Three big reasons to choose Close over HighLevel

Repeat

Powerful sales automations to nurture every lead

Workflow automation tools are a non-negotiable in your CRM. Close's Power Dialer, Predictive Dialer, AI call transcription, and multi-channel workflows help you efficiently and smoothly nurture leads from start to finish.

HighLevel lacks the automated dialer and workflow automation, meaning your team moves (and sells) slower.

Faster, more reliable platform

The #1 piece of feedback we hear from customers who have made the switch from HighLevel to Close: Our CRM is incredibly fast and simple compared to HighLevel.

Many businesses like marketing agencies and coaching companies know that speed is essential to qualifying leads. With Close's sales-focused interface, sales teams can take care of all their tasks quickly in a tool they love.

Built-in communication tools

Your CRM should have advanced business phone capabilities built right in––no third-party tools needed. Close has native calling, SMS, and email, plus powerful features like contextual call routing, automatic call transcriptions, and call coaching.

Close's built-in communication tools give sales teams everything they need to close deals, while HighLevel requires a separate phone system and third-party integrations to match our functionality.

HighLevel

HighLevel lacks a complete built-in calling solution. You'll need to buy and manage a separate calling system and integrate the two. Fingers crossed your reps like working in multiple tools at the same time. 🤞

Powerful workflow automation

Close's workflows automate your follow-ups to keep your leads engaged and your pipeline flowing. Never let another lead slip through the cracks from a missed follow-up.

HighLevel
