Amasty Store Locator vs. Mageplaza Store Locator
v4.7.2Whether shopping online or in-store, customers often look for information about physical store locations — such as addresses, opening hours, and stock availability — to plan their visit and verify the store’s credibility. If finding this information is too complicated or confusing, many customers will quickly abandon their purchase decision.
To make finding offline store locations a smooth experience, two excellent modules have been developed: the Amasty Store Locator extension and the Mageplaza Store Locator module. Both provide a user-friendly map interface, allowing customers to easily search, filter, and view details of nearby stores, thereby boosting conversion rates.
