OpsScaleIQ vs Yext

Yext gets you found.
We make you worth finding.

Yext is the best-in-class listings management platform — NAP consistency, knowledge graph, publisher network. It solves the discoverability problem. OpsScaleIQ solves the problem that comes after: a customer finds your location, has a bad experience, and leaves a 1-star review. Yext shows you the review. OpsScaleIQ turns it into an assigned, tracked, resolved operational task.

Yext gets your locations found. OpsScaleIQ ensures the experience customers find is worth repeating — resolved tasks, photo proof, and a composite score per location.

Found you. Hated it. Now what?

Yext ensures your hours, address, and phone are accurate on 100+ directories. But when customers arrive, have a bad experience, and leave a review — Yext has no mechanism to fix the operational failure.

Pricing that reflects the value

Yext publishes tiered pricing starting at $999/year for small businesses. Enterprise multi-location pricing is custom — typically $5,000–$50,000+/year depending on locations and publisher network. OpsScaleIQ Growth is $599/month for the operational layer Yext does not provide. Many operators run both.

Questions operators ask before switching

Direct answers. No deflection.

We use Yext for listings — do we need to switch?+
No. OpsScaleIQ does not manage listings. Yext handles discoverability (making sure customers can find your locations). OpsScaleIQ handles what happens after they find you — turning their feedback into operational action. The two platforms are complementary, not competitive.
Yext has review monitoring — how is OpsScaleIQ different?+
Yext shows you reviews and basic sentiment. OpsScaleIQ classifies every review into one of 25 operational categories, assigns a severity level, creates a task for the responsible manager, sets an SLA deadline, and requires photo proof of resolution. Monitoring tells you about problems. OpsScaleIQ ensures they get fixed.
Can we run Yext and OpsScaleIQ together?+
Yes — this is a common pairing. Yext ensures your listings are accurate and customers can find your locations. OpsScaleIQ ensures the experience at those locations is improving based on real customer feedback. The two solve different problems with no feature overlap.
How long does it take to set up for 10+ locations?+
Most operators are fully live within one business day. Connect your Google Business profiles, invite your location managers, and OpsScaleIQ starts classifying reviews immediately. No professional services engagement required.
When is Yext the better choice?+
If your primary problem is listings accuracy — your hours are wrong on Yelp, your address is inconsistent across directories, and customers cannot find your locations — Yext solves that directly. OpsScaleIQ assumes your locations are already discoverable and focuses on improving what happens when customers get there.

Your customers found you.
Make sure they come back.
