SuiteCommerce Product Reviews

The SuiteCommerce Product Reviews feature lets shoppers review and rate items on your website. Shoppers can also view ratings and reviews from other shoppers. Ratings and reviews are displayed next to items on your website. Content from product reviews uses microdata markup so search engines can display review information for items in search results.
