We’ve been using Sumo (or BDOW! now) for a while on our Shopify store. It’s been okay overall, but the limitations around targeting and domain limits are starting to hurt. Also, their paid plan caps us at 3 domains and 100K visitors, and we just crossed 170K monthly traffic.
Pricing is climbing and it’s hard to justify given the limited feature set (no phone call popups, no teaser popups, fewer integrations, and not the snappiest load speed either).
Looking for a better alternative that won’t cost a fortune as we scale. Preferably something with:

Advanced targeting
Gamification
Solid Shopify integration
Ad-free popups
Good analytics
Any suggestions?
I had similar pain with Sumo and switched a while ago. Check out Popupsmart — been very happy with it so far. It has:
OptiMonk is another one worth looking into. Their free plan is more generous (up to 10K PV), but like you mentioned, your traffic is 170K/month, so you’d hit the $249/month tier quickly.
Also, branding removal isn’t possible in free tier. So it’s decent for small stores but starts losing value as you grow.
Just adding on, I really appreciate Popupsmart’s teaser popup feature. Keeps UX nice and clean. Users click when they’re ready instead of being hit with a full-screen modal. More on teaser popups.
Also, they’ve got popups for WhatsApp call-back, mobile click-to-call, and others that Sumo doesn’t even touch. Great for service-based businesses!
