How does your customer submit a product review?

Showcasing product reviews is one of the main functions that the Scuti Shopify app serves. For doing so, the first step is to ask customers to write reviews. In addition to providing high-quality products and services, having a seamless product-review process is key to a successful product review campaign. At Scuti, we always try to meticulously design the best UI for customers’ journeys so that the customers can get the job done with minimum friction. When we design an interface, the main things that we pay attention to are (1) Simplicity, (2) Asking for minimum information, and (3) a straightforward, non-confusing process.

Using our Shopify product review app, your customer can write and submit a (photo) review in two ways: (1) Review request email, (2) “Write a review” button.

Review request email

Our main channel to collect reviews is via sending emails to customers after they make a purchase. In your campaign setting, you can define the sending time of the review request email. In addition, you have the option to fully customize the email. Here is the end-to-end process:

  1. Customer successfully places an order.
  2. After a specific number of days (or even immediately), the customer receives an email that encourages them to write a review. Below is an example of such an email. Note that you can either choose to reward the customer or ask for reviews without a reward.

As shown below, all a customer needs to do is to (1) Upload a photo (optional), (2) rate from 1 to 5 stars, (3) write a review with a minimum of 4 characters.After the customer clicks on the “Write a review” button for a specific product, a product review form is open as below.

“Write a review” button

Customers can write a review directly through the review widget on the product page and without making a purchase. For doing so, they need to do the following steps:

  1. From a product page, click on the “Write a review” button on the review widget.
