Funnelytics is a powerhouse sales funnel tool that allows you to map our your funnels and impress clients in your proposal, or with the paid version display your traffic and profits, as well as track live traffic and conversions between stages.
This gives you amazing insight into your sales process and where you need to make improvements.
It also saves you money in the long run by knowing where you should stop spending money because certain ads or funnel steps aren’t working out.
Show this to clients and it’s sure to impress.
With the monthly pricing starting at $199 per month, you may be wondering what alternatives are out there and how the pricing and functionality compares to Funnelytics.
While there are alternatives, I’d preface by saying they each have a separate space in your business depending on what you are using them for.
I would also mention that Funnelytics has an amazing 14-Day Trial that allows you to dive in and fall in love.
But if that doesn’t interest you, we will look more into Funnelytics alternatives below.
Geru – The Funnel Simulator
Geru started out as it’s own company, but was eventually purchased by ClickFunnels in April of 2022. This means that it has solid backing and upkeep as it’s part of a much larger company.
While a lot of people compare Geru vs Funnelytics at the same level, Geru brands itself more as a funnel simulator.
Forecasting is something that Funnelytics is currently still working on adding to 2.0, but it’s one of Geru’s main functions.
You still build funnels with drag-and-drop methods, and you can still add snapshots to represent your actual funnel within the canvas area.
The big difference is that Geru doesn’t have functionality to track actual analytics and data. It is for simulation.
Funnelytics has most of the functionality that Geru has, and they plan to add the forecasting (simulation) back to Funnelytics 2.0 at some point in the future. One thing Geru does have is a really cool feature that Funnelytics is yet to get.
The Dream Profit Goal report lets you take stats that you’ve entered into the different steps of your funnel and add a profit goal that you want to reach that year.
Once you enter your amount, Geru will calculate the amount of traffic you will need based on your current conversion rates, traffic costs, and other expenses that you have input into the system.
Some very cool reporting that Funnelytics has yet to get, therefore a totally different use within your business framework.
Unfortunately, Geru has recently moved away from their lifetime deal to monthly and annual pricing starting at $37/mo for standard, $79/mo for Pro, $97/mo for Agency, and $199/mo for Agency Plus.
They also currently lack the ability to track live visitors through your sales funnel. It takes a lot of infrastructure to be able to track live data, and Geru doesn’t seem to want to build that out to add this feature.
It’s really cool to be able to plan and simulate what a funnel could be, but my problem right now with Geru is that you don’t get any live data tracking to act on.
MarketPlan.io – The Marketing Planner
Marketplan.io has a lot of cool features. You are able to map your funnel on the canvas just like in Funnelytics.
The lifetime deal for Marketplan.io is also over.
Marketplan.io pricing starts you out for free with limited capabilities. Their starter plan is $9/mo for 10 plans and still limited tools. Pro is $927/mo and allows for unlimited plans. Their agency plan is $797/mo and allows up to 15 users, 50,000 page views.
What is the Best Funnel Mapper?
For overall use and value as a funnel mapper, I always give the award to Funnelytics since you can map and track (and hopefully forecast again soon).
You can easily save money by seeing which traffic sources are driving conversions, and therefore which ones aren’t working and you can quit spending money on.
All that said, I have lifetime deals to all 3 software, and they all serve different uses in my business.
I like the funnel math functionalities that Geru offers, and will often rebuild out my funnel that I’m tracking in Funnelytics with my current stats so I can do some higher-level calculations such as seeing how much traffic I need to drive to hit my dream income goal.
Marketplan.IO is the software I use for full-scale plans on how I plan to promote my funnel. It’s great for laying a full funnel project out and tracking due dates and content pieces that need to be created.
It all depends on what you need functionality for in your business, but given the alternatives, I would start with Funnelytics every time.
