Reviewed by Switchpoint Editors ·

Contender A

Drip

Ecommerce CRM and email automation that targets the same buyer as Klaviyo.

Best for

Mid-market ecommerce teams that want Klaviyo-style flows with simpler pricing.

Pricing

From $39/mo for 2,500 contacts; scales with contact count. 14-day free trial.

Pros

  • Visual workflow builder rivals Klaviyo's
  • Flat contact-based pricing without Klaviyo's add-on stack
  • Strong Shopify and WooCommerce data sync

Trade-offs

  • Pricing climbs quickly past 25k contacts — re-evaluate at scale
  • SMS requires a third-party integration; not bundled

Contender B

GetResponse

Best for

Ecommerce and course sellers who want abandoned-cart, webinars, and email in one bill.

Pricing

Free up to 500 contacts. Email Marketing from $19/mo. Ecommerce Marketing $119/mo.

Pros
