ClickFunnels is primarily a sales funnel and marketing automation platform, not an online publishing platform like Medium. While it offers features like a blog builder and a drag-and-drop editor (which can be considered a rich text editor for page building), its core purpose is lead generation, sales, and course delivery, not content monetization through a membership model based on reading time or a recommendation engine for articles. It does allow for user profiles and the creation of content, but it lacks the specific features that define Medium, such as a distribution and recommendation engine for articles, membership monetization based on reading time, reader engagement metrics for articles (beyond general analytics), and community feedback tools specifically for published stories.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.
Check it out at our site.
Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
