We imported a trade show list of about four thousand contacts and stepped up a contact tier without any confirmation prompt. The bill went up immediately and the mechanic is documented rather than in front of you when you do the thing that triggers it. Clean the list first.

We were paying for a CRM, an email tool, a scheduler, a landing page builder and an invoicing product. Keap does all five. It is expensive and it is less expensive than what it replaced, and there is one system holding the customer rather than five that disagreed.

Two hundred and forty nine a month is a lot for a small business
Support is friendly and can only help with the product, not with what you built in it. When my campaign logic misfired the answer was that my configuration was mine to debug. Technically fair and not much use at nine at night before a launch.

Tagging is the concept the whole product rests on. Once that clicked, everything got easier, and before it clicked nothing made sense. If you buy this, learn tags first and the rest follows.

I built a campaign in 2022 that tags an enquiry, sends a five email sequence, books a consultation, invoices after the job and asks for a review a week later. It has run ever since without me touching it. That flow is worth more than the subscription and it is why I tolerate everything else.

Onboarding is mandatory and priced
Onboarding is compulsory and costs around five hundred dollars, so month one lands near eight hundred. It was useful and I would have liked it presented as part of the price rather than discovered at checkout.

Powerful, and you must commit someone to it
The nickname it picked up in the Infusionsoft years was fair. It is dense, the terminology is its own, and the first fortnight is genuinely disorienting. It does become second nature and the ramp is real.

Two hundred and forty nine a month is a lot for a small business
For a four person business this is the largest software line we have by a distance. It does a lot and every renewal I sit and ask whether we would rebuild the same thing across three cheaper tools. So far the answer is no and it gets closer each year.

The automation follows the money too
Because invoicing and payments are in the same system, automation can trigger on whether someone actually paid rather than just whether they clicked. Chasing an unpaid invoice automatically, with escalating messages, is not something a marketing tool can do.

Thank you for the honest feedback. Contact tier changes should never be a surprise and we have shared this with the team that owns that experience. Our support team can help you review your contact settings.

For what it costs, the reporting is poor. Attribution is hard to get at, and answering which campaign produced revenue took exporting to a spreadsheet. That is a strange gap in a product built around marketing automation.
