PowerReviews is a great tool for outside customers to leave reviews, however, it is not very friendly for the team that is taking the information, analyzing it, and trying to learn from it. Their website can be much improved for ease of use, additionally, it may just be my server, but it takes a lot of time for information to load, even if the review volume is 0. Just all the baggage that comes with the page loading makes it slow

  • Their flexibility with moderation options works well for our business. We can moderate immediately, or have PowerReviews handle the first round of moderation.
  • The back end reporting allows us to export and distribute review content on an automated schedule, helping our product managers get first hand feedback.
  • Easy for customers to leave reviews, with some customization by product type built in and configurable for our products.
  • Also relatively easy to drop visitors in to a review form for the exact product they've purchased.
  • Good value compared to the other major player in the consumer review space.

Cons
  • The LocalClarity of 24 months ago and even of 12 months ago, is not the LocalClarity of today. Their ability to listen and adapt to their clients needs is truly remarkable. We will always find the need for improvement with any solution we use but LocalClarity's is near perfect and I have no doubt, based on my personal interactions with the LocalClarity team, the solution will continue to be near perfect.

  • If you lack basic coding knowledge (or don't have someone on your team to set this up) it may be a bit of a challenge to get started.
  • The backend has a bit of a learning curve to it, but can be worked through easily with persistence.

Alternatives Considered
None of the above keep up with LocalClarity. That's the reason we decided to partner with LocalClarity and we're proud to have done so. It's one thing to use the solution for yourself but when you engage a leading brand client you already have a relationship with to a solution, making a mistake is not an option...and not once have we felt we made a mistake introducing LocalClarity to any of our existing clients.

PowerReviews provided the best balance of price and value. bazaarvoice is popular in the industry but when we compared pricing and features we did not see any compelling reason to spend more. PowerReviews also had the easiest team to work with in the sales process, and that has continued into the engagement.
