Any Solid Clickfunnels Alternatives??? (13)

---

We have been using clickfunnels for a while and it has a lot of good features, but it's lacking a lot and development seems to be pretty stagnant. (They just barely added an undo button to the page creator). Simple things like adding coupon codes and having the option for paypal and credit cards on the same checkout page aren't available without using outside code that can break when the do updates. So we've started looking around to see if there's something better out there. Here's what we have thought about so far.

Custom built with checkout software like 1automationwiz - we have thought about this and one thing that keeps us from going this route is. Right now it's pretty easy to throw up a page and split test things in click funnels. If we do it this way we are more relient on our coder and we have to wait around for any change to get made.

builderall - heard it's pretty buggy and support isn't very good.
kartra - this seems like it could be good from the reviews and their facebook group. If anyone has experience with this please let me know.

Another thing we have been looking at is to use Shopify but to mimic the function we use in click funnels. There's a lot of plugins so it's a lot of work sifting through and testing them. So far we've looked into

Page builders
Pagefly - Worked pretty well but I found click funnels easier to use. Probably because I've been using click funnels for so long
Shogun - Looking to test this in the next couple days.

Funnel software
Funnel builder - tested this seems ok, but read in the facebook group that theirs lots of bugs
Zipify one click upsell - going to test this next week. If anyone has experience I would love to hear it

Our setup is VSL-> Order page (product with order bump)-> Upsell->Downsell if upsell not purchased->Upsell->Order Confirmation page. We also have cart abandon emails and welcome emails and all that. It's all digital products so the user can access them in a members area after purchase. So that's another piece to setup.

Has anyone had any experience with this kind of setup outside of clickfunnels? Any tips would be much appreciated.

To make something similar to CF landers you can use:
zipify pages + Shopify + zipify OCU (ocu works great for me, also you can split test various products on upsells and downsells plus customize and sell on thank you page)
The only thing missing is "order bump" on order page. But obviously you can hire somebody to make it possible, like here.

Also check intercart.io for upsells, Tan brothers recently realized it to the public. I saw the info on their Ecom elites group on FB but didn't test it yet.

Thanks for that info. I am going to test out zipify OCU this week. Are you using zipify pages also? I heard it's pretty limited and you can only use the templates they provide. That's why I was going to test out shogun instead.

I was looking into intercart I signed up for it but they say there's a waiting list. I think they are just building hype and working out the bugs before the real release. Looks promising though.

I would not recommend using Zipify.
If you think ClickFunnels has its limitations, wait till you see how bad zipify is.
And let's not talk about how 90's the pages looks...

I am actually trying to find a solution like you for our Ecom offers as CF is buggy and are missing some keyparts too..

I have seen big guns run their own funnels with everything coded and set up, but not sure HOW.

Are you talking about Zipify Pages or OCU or both?

If it's just zipify pages I am not too worried there's a bunch of page builders out there. The main thing is getting the order bumps, one click upsales and downsales working.

There's some cart software like https://www.1automationwiz.com/shoppingcart.html where you can do that, but I am trying to avoid being to dependent on a developer for every change that needs to be made, but if I can't find a good option it might be the best way to go.

---

I'm talking about Zipify pages.

Heard good things about OCU so thats a good way to go..


I accidentally found a funnel builder similar to CF...

The pages looks more modern than the 90's look of CF pages --> https://www.convertri.com/

---

That for that I will check it out. I have been talking with support from these guys this week https://home.kartra.com/index they have an all in one solution like click funnels. They have a 30 day trial so I am going to test it out and see how it goes.

---

We did millions in clickfunnels, and we hated it. I constantly look for alternatives. From my experience they all suck. What we tested - Zipify OCU, page, funnel buildr, PayKickstart, carhook, bold one click upsell.

The issue with most of these software is that they are build by marketer. And marketers knows how to market but don’t know how to build solid products.

I feeel ya.

Why aren't we building our own funnels like many top guys are doing?


I talked to my dev guy the other day and sent him this page as an example -> https://www.familyguardpro.com/en/in...Ue58m-qA_39xEg

I asked him if it would be hard to code everything together with payment gateways etc.

He said it's a simple process to do it and that it would be much cleaner and better code than using CF of course...


My only concern is speed of implementation...

How much slower OR faster would i be able to spit out new funnels?
I can spit out a full blown ecom funnel in a couple of hours in ClickFunnels today.

But once again i really tihnk CF is limited and buggy.
And i'm looking for the next step to this.

---

both.. they're are diferent apps developed by zipify, pages is a builder and OCU is only for upsells, but as you've said you can use any page builder there.

---

Thank for info guys, if anyone tries convertri or kartra, please share results here.
Added them to my long term to do list

Imho, CF still the best solution for quick tests, buggy as shit, but still my choice.

OCU is a must have for every Shopify store, even if you run directly to product page, post checkout upsells improve AOV.
It also will mess your CR stats on analytics page, but you'll be ok with Google Analytics.

---

I just told my Dev guy to try and make me my own funnel with a admin backend where i can control everything.

Will update how the end result is.

---

We actually did build our own solution. That I won’t recommend to anyone here though. We have solid software engineering background. And I understand the works involved to make this work.

There are a lot of moving pieces - integrating payment gateways, Being PCI complaint, order fulfillment integration, email integration, server monitoring, tracking analytics. Etc.

On top of all that, you certainly will not gain efficiency as you mentioned, you can build out a funnel in a few hours. But dev will certainly take days if not weeks to build a new funnel. And you are probably going to have a knowledge vacume and bottlenneck within the company because now only that dev knows how to build funnels
