VERDICT

Should I use AppstorePulse?

Rankings, competitors, listing analytics, and real revenue & churn from your Partner account. Everything you need to run your Shopify app, in one place. - appstorepulse.com

Worth it. Buy it if you run one Shopify app and want rankings, competitor tracking, and revenue/churn in one cheap dashboard. Skip it if you manage many apps, publish outside Shopify, or need enterprise security posture.
