How ClickFunnels and Squarespace 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.

Squarespace makes sites that look finished. Award-winning templates, a fluid editor, commerce, scheduling through Acuity, email campaigns, and member areas mean a designer or small business can build almost anything in one account. It is polished, dependable, and deservedly popular with people who care how things look.
