- It's hard to find an honest comparison of marketing tools online. Most affiliates only know 1 tool and are compensated for giving it a nice review... But my goal online is to help you find the PERFECT tool for your next project, and today we you will get an honest side by side comparison of 8 different tools that I have personal experience with.
Building a successful sales funnel is hard work, and you want to make sure your tools will work well for your purposes. So today we will compare:
1) Clickfunnels
2) Kartra - incomemesh.com...
3) Thrivecart - incomemesh.com...
4) Samcart
5) SendOwl - incomemesh.com...
6) Cartflows - incomemesh.com...
7) Teachable - startamomblog....
8) Podia
The links above are affiliate links - not because they have the best affiliate program, but because they are the tools I can honestly recommend (depending on what's important to you)
Enjoy the comparison!
Is cart flow can be use with getresponce mail campain?
I've been following you and taking your advice for a long time now John. The Wordpress solution has SO many parts to it. For technical guys like us, you could say that's ok. But what about people who don't like complication and managing every single plugin, update, sub-service.
Yep exactly and I’m sensitive to that which is why I also talk about Kartra and other hosted solutions :) thanks for the comment!
Having too much fun :) I'm eating snacks and building my website while watching your handy videos (must be Netflix). I am leaning towards Cartflows for site speed, simplicity, and money-savings. Perhaps I'll consider ThriveCart when my site becomes more profitable. QUESTION: May you provide a link for the purchase of the desk, which you use in all of your videos, please?
Glad I can be as entertaining as Netflix!! Woo woo! Desk is www.autonomous.ai/ - nice because it can sit and stand and remember my individual height settings... but it's a bit wobbly. I moved recently and maybe that's the culprit but it's good quality for the price...
Amazing video. Buying cartflows with your link :-)
Woot! Thanks so much!
Thank you for the good comparison. It helped me a lot. And I love your videos. I am already a fan. I hope your channel will grow as fast as the one of WPCrafter.
Which additional WooCommerce plugins do you like to use for your CartFlows+WooCommerce+LearnDash setup?
Thanks so much for the kind words Boris! I'm glad my content is helpful :) I'll definitely do a video about my entire stack that I use to deliver online courses - but I am still making some tweaks to improve the user experience. One plugin that you definitely want if you use LearnDash is Uncanny Owl Toolkit - it fills in most of the gaps that Learndash leaves open
@@johncreates Thank you for the recommendation. I am looking forward to your future videos.
@ John from Income Mesh - Great video. Some of these I have looked at before and know about like you no idea Podia existed. And WooFunnels looks good too, not in the review but in comments. But I think the trump card here is the team that is putting CartFlows together. They are outstanding (not to say WooFunnels team isn't). Edited to say... CartFlows has come a long way since you made this video, getting better all the time. And the FREE version found in the WordPress.org plugin library isn't bad either, can't beat the price. But I have CartFlows Pro.
Cartflows is definitely developing quickly! Thanks for the comments!
Between Kartra , Leadpages and Builderall , which is better?
It's between LeadPages and Kartra. I lean towards Kartra because you can simplify almost 100% of the tech in your business under its roof, but Lead Pages is specialized in just landing pages, so it will probably have slightly better templates and such
QUESTION: If I invest in Cartflows is ConvertPro still useful?
You must not just ignore the huge amount of knowledge that CF provides. Check out funnel flix if you don't know this plattform yet. A Pro like you will not need that stuff, but it has huge value to beginners to the sales funnel game. And to me, guarantees like money back etc. matter as well.
On the other hand, you didn't mention that CF is no solution for ecom, at least no independent one.
Nice overview though, thank you very much indeed.
You're right, Clickfunnels provides a TON of training and I really like Russell. But the topic was on best software, not best training... and I have several friends who consistently pull their hair out because of Clickfunnels :(
I think you missed one very important piece of information about cartflows. After the first year of payment, you do not have to pay the annual fee in order to use it but you won't be able to have access to updates or support. I'm going for cartflows because of the price tag and WordPress integration.
Sorry but that's the wrong way to think about it. A single update to woocommerce will break your entire website. You must pay the annual fee to keep your business safe
I understand but wouldn't that be a choice of the customer since it's an option?
@@johncreates, I understand but wouldn't that be a choice by the customer since it's an option?
Sure, it is an option to cancel your subscription and keep an outdated plugin active on your site, but I would not recommend it as it introduces vulnerabilities to your site. If it was a very small plugin, maybe... but we are talking people's credit cards and private information... I can't in good faith recommend you let that license expire.
i was sold with sendowl, but the link doesnt work
Thanks for letting me know - which link didn't work? I just tested all of them and it seemed to work fine. I'm sure you already found a solution but I'd love a response to make sure that the video is still useful for future watchers!
Why wasn't Kajabi listed in your comparison? In my mind its in the top 3.
Good observation Michael and it honestly may be top 3 - I just ran out of budget to test even MORE software lol :)
Hello, I really enjoyed the video. I'm having a difficult time trying to find a funnel builder that I can utilize Braintree credit card processing. Our site is on WP using Woocommerce so Cartflows seemed really good but they only allow the use of Paypal and Stripe. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Unfortunately I think that is a limitation of Braintree... Haven't seen one that works well there :(
are you not able to use cartflows with braintree you mean ??? i am not clear on what you mean ? ( i ask becausd my options are slso limited since i don t have too strip : (
Excellent! You solved my research problem. Thanks!
Hooray!! 👊
Expected a less biased review towards cartflows, probably sponsored by them as well. They're very expensive as a wordpress add on with limited features
Hey thank you so much for the reviews, I really want to go forward with cart flows, I heard from many people that using WordPress the wrong way could result in bad security for the site and eventually hacking. Do you have any advice on how to secure my site? Do I have to purchase something for the hosting company or implement Plugins to my website?
Thanks for the excellent in-depth comparison, John!
You are so welcome!
What's your favorite Appsumo purchase? 😁
Hmmm great question :) I really haven't bought too many, but my top 3 at the moment are RelayThat for social images, BookLikeABoss for scheduling client work, and Userback for managing client project feedback. I also bought a chatbot that I think has a lot of potential but I haven't spent the time to dig into it yet. Still in my 60 days :) And you?
Great job!
So from a a newbie perspective who's just getting started... If I'm choosing between Thrive Architect & Elementor Pro, would Cartflow be a good option to add to either of those platforms down the road?...also, do you see any potential problems w/ integration of Cartflow onto either of those platforms?
Thanks.
Great question! In my opinion Thrive Themes has the best integration with SendOwl - it directly integrates with your online courses to make protection super simple. Cartflows, on the other hand works with WooCommerce - so I would use Elementor Pro + Cartflows or Thrive Themes + SendOwl :) Great question!
@@johncreates That's a great answer! Thanks for the help!
Happy to help :) Caught me at the keyboard!
You put a lot into these. Well done. Very informative and clear. I'm a big Kartra fan. Switching from Kajabi over.
Mike Klingler Hey Mike...still using/recommend Kartra by chance?
Hi John. Quick question. For physical products sales funnel. Do I go with Elementor Pro or Thrive Architect + cartflows?
Also - How do you fulfill the orders on wordpress? Do you need another plugin or woocomerce does that? I currently use shopify and clickfunnels. Thanks
Same thing i wanna know please.
What about Get Response?
Sorry, I don’t have much experience with Get Response
Very good explanation. Much appreciate it.
thx for the great review!
Thanks for the great comment!
Great Job, thanks for information
Great comparisons. Thanks!
Kajabi maybe?
Too bad they do not provide monthly payment instead of that Annual fee.
Well you get 30 websites with your license... I’m sure you could build a single funnel for a client and earn $300 within your 30 day money back guarantee :)
@@johncreates do they offer free trial?
I don't think so - normally free trials and 30 day money backs don't both get offered on the same products. Maybe first line up a client that would like a sales funnel, then you can purchase Cartflows and get your money back quickly
@@johncreates That's the problem. Spending 300$ and then if by any chance you don't like it would be a huge waste of investment, but thanks for the video and reply. :)
You have 30 days to get your money back :)
ThriveCart is getting new design customisation :) (I also use CartFlows)
Oh that's exciting! I also saw their subscription updates - the team over there is really committed to the product
@@johncreates They are a great team! Convertbox is awesome as well as it allows popups on your checkout should someone try to abandon the cart. Very sleek :) I intend to try and get a channel up dedicated to things like carts and conversions...if I can be one tenth as good as you are, i'll be happy! Keep up the great work man
Why are so few people talking about WooFunnels, I wonder... Wih the UpStroke feature everybody can play because it is the only upsell plugin that works without the need for PayPal Reference transactions, and all that that implies. I wonder.
Thanks for the comment. PayPal reference transactions are a thing of the past now with Cartflows so that’s a moot point. I honestly played with woofunnels for a bit but I just saw better things coming with Cartflows
@@johncreates Thanks for the reply, John! When you say reference transaction is a moot point in Cartflows; are you saying that for the rest of the world too? Or, are you talking about in the States, or similar only? Thanks in advance.
Hey Scott - on their website they mention in their changelog on Feb 14: Upsells Without PayPal Reference Transcations
Having trouble getting reference transactions enabled on your PayPal account. Now you can offer 1 click upsells and downsells without reference transactions.
I'm not 100% sure if that's global or US only, but given that there is a global team working on the plugin I would think they'd specify if it was location specific - but you can use the chatbot on their website to ask to be sure :) incomemesh.com/cartflows
