Less enterprise. More impact.
Review Engine vs Birdeye
Birdeye is powerful — but complex, slow, and expensive.
Review Engine delivers the same core results (more reviews, higher rankings, better visibility) without the corporate drag or the four-figure bill.
The quick take
Birdeye builds for corporations. We build for businesses that move.
While Birdeye focuses on enterprise reporting and add-ons, Review Engine focuses on what actually grows your business — collecting, displaying, and amplifying real customer reviews.
Less platform, more performance.
- Birdeye: Full enterprise suite, $350–$600/month per location
- Review Engine: Streamlined system, $149/month
- Result: 2–3× review growth in 60 days — without training or red tape
Focused vs. bloated
Birdeye tries to cover everything. We focus on what matters.
You don’t need AI sentiment dashboards and endless menus.
You need more Google reviews, faster — and a clean way to show them off.
That’s what Review Engine is built to do.

Birdeye gives you charts about reputation.
Review Engine gives you real, public, 5-star proof of it.
Because dashboards don’t rank on Google — reviews do.
Smarter. Simpler. Stronger.
