Opus Cart Upsell Cart Drawer and UpsellPlus Checkout Upsell are both highly-rated (5/5) Shopify apps designed to boost AOV through upsells and cross-sells. Opus focuses on a comprehensive cart customization and upsell funnel approach, enhancing the cart drawer with features like progress bars, free gifts, and urgency timers. Its strength lies in its 'code-free customization' and its ability to turn the cart into a 'revenue-generating engine.' In contrast, UpsellPlus emphasizes checkout upsells, post-purchase offers, and thank you page customization, offering flexibility across the product page, cart, checkout, and post-purchase stages. UpsellPlus also highlights checkout extensions, including the ability to show reviews and banners, however, modifying the checkout page is Shopify Plus exclusive. Opus targets merchants seeking a complete overhaul of their cart experience with a broader range of features to encourage spending during the pre-checkout phase. It appears to be geared towards merchants who want a more all-in-one solution for cart optimization and abandoned cart recovery. UpsellPlus, on the other hand, caters to merchants looking to specifically optimize the checkout and post-purchase funnel, offering more targeted upsell opportunities and customization options in these critical stages of the customer journey. Given the Shopify Plus exclusivity of some features, it may be especially suited for larger enterprises already leveraging the Shopify Plus platform. Opus also has a notably higher number of reviews, suggesting wider adoption and established market presence.

For merchants seeking a holistic cart optimization experience, with tools like free gift incentives, progress bars, and abandoned cart analytics, Opus Cart Upsell Cart Drawer appears to be the stronger choice. Its 'code-free customization' also makes it attractive for merchants without technical expertise. It would be ideal for stores looking to increase AOV through pre-checkout incentives.
However, for Shopify Plus merchants, or those heavily invested in optimizing the checkout and post-purchase funnel, UpsellPlus Checkout Upsell offers a more specialized approach. Its ability to modify the checkout page (albeit Shopify Plus exclusive) and its focus on one-click post-purchase upsells provide a more targeted solution. If maximizing revenue immediately *after* the initial sale is the primary goal, UpsellPlus might be the better option.
Opus Cart Upsell Cart Drawer offers more features specifically designed for customizing the cart drawer, including rewards bars and free gift incentives. UpsellPlus' primary focus is on checkout and post-purchase, offering cart drawer upsells but less in-depth customization.
Both apps state that no developer is required. Opus highlights its 'code-free customization,' while UpsellPlus claims 'no developer required,' suggesting both are designed for ease of use without needing technical expertise.
Opus Cart Upsell Cart Drawer explicitly states 'Recover sales by tracking & understanding why customers leave' offering an Abandoned Cart Analytics feature. UpsellPlus doesn't explicitly mention abandoned cart recovery.
UpsellPlus Checkout Upsell features the ability to 'Customize thank you page with reviews, upselling and cross-selling, & more.' Opus doesn't mention thank you page customization.
UpsellPlus Checkout Upsell is particularly advantageous for Shopify Plus users because they can unlock the ability to modify the checkout page with upsells, shipping bars, and more - a feature not available to standard Shopify users.
