ClickFunnelsvsPodia

ClickFunnels is the funnel builder: pages, upsells, email, and courses built for launches. Podia sells courses, downloads, coaching, and webinars from one simple site with email.

How ClickFunnels and Podia compare

ClickFunnels wrote the playbook on the sales funnel, and the 2.0 platform still does that job better than most: unlimited funnels on every plan, one-click upsells and order bumps, Smart Checkout, A/B tests, countdown timers, and templates built by people who sell for a living. Around the funnel it has grown a site and blog, courses, a store, email, automations, a CRM with pipelines, and MessageHub for conversations.

Podia is the all-in-one that stays friendly. Courses with drip and quizzes, digital downloads delivered the second someone pays, coaching products, events, a community with paid plans, a website with a real blog, and Podia Email with broadcasts and campaigns, all under one login and one bill. Sales tax across 230 jurisdictions, 20 plus currencies, coupons, bundles, and payment plans come standard, and Shaker and Earthquaker drop the transaction fee to zero. For a creator selling digital products, Podia removes a lot of glue.
