Differences and switching

Where Rosette Reviews differs

  • Rosette Reviews needs no account with us, and it works on localhost and on sites the internet can’t reach.
  • Reminder emails go through your own site mail, with no monthly cap from us.
  • WordPress’s privacy tools export and erase everything Rosette Reviews stores about a person.

Switching from ReviewX

Rosette Reviews Pro imports ReviewX export files. It matches products by ID, then SKU, handle and title, and shows a preview before anything is written. Your ReviewX review text stays in your database either way.
