Carrot vs. GoHighLevel
Ditch the complex funnels. Get an agency software that’s easier, faster, and a fraction of the work.
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)

I’ve used a bunch of CRMs, I’ve used Salesforce, I’ve used HighLevel and they can get complex. I like the simplicity of CarrotCRM. A lead comes in, you see it, it’s at the top, you see the status, you can tag it, you can do whatever you want. The simplicity of the systems actually helps us a lot and enables us to just do what we need to do with a lead. That’s the best part. What I love about CarrotCRM is it’s simplicity when compared to other CRMs.

I absolutely love Carrot. It’s very user friendly. I love the amount of information Carrot provides. They’re always up-to-date and ahead in sharing information in relation to wholesaling real estate, what’s going on in the marketplace, trying to be ahead of the game. I appreciate all of those things that you don’t necessarily get with other providers or other sites that are not tailored specifically for investors. I appreciate the niche, I think it’s really valuable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does CarrotCRM come with a website?
Because Carrot isn’t an “all-in-one” software, you can choose which products you want. You can use CarrotCRM as a standalone CRM integrated with your existing website, or you can get both a Carrot lead generation website and CRM. The choice is yours!
Is Carrot as difficult to set up as GoHighLevel? Do I need expert help?
No! While it’s not uncommon for HighLevel users to pay contractors hundreds or even thousands of dollars to set up their CRM, CarrotCRM is ready to use from day one. Plus, all paid CarrotCRM subscriptions come with onboarding, support, and integration help! When you choose Carrot, you don’t need to pay a contractor to customize your CRM.
Carrot websites are also easy to setup. Simply choose your template, then use our website block patterns and other features to customize its look and content.
