Questions, answered
Frequently asked about Ortto
The short version is on the surface. Open any question to go deeper.
Ortto is a unified customer data, marketing automation and analytics platform designed to help businesses build personalized, multi-channel customer journeys. It combines a customer data platform (CDP), visual journey builder, email and SMS marketing, web and mobile push, live chat, and reporting in a single, AI-assisted solution so marketers can orchestrate campaigns and understand revenue impact without relying heavily on engineers.
Ortto uses tiered, contact-based pricing. The Starter plan begins at around $199 per month (approximately $169 per month when billed annually) for 5,000 contacts, while Professional and Business plans start at $509 and $849 per month (annual billing) for 10,000 contacts. Enterprise plans are custom-priced based on scale and services. All new customers can try Ortto free for 14 days with up to 10,000 contacts and a limited number of email sends.
Key features of Ortto include a visual journey builder for complex automations; unified customer profiles via its built-in CDP; advanced segmentation and lead scoring; multi-channel messaging across email, SMS, in-app and web or mobile push; forms, popups and surveys; AI-assisted content suggestions and send-time optimization; reporting, dashboards and cohort analysis; and deep integrations with tools like Salesforce, Shopify, Stripe, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zendesk and more. Higher tiers also add Talk live chat, a shared inbox and a knowledge base.
Ortto's main competitors in marketing automation and customer data-driven journeys include HubSpot Marketing Hub, ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo, Customer.io, and Mailchimp, as well as more enterprise-focused tools like Braze or Adobe Marketo Engage for larger organizations with complex requirements.
Ortto is well-suited to small and midsize businesses that are serious about lifecycle marketing and want automation that can scale with them. Lean marketing teams can quickly launch email and SMS journeys using templates and the visual builder, then layer on more advanced segmentation and reporting over time. Very small businesses that only need occasional newsletter sends may find Ortto more powerful than they require, but growing startups and SMBs with digital funnels typically benefit from its unified data model and automation capabilities.
