WhatConverts

WhatConverts (USA)

3,1 Good
Outside EU Web analytics From approx 290 SEK/month

American top-class lead tracking: calls, forms and chat are tied to the exact ad that generated the customer. For Swedish companies, though, there are three clear downsides: all data is stored and processed in the USA, prices are in USD and usage fees are added on top of the subscription.

  • Unusually broad lead attribution with calls, forms, chat and e-commerce in the same view
  • Top ratings from users globally (4.9 out of 5 on both G2 and Capterra); the product itself is excellent
  • All data is stored and processed in the USA (AWS) under US law, with no stated transfer mechanism in the privacy policy; a red flag in our Schrems III traffic light

Best for: Agencies and ad-driven companies that want to see exactly which campaigns generate calls and leads, and that can handle US data storage.
