Reviewed by Switchpoint Editors ·
Contender A
Drip
Ecommerce CRM and email automation that targets the same buyer as Klaviyo.
- Mid-market ecommerce teams that want Klaviyo-style flows with simpler pricing.
- From $39/mo for 2,500 contacts; scales with contact count. 14-day free trial.
Best for
Pricing
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
Omnisend
Klaviyo's closest ecommerce rival with email, SMS, and push in one bill.
- Shopify and WooCommerce stores under ~50k contacts that want pre-built ecommerce flows without Klaviyo's price curve.
- Free up to 250 contacts / 500 emails. Standard from $16/mo, Pro (unlimited email + SMS credits) from $59/mo.
Best for
Pricing
Pros
- Pre-built abandoned cart, browse abandon, and post-purchase flows out of the box
- Bundled SMS and web push in the same plan — no separate add-on
- Pricing is consistently 20–40% under Klaviyo at the same contact count
Trade-offs
- Segmentation is less granular than Klaviyo's predictive analytics
- Reporting is simpler — fine for SMB, thin for data teams
