"Disappointing Experience with Short-Sighted Team"

Honestly, there's very little I appreciate about Bazaarvoice. The platform does the basic job of collecting and syndicating reviews, but nothing stands out as exceptional. Any initial benefits were quickly overshadowed by poor customer service and rigid, one-sided business practices. If you're looking for a true partner, look elsewhere—Bazaarvoice is purely transactional. Their refusal to allow us out of an auto-renew contract, despite major, documented global economic challenges such as Trump-era tariffs and a complete collapse of our retail relationships, was infuriating. Their complete lack of flexibility or empathy made it clear they prioritize extracting money from struggling businesses over offering real support or understanding. It felt exploitative. We no longer needed their services, yet they locked us in for profit. This was a deeply disappointing experience and a clear example of what's wrong with vendor relationships in this industry. We used them for review syndication.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

"Extensive Retailer Network and Low-Maintenance Campaign Management"

The platform offers a very large retailer network and is fairly hands-off once campaigns are up and running. The automation features are a bit challenging to navigate and seem to evolve quickly. We use it for review generation and responding to reviews on retail partners' sites.

Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

"Valuable for E-commerce"

This service is extremely valuable for e-commerce channels, and the account support is good. However, reporting and the time required to execute campaigns have been slow, though both have recently been improved. Bazaarvoice is helping enhance our online reviews to boost our e-commerce presence as an emerging brand.

"Avoid at All Costs – The Worst SaaS Experience We've Encountered"

They're one of the few vendors that allow syndication of reviews to third-party retailers, but I'm confident there are better alternatives that prioritize their clients over profits. I typically don't write reviews, but I feel it's important for other businesses to know. Our experience with Bazaarvoice at Sun Home Saunas has been one of the most disappointing vendor relationships we've had. Their customer service is terrible—slow to respond, unhelpful, and generally unsupportive and inflexible. The platform itself is clunky and outdated, making even simple tasks frustrating. The worst part, though, is their contracts. We had to discontinue our B2B program due to tariffs, and even though our 12-month term had ended, they wouldn't release us from the contract. They hide behind legal fine print and take a 'gotcha' approach rather than working with us as partners. I've never encountered a company so rigid, impersonal, and unpleasant to work with. If you're considering Bazaarvoice, I strongly recommend exploring other options. Feel free to contact me if you want the full details—I'm happy to share. Our initial purpose was to syndicate our website reviews to third-party retailers, but their service is slow, clunky, and their support team is unhelpful.

"A Practical Reviews and Ratings App for Any Project"

Integrating Bazaarvoice reviews and ratings into our project was straightforward—we just had to add the Bazaarvoice script to the code. After that, the reviews and ratings for products display on both the PLP and PDP. The app is user-friendly and we frequently check ratings. When users submit reviews and ratings on our site, they get sent to the Bazaarvoice app for moderation. Our team can easily approve or reject them, and upon approval, they appear on our site; otherwise, they don't. We can monitor daily how many submissions we receive. Customer support is very helpful and accessible for any issues we encounter. The UI of the Bazaarvoice app is a bit confusing initially, but once you get used to it, it becomes familiar. The interface for approving/rejecting reviews feels outdated, and the Bazaarvoice inspector function is also tricky to navigate. 1. It allows us to review submitted ratings and then decide to accept or reject them if they seem fraudulent. 2. It enables direct email outreach to customers for reviews on their purchases. 3. It aids in order analytics. 4. The 'Loving your homes' curated gallery feature helps advertise the most reviewed and purchased products.

"Effortless Review Syndication and Analysis with Responsive Support"

Bazaarvoice simplifies review syndication and analysis considerably, and their support team is highly responsive whenever I reach out for help. There's nothing negative to report—everything has worked smoothly. We use it for seeding reviews and syndicating them to our website and retail partners.

Senior Marketing Manager

"Smooth Setup, Amazing Team, and Seamless Integrations"

The implementation process was straightforward, and the implementation team was outstanding. Navigating the backend is fairly intuitive, and integration has been quick and effortless so far. It's somewhat costly, but it's been worth the investment. We needed reviews to appear on external websites beyond our own, and this platform handles that exceptionally well. We weren't sure how to quickly implement UGC on our site, and this feature was included with our Ratings & Reviews package, fitting our needs perfectly.

"Strong Syndication to Retailers Like Target, Babylist, and Walmart"

Bazaarvoice offers excellent syndication to our retail partners such as Target, Babylist, and Walmart. However, their support team could be more responsive, as it often takes a while to get a reply. We use it for UGC, online reviews, and syndication across various platforms, as well as for building integration and trust on our own D2C website.

Retention Marketing Manager

"Excellent for Syndicated Reviews but Lacks Integration Options for ESP and Loyalty Tools"

One of the key advantages of Bazaarvoice is its ability to collaborate effectively with partners. I also value the review family grouping feature, which allows us to consolidate product reviews for different UPCs that logically belong together—this is a significant benefit. On the downside, I find the email customization options limited, and there's a lack of native integrations with various ESP and loyalty platforms. The current setup requires me to implement specific triggers and code to ensure the review link populates correctly, which is both challenging and time-consuming. I utilize Bazaarvoice to manage syndicated reviews on our ecommerce site, enabling syndication for retail partners and facilitating family groupings.

Customer Relationship Management Assistant

"Revolutionary Tool for Managing Reviews with Excellent Support"

What stands out to me is the helpfulness of the customer service team whenever I need assistance, the user-friendly nature of the portal, and the simplicity of the review process for our customers. The only thing I find could be improved is the backend setup for HTML emails in review requests, as it could be more straightforward. I rely on Bazaarvoice for collecting and moderating reviews to boost social proof and conversions, gathering feedback for our website, and identifying patterns in negative reviews.
