GatherUp** - My default recommendation for agencies that want a focused review tool rather than a whole platform. Per-location pricing scales down properly for multi-client portfolios (~$99/mo for one location, dropping to roughly $45-60/location at volume), white-label reports are included, and the NPS-style triage flow - customers rate 0-10, promoters get routed to Google/Facebook, detractors get a private follow-up - is built into the core workflow instead of bolted on. It's the best balance of \"actually built for agencies\" and \"not bloated.\"\n\n**2. Grade.us** - The strongest pick if review management *is* your product and you're reselling at scale. It was designed from day one for agencies and SEO consultants: multi-client management in one login, deep white-labeling (custom domains, branded emails, branded client dashboards) on every tier, not just enterprise. Seat-based pricing starts around $110/mo for one seat but falls to ~$40/seat at Agency tier and ~$25/seat at Partner tier, which is the cheapest per-client math I found for anyone managing 50+ locations.\n\n**3. Vendasta** - Choose this if you want to resell a who", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
