Which of the these two add-ons will give us the more control over our microdata: "Site Structured Data" or "Rich google search results"?

Without any add-ons, our data appears as the screenshot on the right-hand side (see attachment). We want it to appear more like the screenshot on the left-hand side. Does anyone have any experience with these two add-ons who can help us make an informed decision on which one to purchase?

Rich Google Search Results module only provides structured data for products and reviews. Maybe breadcrumbs too, not sure. It changes the html code of the site. It uses microdata to output the info. So all the data is somewhat spread throughout the whole site.

Site Structured Data module will give you products, reviews, breadcrumbs, logo, search box, corporate data, social links. It uses the JSON-LD format which is Google recommended way of providing structured data. It doesn't change any html coding on the site. It doesn't get in the middle of the html source, instead it is added at the end of the page in its own block.

As the developer of the Site Structured Data module giving you an advice to get that module may seem like a push but it is better. It does give you more for almost same cost.

What you have right now is not structured data. Not sure but it looks like it is coming from Facebook OpenGraph - most likely the Socialize module?
