Research on online reviews has attracted extensive attention from scholars in the fields of marketing, information systems, and product development. At present, great progress has been made for online review research. However, due to the wide range of research on online reviews, there is no systematic conceptual framework. It lacks an overall understanding of online reviews. Therefore, this paper attempts to comprehensively summarize the online review research literature. From the perspective of behavioral influence, online reviews affect consumers ’purchasing behavior and enterprises’ business decisions. For the perspective of value application, online reviews are an important information source to obtain consumer needs. Enterprises gradually realize the value of online reviews for recommendation services, market analysis, and product development. On the basis of the literature review, the current technological development is combined with the market environment to derive three characteristics of online reviews: diversity, dynamics, and integration, which broadens the research boundary and provides the research opportunities.
