FAQs for E-Commerce

How do I collect video reviews at scale for hundreds of products?
Add your collection link to the post-delivery email your store already sends, or import a customer list into VideoTestimonials' email outreach and send the request from there. Customers record directly from their phone, no app needed, and you add each new testimonial to the matching product page's widget.
Can I display video reviews on specific product pages?
Yes. Use the Single widget to show a chosen review on its product page, or embed a hand-picked Wall of Love with its iframe code. Customers see reviews relevant to exactly what they're considering.
Is Vocal Video better for video quality?
Both platforms record in high quality. VideoTestimonials matches Vocal Video's recording quality while also supporting text testimonials and costing significantly less.
Does VideoTestimonials have guided interviews like Vocal Video?
Yes, you can set up multi-question guided collection flows that walk customers through recording their testimonial step by step.
Why is Vocal Video so much more expensive?
Vocal Video's paid plans start at $99/mo while ours start at $24/mo. Both offer free tiers. Compare feature sets to find the best fit for your needs.
