Q: vs CRM?
Hi guys. I'm struggling with this because I'm trying to assess the value of this tool versus a CRM like Hubspot, ActiveCampaign, GoHighLevel, CRMOne, etc. Why would someone want to use encharge for their email delivery AND integrate with another CRM instead of just using Encharge exclusively? Especially for those who need phone capability (sms, dialiers, etc) for a sales based email list.

Great question—and one we get a lot from folks comparing Encharge to CRM-heavy platforms like GoHighLevel or HubSpot.
Here’s the thing: Encharge is not a CRM. It’s a powerful marketing automation platform. Think of us as the engine that drives email engagement, onboarding flows, and behavior-based automations—but not the full “sales pipeline” suite with native dialers, call tracking, SMS inboxes, etc.
That said... if your business is more sales-driven (outreach calls, SMS follow-ups, pipeline management), then tools like GoHighLevel or ActiveCampaign may be better suited as your "hub."
But here’s where Encharge really shines:
Here’s what we do exceptionally well:
• Advanced visual automations (flows that feel like building blocks 🧱)
• Seamless behavior-based campaigns (e.g. “Opened X email + clicked Y link → send follow-up”)
• Native integrations with dozens of tools (Calendly, Stripe, Intercom, etc.)
• Unlimited emails + unlimited team members
• Works great with a CRM—send personalized emails based on CRM updates, user behavior, billing events, and more
We often see people pair Encharge with a CRM—letting their CRM handle contacts, deals, and calls, while Encharge runs the marketing engine (automations, campaigns, onboarding, re-engagement, lead nurturing, etc.).
If you're mainly using email for warm-up sequences, lifecycle campaigns, webinars, product onboarding, or segmenting based on behavior—Encharge is going to feel like a dream.
But if you need native calling, SMS inboxes, or deal boards? That’s where a full CRM comes in.
