Locationes vs Yext
Short answer. Yext is an enterprise location-data platform: business information pushed to 200+ publishers, local pages, reviews and search, sold annually per location through a quote. Locationes is a Google-only operations tool for the same profiles at $12 per location, with a review queue, live alerts, a profile score and nine reports. Yext suits a brand that needs one version of the truth across hundreds of directories and a local website; Locationes suits one with forty Google profiles, an unanswered review backlog and a report nobody trusts.

Locationes vs Yext
When Locationes is the better fit
- Google is the channel that matters. If discovery happens in Search and Maps, syndicating to two hundred directories is a cost without a matching return. Locationes does the Google profile properly, which is why it can charge $6.
- You need the review work done. A queue, templates, translation, bulk reply and a record of reviews Google removed. Yext's centre of gravity is data distribution, not a daily reply shift.
- The bill has to be predictable. Four bands, every feature, three-day trial, no annual commitment.
- You want the alert, not the audit. Permission problems, closures, duplicates and edits in review become a weekly list.
When Yext is the better fit
- You need listings beyond Google. Two hundred publishers, duplicate suppression and structured data at scale, with no equivalent here.
- You need local landing pages. Yext Pages builds and hosts pages tied to the same data set; Locationes builds nothing.
- You need one source of truth across a messy estate. Hundreds of locations, several brands, providers rather than stores.
- Procurement wants one enterprise contract. Annual billing and a single renewal are legitimate requirements a monthly product does not always meet.
What 23 locations cost
| Locationes | Yext | |
|---|---|---|
| Unit | $10.00 per location / month (11–50 band) | Quote, annual, per location |
| 23 locations | $230 / month | Not published |
| Indicative annual | $1,518 | Third-party contract data reports $800–$2,500 per location per year at 10–100 locations |
| Small-business listings | Included | Corvo: free scan and fixes; $40/mo Plus (US and Canada) |
Yext publishes no enterprise pricing. The range is third-party transaction data from 2026, not a quote. Its small-business listings moved to Corvo between October and November 2026; the $199–$999 per-location tiers reported earlier are not current.
FAQ
Is Yext only a listings tool?
No. It also sells local pages, reviews, search and analytics, and most enterprise customers buy a bundle. Listings is the most familiar part and the clearest overlap with a profile tool.
What happened to Yext's $199-a-year plans?
They were retired. Between October and November 2026 PowerListings became Corvo: a free scan and fix for Google, Apple Maps, Bing and Facebook, plus $40 a month for a wider directory list in the US and Canada.
Can Locationes replace Yext?
Only if your requirement is Google profiles plus reporting. For 200+ directories, local pages or entity management across brands, it does not.
