Carrot vs. GoHighLevel
Don’t waste time on overly complicated software that isn’t built for real estate. Get the features you actually need to succeed as a real estate professional with Carrot web and CarrotCRM.

The major difference between Carrot and HighLevel (it’s a big deal)
There is one fundamental difference between Carrot and HighLevel (often called GoHighLevel): Carrot is built for real estate professionals, HighLevel is built for marketing agencies.
HighLevel is a robust marketing platform with a lot of features that real estate professionals don’t need and likely won’t use. It’s designed for complex marketing agencies that set up and manage websites and marketing for many clients across industries. Single businesses can use it, but that’s not what it’s built for.
Carrot provides best-in-class lead generation websites and CRM specifically for real estate investors and agents. Our solutions are designed to be easy to use and effective for novice investors and large real estate teams, with the industry-specific features you actually need.
GoHighLevel and Carrot are like Android and iPhone. If you want your acquisition managers to stay in their lane and do what they have to do, CarrotCRM is the best one. The reality is that CarrotCRM is set up so nothing can fall through the cracks. I feel like there’s absolutely zero way for anything to fall because of all the tasks and pipelines, etc. that CarrotCRM has.

Carrot Best-in-Class vs. GoHighLevel All-In-One
HighLevel promotes itself as an all-in-one solution. The problem with that is you end up paying for or distracted by features you don’t actually need. Carrot builds best-in-class solutions that can be used alone or integrated based on your need. This approach lets you build the tech stack that you want using your favorite solutions.
Carrot CEO Trevor Mauch explains why Carrot isn’t an all-in-one (and why that’s a good thing)
