Why ecommerce brands look beyond ActiveCampaign
Expensive for what you use
Plans get expensive quickly. Most ecommerce stores use a fraction of ActiveCampaign's CRM and sales features but pay for all of them.
Not ecommerce-native
ActiveCampaign works for any business. That means no deep catalog integration, no product recommendations, and no ecommerce-specific flows out of the box.
You still run it yourself
Powerful automation, but someone on your team needs to build flows, write emails, manage segments, and optimize. That takes time most ecommerce teams don't have.

What changes when you switch from ActiveCampaign
Retention gets its own team
When one tool serves sales and marketing, store retention competes with pipeline work for attention. With Jellyreach, a team works only on your repeat revenue.
Store events come first
Flows trigger on orders, products, and browsing in your WooCommerce store instead of on contacts and deal stages.
What you give up
A sales CRM with deal pipelines. If your sales team relies on it, keep ActiveCampaign for that and let us run retention.
How switching works
Switching from ActiveCampaign, week by week.
Most stores go from audit to live flows in 2-4 weeks. Keep ActiveCampaign sending until the new flows are live, so nothing goes quiet during the move.

Book a Free Retention AuditHow is Jellyreach different from ActiveCampaign?
ActiveCampaign is a general-purpose automation tool you run yourself. Jellyreach is a managed ecommerce retention service - we set up and run lifecycle flows, product recommendations, and campaigns. You can also use the platform self-service.
Is Jellyreach more affordable?
Yes. Self-service starts at $29/mo with bring-your-own delivery providers. Managed service includes the platform. You don't pay for CRM and sales features you won't use.
Does Jellyreach support SMS?
Yes. Email and SMS run from the same platform, same segments, same flows. ActiveCampaign charges extra for SMS - with Jellyreach it's included on every plan.
Can we keep ActiveCampaign for our sales team?
Yes. If sales runs on ActiveCampaign's CRM, it can stay there. We take over retention for your store customers: lifecycle flows, campaigns, and product recommendations.
What happens to our ActiveCampaign automations?
The audit shows which automations earn their place. We rebuild the ecommerce ones on your WooCommerce data, with product blocks built from your catalog, and leave sales automations with your sales team.
