LOOKING FOR A CLIENTJOY ALTERNATIVE?
Clientjoy vs. ClientManager
Fluff is nice on kittens. Not client management software. ClientManager removes the unnecessary extras to help you run your business without the frustrations.
Trying To Choose Between Clientjoy And ClientManager?
Do you feel like spending 3 hours comparing features and pricing?
We didn’t think so.
So, here's the TL;DR:
If you're a solopreneur or agency looking for a user-friendly tool to streamline your sales and CRM, definitely check out Clientjoy.
But, if you’re looking for a more versatile all-in-one tool that combines sales, CRM and project management tools at a more affordable price point, then ClientManager might just be calling your name.
We'll go into a little more detail below.
Of course, you could always just try both options for free and see which your prefer.
It doesn’t matter whether you’re a solopreneur or a business owner managing a bigger team, we’re betting you’re truly only looking for ONE thing in a CRM:
A way to simplify your life.
…So you don’t have to curl up in a fetal position when you see yet another meeting added to your calendar or the zillionth ‘mention’ in your inbox.
No one is looking for MORE COMPLEXITY.
We have enough to go around.
So why is it that most tools out there feel like they ADD rather than remove the complications?
They’re either too advanced, too confusing, or too expensive…
Or you need seven different tools to manage everything you need to do.
Then there’s the ones that actively try to take over your laptop and force you to work the way they want you to.

The Difference Between ClientManager & ClientJoy
Look, we’re not here to nitpick all the nitty gritty differences between ClientManager and Clientjoy.
(We’re too busy making ClientManager as awesome as possible).
The truth is, they share a lot of similarities.
Both offer a comprehensive set of CRM tools for solopreneurs and agencies on a one-stop platform that’s intuitive and easy to navigate.
Key features on both platforms include:
-
Simple and effective leads/sales pipeline
-
Customizable proposals, contracts, invoices and email templates
-
eSignature collection
-
Client dashboard
-
Client portals
-
Scheduling & calendar integration
-
Payment integrations and automated invoicing
-
Email integration and automations
-
White labelling
That said, here are a few key differentiators that may matter to you:
1
Sales Focus vs. Well-Rounded CRM & Project Management
Both Clientjoy and ClientManager offer a robust toolset to help freelancers and agencies streamline their sales process.
From tracking your leads, to customized client portals, to simplified invoicing, both platforms have you covered to convert more prospects into happy, paying clients.
But if you’re looking for one-stop solution where you also have the tools to easily manage projects and tasks, collaborate with your team, and keep track of hours and profitability, ClientManager builds in the essential project management tools you need to cover your backend as well as your client-facing operations.

Pricing
Clientjoy currently offers two pricing plans:
$49/user/month for the Starter plan for solopreneurs (with limited features).
Or $99/user/month for the Premium plan for agencies. The first $99 includes 3 users, then you’ll get 50% off on each additional user. (We think. It’s not exactly 100% clear on their pricing page). Get 10% off if you pay annually.
ClientManager’s Solo plan is just $12/month, and gives you full feature access with up to 10 clients + 10 collaborators.
(Keep in mind that if you want access to features like client portals and white labelling on Clientjoy, you’ll be paying a minimum of $89/month on the annual plan.)
ClientManager’s Team plan offers a lot more feature-packed value at only $29/month for up to 10 team members + 100 collaborators, with up to 100 clients. (Plus you can get a full 4 months free with our annual plans).
Bottom line:
Both ClientManager and Clientjoy offer a simple but powerful solution for managing your clients and sales.
But ClientManager brings a little more to the table with its full toolbox of combined CRM and project management tools, all at a very competitive price for both solopreneurs and teams.
At the end of the day, choose the tool that aligns better with your needs and what you value most.

ClientManager replaced several online tools, solving many of my problems."

How ClientManager Helps You Get More Done With Less
ClientManager is purposefully designed to help you block out the noise and focus on what matters.
Here are few ways we’re committed to cutting the clutter:
We won't make you watch a 3-hour tutorial or book a consultant to get set up. (We’re big on 60-second walkthroughs).
We won't hold your data hostage in a million submenus.
We don’t color code to death to disguise our lack of intuitive design. Our dashboards keep things clear and actionable at a glance.
We won’t annoy you with our ‘whimsical banter.’ We know you’ve got work to do. (And you don’t need a fluffer to get it done).
We don’t expect you to shape-shift to fit with our system. It’s there to work for you.
We don’t hide our human support team behind a higher paywall (they’d get too lonely).
**Warning: Using ClientManager may result in increased free time. Use responsibly.
HOW IT WORKS

He Said, She Said…
We’ve got some opinions about why users love ClientManager and what makes them choose it over other platforms like Clientjoy, Bonsai and Honeybook.
But we’d rather let them do the talking.

But ClientManager makes all of it SO easy with its clean interface and user-friendly platform."

Still After that List of Features?
(We get it. Lists are comforting. Like kitten fluff.)
Here at ClientManager, we don’t throttle features based on budget or how many team members you’re planning to cut out of the will.
We don’t charge per seat, and you can count our pricing plans on one hand (even if you’ve lost 2 fingers). Plus, we’ll never sneak in any hidden fees or try to lure you into ‘premium’ offers.
Whichever plan you choose, you get access to all the features you and your team need, including:
