Trove vs ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign sends great emails. Trove runs the whole deal.

ActiveCampaign is an email marketing automation tool first. Pipelines, sales engagement and texting are paid add-ons, prices rise with your contact count, and contracts and invoicing are separate (payments only through Stripe or PayPal integrations).

Why dealers choose Trove over ActiveCampaign

1

Unlimited users included

ActiveCampaign includes 3 users on Pro and charges for each extra one. Every Trove CRM plan includes unlimited users.

2

Built for selling, not just emailing

In Trove, pipelines, tasks, texting, email sync, documents and payments live on the deal. ActiveCampaign charges extra for pipelines and has no contracts or invoicing.

3

No penalty for growing your list

ActiveCampaign's price goes up as you add contacts. Trove's doesn't, so you can keep every past buyer and referral in your CRM.

4

Your website and catalog included

ActiveCampaign offers landing pages. Trove gives you a full home-shopping site with your factories' catalog, design studio and property mapping.

To be fair, ActiveCampaign is good at:
  • Excellent email automation and segmentation
  • Good deliverability and campaign reporting
  • Reasonable entry price for small lists
