your part. As new reviews are added to your website, your content is refreshed and Google’s ranking algorithm takes notice. It also improves the performance of AdWords campaigns by displaying ratings and reviews right beside your Google ads. Reviews are also displayed across Google Shopping and Product Listing ads.
Yotpo integrates with most eCommerce solutions, along with advertising and marketing platforms like Facebook and Google. The Yotpo API supports both HTTP and HTTPS requests.
Yotpo offers a Free Forever plan, which is a basic review generation platform for all online businesses.
