ClickFunnels is second to none. The other software companies trying to replicate ClickFunnels do not even come close. ClickFunnels' ease of use over their competitors is levels above. Also, ClickFunnels' Live support line is quick, get the job done every time and goes over and …
Chose ClickFunnels
Clickfunnels makes it easier to create to multi-step funnels, when compared to creating single pages and linking via manual URLs and redirects etc with Wordpress
Chose ClickFunnels
I went with ClickFunnels due to recommendation by a digital marketing mentor. WordPress to me had too much maintenance in the background and it was more time consuming to build pages at the time. Mailchimp is an email marketing software with a website builder and landing …
Chose ClickFunnels
ClickFunnels has been the easiest solution when it comes to building sales funnels. I have also been using them for a very long time, so the time it takes to learn a new software is not worth it for me. ClickFunnels has all the solutions at the moment.

Chose ClickFunnels
I really don't use Leadpages all that much and it's quite a bit different than ClickFunnels. Leadpages were used to track leads from my email campaigns but I never really had any call to action, ClickFunnels has a specific set of steps that I want the prospect to take at that …
Chose ClickFunnels
They've done a great job of centralizing tools such as checkout order forms, form submissions, easy-to-use drag-and-drop editor, and email automation all in one tool. ClickFunnels is an overall hefty funnel software and was our game-changer when we first launched it.
Chose ClickFunnels
Kajabi is far superior to CF when it comes to delivering course content to an audience, but CF has a much bigger community and support network. CF has developed a legacy of building funnels, where Kajabi has just added the feature to its stack. There's a ton you can do with …
Chose ClickFunnels
ClickFunnels has everything that all three of those competitors offer (WordPress, Leadpages, and Kajabi). They have a good landing page editor with many templates, you can use custom code/HTML if necessary to go beyond the WYSIWYG page editor, you can create a full-function …
Chose ClickFunnels
This was my first funnel usage and very happy with it. It was great in terms of support, and I guarantee if you have the knowledge or experience of funnels already, you'll be that successful. But unfortunately, I can't compare them to anyone else, never had the opportunity …
Chose ClickFunnels
Infusionsoft has a better campaign builder, but lacks the ease and customization of ClickFunnels' page builder, and you can't create a series of pages like you can in ClickFunnels.

Overall, Infusionsoft is way more robust, but ClickFunnels makes a great sidekick to a CRM that …
Chose ClickFunnels
Although I believe they serve different purposes since HubSpot has a website builder, I can easily say that ClickFunnels can build pages much better than HubSpot. HubSpot's magic is in their CRM, which is connected to their automated intelligence that reports metrics in an easy …
Chose ClickFunnels
ClickFunnels is a more robust option with more features and functionality. It's more expensive, but it's worth it if you need the extra features and your in-house web-development resources are limited. There's also a strong Facebook community to tap into for advice and guidance …

  • Ontraport is too hard and far more complicated than ClickFunnels.
  • Samcart - took a test drive but no training, bad funnel support, and there wasn't email automation.

We use Builderall now, and it's been such a better upgrade for our business. We even recommend it to clients, too and help them use it and get the most out of it.
Chose ClickFunnels
The biggest alternative I am familiar with to ClickFunnels is Leadpages. I felt Leadpages was nice overall, and it is more cost-effective than ClickFunnels. It had drag-and-drop, and also templates to use. However, to me Leadpages felt like another piece in a giant web I was …
Chose ClickFunnels
The other programs have similar features and all work to capture leads and grow a business. The difference is the marketing support training behind the platforms. Since I have learned from people inside ClickFunnels, I feel the software makes the most sense for me.
Chose ClickFunnels
I have been on Thinkific, Udemy, MailChimp, Teachable, and had to jump to too many other places. I get distracted doing that.
Chose ClickFunnels
Clickfunnels and GetResponse - I actually prefer the user experience of GetResponse (easier navigation, more standard spacing and design), but I'd still choose Clickfunnels over GetResponse because of the user community and replicable templates.
Wishpond - I would choose …
Chose ClickFunnels
ClickFunnels is not only a funnel builder but there are a lot of other extra features at the same price of their competitors with fewer features. Also, they have a young team and a lot of communities online where you can interact and get tips from to create the most powerful …
Chose ClickFunnels
I used the Ontraport landing page system for a couple of months and was really unhappy with the way it integrated with my email system and wasn't very customizable. Squarespace has an extremely limited capacity for landing pages and email/funnel integrations. Basically, the two …
Chose ClickFunnels
We now work with Hubspot, as we needed a full marketing automation platform. ClickFunnels outperformed Leadpages in terms of functionality and price, but underperformed in terms of drag and drop builder and design elements.
Chose ClickFunnels
ClickFunnels is the easiest to use. You don't need to be a developer or designer to create good looking funnels that convert. Our entire team uses it. It's easy to integrate with other tools and payment processors. They provide a wide range of template funnels you can use for …
Chose ClickFunnels
Definitely, ClickFunnels stands out from other landing page builders because it's a very robust and solid application. The way the whole app is built makes you more confident when creating a campaign that needs to hold traffic the right way. The customer service is a plus and …
Chose ClickFunnels
I have used other landing page services before - LeadPages, Infusionsoft, Unbounce, WordPress, among others to utilize funnels in our business. The easiest to use for us was ClickFunnels. Along with the mentorship, the ease of use of the product, and the success of the product, …
Chose ClickFunnels
I left Ontraport before the end of my free trial because it wasn't intuitive or flexible in creating landing pages. That was an immediate deal breaker for me.

Chose Squarespace
Squarespace is more user-friendly and sleek. I'd recommend it over Freenom for beginners and those who are more interested in running a website (instead of caring about their DNS).
Chose Squarespace
I like Squarespace better if you are starting from scratch. I was able to use Wordpress when it was an existing site and I just had to make updates, but would have a difficult time starting from the beginning and building a Wordpress site.

In my opinion, Squarespace beats Wix all day. We have used both for microsite development. We use Wordpress for our main site as the featureset is open source and is considered the industry best practice. You can do a lot more specific features with WordPress that are sometimes …

Squarespace if much less work than WordPress, plus hosting and security are not an issue. GoDaddy and Wix are okay, but nowhere near the flexibility or advanced feature set that you can get with Squarespace. Compared to the other products that I have used, Squarespace …
Chose Squarespace
We picked Squarespace for a specific use case because it was easy to spin up the promotional content we needed.
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace is easy to use, webflow can feel clunky (though I haven’t tried it recently), and Wix is very similar, but I preferred the Squarespace aesthetic. Also, Squarespace has clear, transparent pricing - you know what you get, and I like the design styles. I’m not in a …
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace was the quickest to get up and running for a basic website, and with the GoDaddy integration it simplified rapid setup. A plugin for basic language translation allowed us to be compliant from day one.
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace was quicker to set up and more accessible to manipulate the theme, pictures, and content. The page layouts are more versatile and fluid. With Wordpress, more time-consuming efforts go into making a template work the way you want it to (because of the lack of the …

Submittable and Squarespace serve different functions but Squarespace is by far the easier and more user friendly platform.

Wordpress is for more advanced users and allows more functionality to be built into the website. However, Squarespace is easy to use and you will be able to get a functioning website up and running on your own. That is their main point and purpose for their mission. However, …
Chose Squarespace
I would choose Squarespace over all the competition unless I wanted a website builder/host that had an online course portal. Squarespace has the easiest website builder. It's relatively cheap. It automatically updates. It is easy to integrate with third-party services such as …
Chose Squarespace
Both of my fields are visual, so design is as important as functionality. Unbounce looks great, but it's not set up for the same full functionality. I've also been quite familiar with Squarespace and felt comfortable with them.
Chose Squarespace
Not even comparable. I was hacked within 2 years with WordPress in a brute force attack. Since going to Squarespace, I have had zero security issues. I feel the two platforms, though similar, are incomparable.
Chose Squarespace
I found it easier for me to use square space myself rather than have a middle person between me and my website. It was a lot easier for me to access and change something and when I wanted to change something on my site. It gave me flexibility and more options to utilize my …
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace's most attractive feature in comparison to WordPress and Wix is its library of themes available to use. WordPress has a neverending supply of options but that's WordPress, the industry-standard however the limited options for Squarespace is nice so you aren't …
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace offers better SEO options and ease of use than Wix/Weebly site builders. Squarespace is easy to manage and easy to track inventory and sales. For companies with lower skill sets in-house, it is also very easy to train staff to manage the platform.

I liked the usability of Squarespace better than Network Solutions for the type of website we were looking for. I found it was easier to create and customize and I liked the overall look of the website in Squarespace better than what the end result of the Network Solutions site …

Myself and my team have used more robust web development platforms for bigger organization presence on the web. However that has always required more time, effort and talent by using web developers to setup and add content to the sites. With squarespace, a site can be setup in …
Chose Squarespace
Squarespace is the best option relative to other web hosting and design platforms we initially reviewed. It was a bit more expensive than some of the free models we looked at but those sites often came with hidden fees if we wanted to customize anything and Squarespace has …

I actually ended up going with Wordpress's OShine theme. Squarespace just missed some of the SEO and API tracking that I wanted and Elementor was too slow and WP Rocket isn't compatible with it. OShine ended up fitting the bill so everything I wanted could work together, but …
Chose Squarespace
I really like Squarespace's all-in-one concept vs. WordPress, where you add each piece individually. However, if you are building a much larger site, WordPress may be better. For our needs in terms of sales, Squarespace was great.

Likelihood to Recommend
If you're wanting to do some digital advertising on Google, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, or another network, and need a tool to quickly create landing pages on your own. This is a fairly affordable tool to get that done, and it has some nice gizmos and gadgets to make your pages look and function great. It's also a great tool if you have digital products to sell online such as courses, eBooks, or consulting services. You can easily set up sales funnels to capture leads with some content and then upsell them with a "ladder" of products.

We've found Squarespace perfect for quick, well-designed websites that you can literally design and launch in a day. However, if you want to get more complex with your website, including custom backend integrations or code, Squarespace presents a bit more of a challenge when it comes to what they will allow you to modify on their platform (especially using third-party integration apps).

Pros
  • Intuitive Workflows: ClickFunnels makes it very easy for a non-technical person to build a gated content or other opt-in workflow. We’ve tried many different platforms, and ClickFunnels was definitely the easiest to use with the least learning curve.
  • Built-in shopping cart and e-commerce features: Other softwares require an integration or custom coding; ClickFunnels keeps the process in-house, which saved us a huge headache.
  • All-In-One Solution: ClickFunnels has the functionality of multiple pieces of software at one low price. We were able to keep our costs down and our process streamlined into one product.
  • Lots of training materials: from the YouTube channel to the guides and templates, ClickFunnels sets you up for success with all the tools to get you up and running fast.

  • Squarespace is very easy to use, this is a super helpful thing as small business owners we have to wear many hats and being a full blown website developer doesn't need to be one of them.
  • Squarespace has quick and simple plugins.
  • Squarespace allows you to easily expand as you need to.

Cons
  • The initial setup can be confusing and a little time-consuming. The best thing we have learned is to not try to start a client from scratch with ClickFunnels, ideally, they should already be using it.
  • The only other thing is integrating ClickFunnels in with a clients Domain, which can take some backend development.

  • Customizing the sites can be highly UN intuitive
  • Navigation for editing the sites can be difficult and frustrating
  • Squarespace has different versions and it's hard to know which version you're on. You can't switch after you start making a site with one version.

I use the funnel on a daily basis and spent a significant sum to hire someone to set this up and design the funnel, there's no way I won't renew the funnel. It is easy to maintain, very cost-effective, and doesn't require a lot of my time to manage properly.

It's a great CMS tool. Easy to use and maintain. It looks great and the support is excellent.

Usability
It's decent, but the interior user experience and end user experience needs a lot of improvement. I would want some UX individuals to go through the site and make specific recommendations and changes: User navigation, user experience feels a bit cheap. It needs to be standardized with spacing, and sometimes the platform can be buggy as well. The user does need some education to use it - straight out of the box, it may or may not make sense

It's dead simple to use. There are no over complicated controls or tons of menus to screw things up. People with bad taste couldn't make an ugly website. While it may be frustrating for the pro designer to get exactly what they want, it prevents the uninitiated from making something ugly

Support Rating
I don't think you should have to wait for more than an hour or two to get in touch with someone when you need support. Because they primarily have overseas help, it's typically at least until the next business day until you get help. Then there is the language barrier to deal with. It's not ideal. I have contacted support a few times and have gotten answers. However, I consider myself much savvier than most in terms of understanding all the behind the scenes issues that go on with building a website and online marketing funnels. So if I were a beginner or not as familiar with how to code and create websites, I would think the support is terrible.
Read full review
Help is available directly from the back end and uses full sentence searching to find answers to questions others may have asked before. With a ton of articles and support questions documents, it is very likely that your question has been answered. If not each page has the ability to open a direct email to support. Each case has a number and can be followed. Responses are often quick and have links and directions clearly stated

Yes, I highly recommend you hire an expert for this. While CF claims that anyone can set up a funnel, there's a difference between having a funnel and having a funnel that works. Between the design and the copy you use, unless you have a marketing background, hire an expert.

Also, ClickFunnels' Live support line is quick, get the job done every time and goes over and above to get it fixed right the first time.

Return on Investment
  • My clients make more money with it than without it
  • Other builders aren't necessarily better...we've tried and keep coming back to CF
  • If CF 2.0 (which launches around March I'm told) is anywhere near as impressive as Russell Brunson makes it sound, it will be a TOTAL game changer when compared to the current version...(which will still be available as well)

  • I can see how squarespace can improve efficiency since it's so quick to build a site on there.
  • For those who don't want to hook up a bunch of different stuff to their website and make it work...they most likely have whatever plug in you need and you can add it. Worst case scenario, they have developers you can hire who can make what you need.
  • As your business grows you can add an online storefront to your site and make more money that way! Easy peasy!
  • They have an easy system for adding special SEO words/phrases so you don't have to learn SEO at all!
