Methodology

How the shortlist is built.

The shortlist is every active app that shares at least one category with Omnisend Email Marketing & SMS, ranked by review count and excluding apps from the same developer. Pain points come from review topics on lower-rated reviews of the subject app. “Uniquely known for” is the top topic present in an alternative’s review corpus but not in the subject’s top topics.
