JetReviews Review 2026: Crocoblock’s WordPress Ratings Plugin

Shubhankar Shubhankar Updated 13 min read
JetReviews

WordPress ships with comment threads, and WooCommerce adds a basic star rating to products โ€” but neither handles multi-criteria scoring, photo uploads, or reviews attached to users, events, or custom post types. This JetReviews review looks at Crocoblock’s answer: a plugin that lets you define your own review types, pick star, percent, or point scales, and moderate submissions from the dashboard. The catch is that it has no free tier at all.

So the real question is whether structured, customizable reviews are worth buying into an annual Crocoblock subscription instead of a standalone reviews plugin.

Quick Verdict

JetReviews suits WooCommerce store owners and freelancers who need review functionality beyond a single star rating โ€” particularly anyone already inside the JetPlugins ecosystem, where JetEngine and JetSmartFilters add Listing output and rating-based filtering. Site owners who need nothing more than basic product star ratings, or who want to avoid a recurring subscription, will find the entry cost hard to justify.

Pros

  • Custom review types attach to posts, pages, users, WooCommerce products, and events, with star, percent, or point scales
  • Works across Elementor, Gutenberg, and Bricks, and runs on standard themes
  • Existing WooCommerce product reviews can be imported, with star ratings shown on product pages
  • Photo uploads, threaded replies with upvotes and downvotes, and dashboard moderation before publication
  • Ratings output as schema markup for aggregate-rating rich snippets
  • Email notifications for new submissions are configurable under JetPlugins Settings

Cons

  • No free version exists โ€” the plugin is only sold inside a paid Crocoblock subscription
  • Updates and support run on a one-year term
  • Listing output, rating filters, and template placement depend on JetEngine, JetSmartFilters, or JetThemeCore
  • Product review features require WooCommerce to be installed

Core Features

Custom Review Types

The building block here is the review type. Instead of a single fixed review form bolted onto one post type, JetReviews lets you define separate review types and attach each one to whatever content it belongs on โ€” posts, pages, users, WooCommerce products, events, or other content types on the site.

That separation matters when a site does more than one job. A directory listing can collect a different set of criteria than a shop product, and a speaker profile can gather attendee feedback without inheriting the fields a store review needs. Each type is configured independently in the review type builder, so the forms stay relevant to what they sit under.

In evaluation on WordPress 6.5 running PHP 8.4, installing the plugin and completing the basic setup took about two minutes. The distributed archive installs directly through Plugins โ†’ Add New Plugin โ†’ Upload Plugin without needing to be extracted first.

Star, Percent, and Point Rating Scales

Three scales are available per review type: stars, percent, and points. The scale is a configuration choice rather than a theme-level cosmetic, which means a five-star product rating and a 100-point editorial score can coexist on the same site under different review types.

Point and percent scales are the ones that allow multi-criteria scoring โ€” rating a hotel separately on cleanliness, location, and value, for instance, rather than collapsing everything into one overall star count. Stores that sell products where a single number tells buyers very little get more usable feedback out of this.

WooCommerce Ratings and Review Imports

Star ratings render on WooCommerce product pages, and existing WooCommerce product reviews can be imported into the plugin’s review system. That import path is the detail worth noting for established stores โ€” feedback already collected through Woo’s native reviews does not get stranded when you switch.

For a store with years of accumulated reviews, this is the difference between adopting the plugin and starting from zero.

Photo Uploads in Reviews

Reviewers can attach photos to their submissions, handled natively by the plugin rather than through a separate media add-on. Customer-submitted images tend to carry more weight than text alone on physical product pages, and they give apparel, furniture, and homeware stores real-world context that stock photography cannot supply.

Comment Replies with Upvotes and Downvotes

Reviews are not one-way. A comment reply system sits on top of each review, and those replies carry upvote and downvote controls, so the most useful responses can rise above the noise.

Practically, this turns a review section into a discussion thread. Store owners can answer a critical review in place, other buyers can weigh in, and the voting mechanism surfaces the exchanges that later shoppers actually want to read.

Dashboard Review Moderation

Submitted reviews land in a moderation queue inside the WordPress dashboard, where they can be approved or rejected before publication. Nothing goes live unreviewed unless you choose to allow it.

For anyone running a review site, directory, or store that accepts public submissions, the queue is the practical safeguard. You keep editorial control over what appears under your products and listings without needing to patrol the front end.

Elementor, Gutenberg, and Bricks Support

Rather than committing to one editor, JetReviews works with Elementor, Gutenberg, and Bricks. That is unusual in the Crocoblock catalog, which grew up around Elementor, and it means a Bricks-based build or a block-theme site gets the same review functionality as an Elementor project.

For agencies and freelancers who switch builders between client projects, it removes a common reason to swap review plugins mid-stack.

Schema Markup and Notifications

Review ratings are output as schema markup, which is what allows search engines to display aggregate ratings as rich snippets in results. Star ratings in the SERP influence click-through on product and listing pages, so this is a meaningful piece of the plugin rather than a technical footnote.

Email notifications for new submissions are configurable under WordPress Dashboard > Crocoblock > JetPlugins Settings > JetReviews > Advanced, so incoming reviews reach the moderation queue and your inbox at the same time.

Also included: WPML compatibility, added in version 2.0.7 (October 14, 2024), for multilingual sites.

Installation and Setup

JetReviews is distributed through a Crocoblock subscription rather than the WordPress plugin directory, so installation starts in your account area rather than the plugin search screen.

  1. Sign in to your Crocoblock account and download the JetReviews ZIP archive. The file installs directly โ€” there is no need to extract it first.
  2. In WordPress, go to Plugins โ†’ Add New Plugin โ†’ Upload Plugin, choose the ZIP, install it, and activate.
  3. Install and activate WooCommerce if you plan to use the store-facing features. Product review collection, star ratings on product pages, and importing existing product reviews all depend on WooCommerce being active.
  4. Create your first review type using the built-in review type builder, then choose the rating scale it should use โ€” star, percent, or point.

Point and percent scales are the ones to pick if you want multi-criteria scoring rather than a single overall rating.

  1. Decide whether the review type accepts photo uploads and threaded comment replies with upvote and downvote controls, since these are configured per review type.
  2. Set up email notifications for new submissions at Dashboard โ†’ Crocoblock โ†’ JetPlugins Settings โ†’ JetReviews โ†’ Advanced.
  3. Place the review output on the front end using your builder of choice โ€” Elementor, the Gutenberg block editor, or Bricks.
  4. Add optional Crocoblock plugins if you need the extended workflows. None of these are mandatory for JetReviews to function:
    • JetEngine โ€” output reviews and their comments as a Listing.
    • JetSmartFilters โ€” let visitors filter and sort content by star rating.
    • JetThemeCore โ€” drop a reviews section into a custom page template.
  5. Work through the moderation queue in the WordPress dashboard before submitted reviews go live.

Compatibility and Requirements

Item Details
Page builders Elementor editor, Gutenberg block editor, Bricks editor
Themes Works on any standard WordPress theme
WooCommerce Required for product reviews, product-page star ratings, and review imports
Translation WPML compatibility added in version 2.0.7 (October 14, 2024)
Optional Crocoblock plugins JetEngine, JetSmartFilters, JetThemeCore
Evaluation environment WordPress 6.5, PHP 8.4

The builder list above is Crocoblock’s stated support, and it is unusually broad for a reviews plugin โ€” most competing options commit to one editor. If your site runs Bricks or stays entirely in Gutenberg, that matters more than it might first appear, because it removes the need to load Elementor purely to render a ratings block.

Crocoblock also publishes a minimum technical requirements page covering JetReviews alongside its other products; check it against your host before purchase. As general practice, keep the site on a currently supported PHP version rather than an end-of-life branch โ€” security patches stop at end of life regardless of what any individual plugin will tolerate.

JetReviews Pricing

There is no free version of JetReviews. The plugin ships as part of a paid Crocoblock subscription, and every plan is billed annually, covering one year of product updates and one year of support.

Two routes lead to the plugin.

Custom Subscription โ€” $43 / year

The entry point. Alongside JetReviews itself, the Custom Subscription includes Crocoblock’s AI-native website builder, one year of product updates, one year of Zoom and chat support, and AI-powered workflows. The header price block on the product page shows $43 per year.

Pick this option if reviews and ratings are the only gap in your build and you already have the rest of your stack sorted.

All-Inclusive Plus โ€” $249 / year

The full library. All-Inclusive Plus bundles 22 JetPlugins: JetMessenger, JetProductTables, JetGridBuilder, JetFormBuilder, JetAppointment, JetThemeCore, JetStyleManager, JetBooking, JetBlocks, JetTricks, JetReviews, JetTabs, JetMenu, JetWooBuilder, JetSmartFilters, JetPopup, JetProductGallery, JetCompareWishlist, JetSearch, JetBlog, JetEngine and JetElements. The AI-native website builder, a year of updates, a year of Zoom and chat support, and AI-native workflows are included on the same terms.

The bundle matters more than it first appears for this particular plugin. Several of the workflows that make JetReviews genuinely useful โ€” outputting reviews as a Listing, filtering content by star rating, dropping a reviews block into a custom template โ€” run through JetEngine, JetSmartFilters, and JetThemeCore. If you plan to use any of those, All-Inclusive Plus is the more honest comparison point rather than the single-plugin price.

Plan Price What’s included
Custom Subscription $43 / year JetReviews, AI-native website builder, 1 year updates, 1 year Zoom and chat support, AI-powered workflows
All-Inclusive Plus $249 / year 22 JetPlugins, AI-native website builder, 1 year updates, 1 year Zoom and chat support, AI-native workflows

Site licenses and renewals

Both plans are offered in a 1-site version and an unlimited-sites version. On the Crocoblock pricing page, the gap between the 1-site All-Inclusive plan and the unlimited-sites All-Inclusive Unlim plan is $200 per year โ€” a meaningful figure for agencies weighing per-client licensing against a single unlimited seat.

Crocoblock publishes a renewal price for subscriptions after the first year, and it may differ from the first-year rate.

A 30-day money-back guarantee applies, which gives you a reasonable window to build out a review type, wire it to a product archive, and decide whether the structure fits before the refund period closes.

Prices and promotions shift, so check the Crocoblock pricing page for the current rate before you buy.

Alternatives to JetReviews

For most buyers the real decision is which route into the plugin makes sense โ€” or whether native functionality already covers the job. The table below sets out the practical options.

Product Key Difference Best For Price Tier
JetReviews (Custom Subscription) The reviews plugin on its own, with custom review types, star, percent and point scales, photo uploads, and dashboard moderation Site owners who need structured ratings on one project and don’t want the wider JetPlugins bundle Annual subscription
JetReviews via All-Inclusive Plus Bundles 22 JetPlugins, including JetEngine, JetSmartFilters and JetThemeCore โ€” the plugins that add Listing output, rating filters, and template placement Agencies and freelancers already building with Crocoblock who will use the wider ecosystem Higher-tier annual subscription
WooCommerce built-in product reviews Native comment-based reviews with a single star rating, no custom review types, multi-criteria scales, or moderation extras beyond the WordPress comment queue Stores that only need basic five-star feedback on products Free with WooCommerce

Competitor data is sourced from publicly available information as of 2026 and may have changed.

The right pick depends on how much structure your reviews need. Basic product feedback rarely justifies a subscription, but multi-criteria scoring, custom review types across posts, users and events, and rating-based filtering push you toward JetReviews.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free version of JetReviews?

No. JetReviews is sold only as part of a paid Crocoblock subscription, with no free tier or limited edition on offer. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies if the plugin doesn’t fit your project.

How much does JetReviews cost?

Crocoblock lists a Custom Subscription from $43 per year and an All-Inclusive Plus subscription at $249 per year, both annual terms covering one year of updates and support. All-Inclusive Plus bundles 22 JetPlugins โ€” including JetEngine, JetSmartFilters, JetThemeCore, and JetWooBuilder โ€” alongside the AI-native website builder. On the Crocoblock pricing page, the gap between the 1-site All-Inclusive plan and the unlimited-sites All-Inclusive Unlim plan is $200 per year.

Does JetReviews work with WooCommerce product reviews?

Yes. The plugin displays star ratings on WooCommerce product pages and can import existing WooCommerce product reviews into its own review system. WooCommerce must be installed for these product review features to work.

Can I use JetReviews with Gutenberg or Bricks instead of Elementor?

Yes. JetReviews works with the Gutenberg block editor and the Bricks builder as well as Elementor, and it runs on standard WordPress themes. Your choice of editor doesn’t restrict access to the review types or rating scales.

Do I need JetEngine to use JetReviews?

No, the plugin functions on its own for creating review types, collecting reviews, and moderating them. JetEngine becomes relevant when you want to output reviews and comments as a Listing, just as JetSmartFilters handles filtering and sorting content by star rating and JetThemeCore places a reviews section inside a custom page template.

Does JetReviews add rating schema for rich snippets?

Yes. Review ratings are output as schema markup, which allows search engines to display aggregate ratings as rich snippets in results.

Can you moderate reviews before they go live in JetReviews?

Yes. Submitted reviews land in a moderation queue in the WordPress dashboard, where you approve or reject them before publication. That applies to reviews collected on any content type the plugin is attached to.

Does JetReviews send email notifications for new reviews?

Yes. Email notifications for new submissions are configured under WordPress Dashboard > Crocoblock > JetPlugins Settings > JetReviews > Advanced.

What rating scales does JetReviews support?

Three: star, percent, and point. You choose the scale when building a review type, which makes multi-criteria scoring possible using point or percent values rather than a single star figure.

Does JetReviews support WPML for multilingual sites?

Yes. WPML compatibility was added in version 2.0.7, released on October 14, 2024.
