Kestero vs Common Ninja
Common Ninja ships over two hundred widget types. The differences worth deciding on are metering, what one price covers, and what a widget does to the page it sits on.
What Common Ninja does better
- Over two hundred widget types, which is more than Elfsight and far more than here.
- On the Shopify App Store as individual apps and as one suite, so installation is a click.
- Their paid tiers do lift impression limits entirely, which not every competitor does.
When to choose Common Ninja
If breadth is what you are buying, buy breadth. Two hundred widget types is a real answer to a real problem and twelve templates is not a substitute for it.
