This guide outlines exactly what to look for in a demo, so you can ask the right questions, understand what matters, and confidently choose the solution that works for your business.
This should be a given - but it’s not.
Some platforms limit what you can do with your own reviews, locking you into restrictive terms. Before you commit, make sure you retain full ownership of your content, with the ability to export and republish wherever you need.
At REVIEWS.io, we make it simple. Your reviews are yours to keep and use across your site, social channels, and beyond. No contracts. No lock-in. Just full control of your customer voice.
To truly maximise the value of your reviews, your platform should be a Google Licensed Review Partner. This enables:
"Your ads aren't as prominent as they could be if you used seller ratings. Seller ratings are automated extensions that help highly rated advertisers stand out. Gathered from reputable sources that aggregate business reviews, seller ratings show with Search Network and Google Shopping ads. You can get reviews to build your seller rating by signing up with Seller Ratings services." - Google
These features improve click-through rates, reduce CPC, and drive more qualified traffic to your site.
REVIEWS.io is fully licensed and integrates seamlessly with Google. Your stars show up where they matter most - in front of high-intent shoppers already looking for what you sell.
You should be able to test the platform with your own customers, not just click through a sales deck.
With REVIEWS.io, you can trial Review Booster during your demo to collect reviews from past customers. Simply upload a .CSV file with order details, choose your email template, and send invites directly through the dashboard. This gives you a hands-on view of what review collection looks like in your real-world setting.
It’s not just a feature, it’s a head start. You’ll walk away from your demo with actual reviews, not just hypothetical outcomes.
A versatile platform should allow you to collect multiple types of reviews:
REVIEWS.io offers all three - plus tools to manage them. You can create shoppable UGC galleries, tag products, and display reviews exactly where they’ll influence conversions: from landing pages to checkout.
Publishing reviews on your website is just the beginning. A strong review platform should help you actively share that feedback where your audience spends time - on social media.
With REVIEWS.io, you can push standout reviews directly to Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook from your dashboard. But we take it one step further with our Social Proof Editor, a built-in tool that transforms your best reviews and UGC into high-impact visual assets.
In just a few clicks, you can create branded review banners for social posts, ads, and even Google Display campaigns. These visuals don’t just look good - they convert, by turning customer feedback into scroll-stopping content that builds trust at every touchpoint.
Even if you don’t collect reviews on platforms like Google or Tripadvisor, your customers might. That’s why your review strategy needs to be multi-channel.
REVIEWS.io’s Reputation Manager helps you actively collect and respond to reviews across all major platforms. This gives you a more balanced, accurate reputation, and ensures that no single review drags down your overall score unfairly.
Consistency across the web builds credibility. Our tools help you maintain it.
Complex dashboards make even the best platforms unusable.
Your review solution should be clear, actionable, and flexible - with tools that help you save time, not waste it.
REVIEWS.io’s dashboard is intuitive by design. You can manage UGC, automate review invites, track sentiment, and respond quickly with features like AI Assistant and Reply with AI.
Whether you’re a solo operator or a large team, you’ll find it easy to stay on top of your reputation.
Before booking (or after exploring), ask:
The best review platforms don’t just collect stars - they build trust, drive conversions, and help you scale your brand reputation with ease.
REVIEWS.io is built for that. No long-term contracts. Just powerful tools, flexible workflows, and support that grows with you.
