Right now there is a battle going on between the 2 titans of product research: Helium 10 & Jungle Scout.
Both tools are fighting for the #1 spot as the best product research tool. Both of them have been adding features like crazy & altering their pricing structure to stay competitive. That is why I have decided to do another review and see which one I think is the best.
Jungle Scout vs Helium 10
I will base my decision on the following factors:
- Sales estimation accuracy
I feel like this is the core function of any product research tool. How accurate can they estimate sales when I am doing product research? - Features
Both tools are mainly centered around their Chrome Extension. However, they both offer a lot more features. Let’s find out which one offers more features! - Pricing
1). Accuracy
Ok, let’s put it to the test. I have around 18 active SKU’s so I can just take 3 of my own products and compare my actual sales of the last months vs what Jungle Scout & Helium 10 estimate.
| Actual Sales | Jungle Scout Estimate | Helium 10 Estimate | |
| Product A | 900 | 842 (94%) | 818 (91%) |
| Product B | 362 | 325 (90%) | 312 (86%) |
| Product C | 185 | 165 (89%) | 201 (91%) |
| Average accuracy | 91% | 89% |
As we can see from the test Jungle Scout is slightly more accurate. Only on the low volume product Helium 10 has a better estimate.
Winner: Jungle Scout

And this is what I mean with there is a huge battle going on between these to. 1 year ago these tools did not have half of these features. They are always adding more and more features trying to beat the competition. This is awesome for us Amazon sellers. As nowadays these tools are becoming an all-in-one solution. Where in the past you would need like 5 different tools to do all this!
IMO Helium has the upper hand when it comes to all the features that are offering. Unless you desperately need a giveaway platform, as that is one of the few things they don’t offer.
Winner: Helium 10
3). Pricing
Ok, this is where it gets interesting. So far we have established that Jungle Scout is more accurate, but Helium 10 has more features.
So let’s compare the prices!
Helium 10: $97 per month
Jungle Scout $39 per Month
Jungle Scout is significantly cheaper!
Winner: Jungle Scout

This was very informative and good! Thank you!
Thanks for your useful review. The links to free trials are wrong.
Oh wow. Thanks for letting me know! Fixed em now
Jungle scout charges based on how much you sell now. So it can quickly become more expensive for people selling more than 500 orders a month fba.
Thansk a lot.
i just relize yesterday that on products from patio, lawn and gardon category there is a huge difference between JS and H10
a BSR 1 in that category the asstimate sales on JS is 58.170 vs H10 28.252!!!
(I realized it when I check an item (256 BSR) with estimate sales on JS 10.113 vs H10 4.534
till I got to the end that in all items from the above category there is a huge difference.
so I am really confused who is more accurate. i did not check on the other categories.
now the this post. can you at least compare all your 18 SKUs with both tools and let us know your findings??
Thanks again!
