WiserNotify is a comprehensive notification tool that shows:
50+ templates. 250+ integrations. A/B testing. Advanced targeting.
It's a powerful conversion optimization tool — almost an entire CRO suite.
Best for: E-commerce stores, high-traffic sites, agencies managing multiple stores.
Shoutjar does something fundamentally different:
5 widget styles. 10+ import sources. Social content generation.
It's a testimonial management tool — find, collect, display, amplify.
Best for: SaaS, indie makers, agencies, freelancers, service businesses.
WiserNotify tracks activity on YOUR site. It doesn't go find mentions of your brand.
Shoutjar scans Twitter, Reddit, Product Hunt, Hacker News, LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube for mentions — even when people don't tag you. Most founders only see ~10% of their positive mentions.
WiserNotify can show review snippets as popup notifications. That's it.
Shoutjar imports FULL reviews from G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, Google Reviews, Yelp. Organize them. Tag them. Display them in widgets. Turn them into social posts.
WiserNotify notifications are popups — they appear and disappear. Visitors might miss them.
Shoutjar widgets are embedded IN your page. Grid of testimonials on your homepage. Carousel on your pricing page. Badge near your CTA. They're always visible, always working.
WiserNotify doesn't generate content.
Shoutjar turns any review into Twitter posts, LinkedIn posts, and quote images. One review = multiple pieces of social content.
WiserNotify doesn't have this (though one reviewer wished they did).
Shoutjar creates a dedicated testimonial page. Link from sales decks, cold emails, social bios. Its own SEO footprint.
WiserNotify has 50+ templates, 250+ integrations, A/B testing, targeting rules, display rules, urgency widgets, announcement bars...
That's powerful. But it's also a LOT to configure. Shoutjar: Import reviews → Create widget → Embed. Done in 5 minutes. No configuration overload.
At 100% usage, notifications STOP until reset.
€15/mo. Flat.
No visitor limits. No notifications stopping mid-month.
Let's be fair — WiserNotify is more powerful in several areas:
50+ notification templates for every scenario: sales popups, sign-up alerts, low stock, countdown timers, announcement bars, visitor counters. If you need urgency-driven conversion tools, WiserNotify has more variety than almost anyone.
Built-in A/B testing across all plans. Test different notification designs, copy, timing. Data-driven optimization.
Display rules based on page, device, referrer, behavior, geo-location. Show different notifications to different visitor segments.
250+ integrations — Shopify, WordPress, WooCommerce, Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Stripe, and more. Deep e-commerce stack coverage.
Unlike many FOMO tools (which only do popups), WiserNotify also supports inline notifications embedded in your page content. This is a standout feature.
White-label solutions, multi-site management from one dashboard, agency-specific plans. Great for agencies managing multiple client stores.
WiserNotify can pull reviews from Google and Trustpilot and display them as popup notifications. While different from Shoutjar's approach (widgets), it's effective for surfacing social proof.
This is the area where WiserNotify and Shoutjar overlap most. Both can show reviews on your site. But they do it very differently:
Think of it as: "Flash a review as a popup"
Think of it as: "Build a testimonial section on your page"
At 100% usage, notifications stop until the monthly reset. Alerts at 70% and 90% usage.
No visitor limits. No mid-month shutoffs.
