I first wrote this post way back in 2016 and Convertri continues to go from strength to strength! 🙂

Here’s why I consider Convertri to be much better (and cheaper!) than ClickFunnels…

If you’ve ever used a page builder to create a squeeze page, landing page, any type of funnel in your business, then you’ll know it can sometimes be a pretty frustrating experience trying to make the software do what you want it to do…

Clickfunnels, I’m looking at you!

Well, a while back, a friend brought Convertri to my attention (thanks David!).

Since I had been happy with ClickFunnels, I wasn’t in the market for a new funnel builder, but by the time David had finished telling me about it, I knew I had to give Convertri a try.

Anyway, off I went, bought it and started playing with it straight away.

I LOVE tinkering with stuff like this, so I was one happy geek monkey!

But you don’t need to be tech-savvy or geeky to use Convertri – as with all page builders there’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you get used to it, it’s really simple to use.

I didn’t even watch the tutorial videos (which are plentiful) and I still figured it all out in half an hour or so.

Since I first started using Convertri, it’s come on in leaps and bounds with new features and bug fixes weekly

So much so that I am now updating this post for the second time in 2019.

There is no doubt in my mind that Convertri is an excellent Clickfunnels alternative!

In fact I much prefer it over Clickfunnels and would never go back.

Check out my Convertri 2019 video review here:

Convertri vs Clickfunnels – what makes Convertri the best funnel builder?

First of all, The ‘Anything, anywhere‘ page builder is brilliant! It really is.

I can’t tell you the number of times that I became extremely frustrated with ClickFunnels when I simply wanted to move my Submit button just a little bit, but couldn’t figure out which element’s margin or padding I needed to change to make it happen.

It often took me a few frustrating minutes to do something that takes seconds with Convertri. Just drag and drop and you’re done!

Totally frustration free! Yay!

Recreate all your ClickFunnels pages in Convertri at the click of a button…

Although it was always fairly simple to recreate any existing page in Convertri, no matter whether it was originally built with Clickfunnels, some other page builder, WordPress or just plain HTML, the Convertri guys have now excelled themselves…

Want to recreate your own pages in Convertri?

Just direct the Page Importer to the page you want to recreate in Convertri, and hit ‘Go’.

You’ll get an exact copy ready built for you

You’ll be able to recreate entire funnels for yourself or clients in a matter of minutes!

Remember, this works for pretty much ANY page, no matter how it was created!

Here’s a quick demo of how easy it is:

And this how to quickly create an opt-in page in Convertri:

Here are a few features of the editor that I really love:

#1 Shift-drag:

Select any page element with the mouse, hold down the Shift Key and you can drag that element and anything below it anywhere you want. It actually moves the whole lot!

This means that you can easily create a new section between existing sections without messing up your entire page and without being so frustrating that you want to throw your laptop out of the window.

Watch the video below to see how it works:

#2 Cloning:

You can clone* an element, a layer, a page or even an entire funnel.

Here’s how simple it is with elements:

1. Select the element you want to clone.
2. Click the Clone Element button in the Quick Actions toolbar.
3. The duplicate element appears, and you can position, edit and resize it.

This will save you so much time!

*Darth Vader would love it!

Check out a demo below (there are videos available showing how to clone the other stuff too):

#3 Undo button:

It might seem simple, but I really missed this in ClickFunnels (a glaring omission IMHO) I occasionally deleted an entire block in ClickFunnels when I just meant to delete an element (it’s way too easy to make this mistake!).

If I haven’t saved the page recently, sometimes the only way to fix this is to quit, (losing ALL your other changes too!) and start again.

And even if you haven’t lost much, having to reload a previous save is a daft way to have to go about undoing a change!

So I’m ecstatic that Convertri includes this innocuous, yet super useful button!

Recreating ClickFunnels pages in Convertri is a doddle, even when done manually

When it comes to Convertri vs Clickfunnels, there’s no need to worry about having to recreate your pages and funnels…

Back when Convertri first came out I was pleasantly surprised by how quick and easy it was to recreate a funnel.

I did it with one of my own squeeze pages in under an hour and that was when I was learning the Convertri interface and didn’t know about Shift-drag or Cloning (doh!).

I suspect you could do it in half an hour or less with a bit of practice.

You can also recreate pages built by pretty much any other page builder too!

The job is made much much easier with Convertri’s Import Page feature, but you can still do it manually if you have the Convertri Standard account…

But in my opinion Pro is worth the extra $5 / month for the Page Importer, extra templates and more.

So, Convertri vs Clickfunnels – how do the pages compare?

Well, you be the judge – It’s hard to tell the difference between the two.

Don’t forget to come back after you take a look. I’ll wait…

• Click here to see the original (I no longer have a ClickFunnels account, but you can just about still see the page until Clickfunnel’s popup)
• Click here to see the same site on Convertri

Check out the video I made when Convertri first came out for quick demo and a comparison between the two pages:

Convertri Pages Load Lightning Fast – Even The Flash Would Approve!

The main benefit of Convertri is its lightning fast speed and I have to say that it’s certainly performed very well in my tests.

I’m certainly not saying that ClickFunnels is slow, but page loading speeds are critical to improve your conversions…

Not only does page speed increase search engine rankings, but according to Kissmetrics, 40% of people will abandon your website if it takes longer than 3 seconds to load. Eek!

With ClickFunnels I noticed that I lost a significant proportion of visitors between the link click (as recorded by ClickMagick) and the visitor actually landing on my page.

Just think how many leads and how much money you’re leaving on the table if you’re losing 40 out of every 100 visitors to your page!

Check out this comparison between a ClickFunnels site and the identical page that I recreated in Convertri.

You can see that the page size is much smaller in Convertri (on the left) and the Convertri page also has much better speed grades and loads nearly twice as fast as the Clickfunnels version:

Google’s page speed insights for mobile gave impressive results for Convertri but pretty dire for Clickfunnels:

Convertri totally crushes it on mobile! And with more and more people using mobile these days, it pays to be fast!

Convertri is built on the same Content Delivery Network that powers Twitter & Shopify, so you can see why the pages load so fast!

It should also handle all the traffic you can throw at it with ease! No more over-heated servers going down right in the middle of your product launch! Yay! 

Here are just a few of Convertri’s features:

As I said earlier, Convertri has been around since 2016, and it just gets better every week!

This makes Convertri the most up-to-date funnel builder available, and me a happy bunny

But if you use video in your marketing or plan to, this is where you’re going to get really excited!

This ‘video update’ has made Convertri the “King of Page and Funnel Builders” for years to come.

And now the King of Video too!

Their new ‘Presto Player’ is so lightweight that it has zero impact on your page speed scores. Say what?

You heard me – zero impact on page speed scores.

Now that’s impressive!

In fact, I’m told that it’s so fast it can help BOOST ENGAGEMENT by as much as 40% or more.

When you consider that just one video can add 2 seconds to your page speed, you could be losing  as much as 52% of your traffic!

And now Convertri lets you create fantastic free-form video-heavy pages that perform almost ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT FASTER than the closest competitor!

So in the Convertri vs Clickfunnels comparison, is there anything I don’t like?

Well, to be honest, there’s not much that has bugged me at all. Any minor bugs are fixed weekly by the Convertri creators Andy Fletcher and Neil Murton.

But here are a couple of points to bear in mind:

Mobile Design

Although Convertri pages are mobile responsive, you sometimes need to tweak the mobile version a bit to get the best results.

But the Improvements that have been made over time mean that you can usually create a very passable mobile version at the click of a button.

Don’t like  auto-generated mobile page?

Convertri gives you full control to edit it yourself to get it looking just right.

And with such a great mobile speed improvement, I’m willing to put up with the small inconvenience of having to tweak my mobile pages.

Popup Creation

If I’m being picky, then I’d say that the way you create pop-ups is a little bit fiddly.

However, there is a great help video to show you how to do this (there are many help videos).

And the clever ‘layers’ system that Convertri uses does mean that you have much more control over when your popups appear.

Once you’ve created one popup you can easily clone it to use on another page, where it can be edited.

Convertri vs Clickfunnels Conclusion

I’ve been using Convertri for 3 years now and I still love it! It’s still the first Page Builder that I recommend.

I love the ease of use, I love the fully flexible page builder, I love ability to recreate any page with the click of the button, as well as the clever editor tricks such as Alt-drag cloning and Shift-drag to move large sections around.

And of course, I love the page load speed!

No more lost leads!

In the Convertri vs Clickfunnels battle, Convertri is probably never going to leave ClickFunnels dead in the water, but if you’re looking for a cheaper option with a drag anything anywhere interface, that will improve your conversions due to its lightning speed, then I’d highly recommend checking out Convertri.

After experiencing the ease with which I can setup a funnel in Convertri, I feel that Convertri is the best Clickfunnels alternative and I’m never going back to building marketing pages in ClickFunnels.
