Grade.us** - My default recommendation if review management *is* the service you're selling. It was built agency-first rather than retrofitted: full white-labeling including your own domain for review funnels, outbound emails from your domain, and branded client dashboards/reports. Around $110/mo for the agency tier, which is the cheapest way to get genuinely complete white-label. The tradeoff is it's focused - it does review generation, monitoring, and syndication well and doesn't try to be a whole local-marketing suite.\n\n**2. GatherUp** - The other one explicitly designed for agencies, and the one I'd pick over Grade.us if you care about customer feedback/NPS-style surveys alongside public reviews. Strong on multi-location structure and clean client reporting. Often the better fit for agencies serving franchises or brands with 10-100 locations.\n\n**3. Vendasta** - Recommend this when review management is one line item in a bigger resell business. It's a white-label *marketplace* (250+ rebrandable products) with a built-in client portal, ordering, and billing, starting around $99/mo.
