Our verdict
Settle this duel with one question: where does your revenue come from? If you sell through an online store, Klaviyo is built for you: every flow and segment revolves around order behavior. If you sell services or B2B with a sales pipeline, ActiveCampaign wins with its CRM, lead scoring, and deal stages. Both are champions on their own turf; pick the turf that is yours.
“The most powerful automation we tested, with behavior-driven campaigns and a built-in CRM. Overkill for a simple newsletter, but the professional standard for a growing business.”Editorial team, on ActiveCampaign
“For online stores, nothing else comes close: the segmentation on purchase behavior and the revenue reporting are in a league of their own. Outside e-commerce, you are paying for power you will not use.”Editorial team, on Klaviyo
