Credit where it is due

Hyros did server-side tracking and multi-touch attribution properly years before the rest of the market and holds a SOC 2 Type 2 report. For an info product or e-commerce brand spending seven figures it remains a serious platform. The table is about the centre of gravity: LeadJourney starts from the form, the call and the CRM deal.

Why the axis matters more than the entry price

A lead gen business closes far more revenue than it spends on ads. Priced by tracked revenue, a €20,000 budget that closes €150,000 a month sits in Hyros's $999 tier; priced by spend, the same business stays on LeadJourney's €499 plan.

Why teams switch

Why marketing teams move from Hyros to LeadJourney

Three arguments come up in almost every migration call. Each one is a set of concrete capabilities, not a slogan.

Built around the lead, with the store beside it

  • Forms, calls and CRM stages as conversions

    Every conversion type a lead gen business has, tracked out of the box, with the CRM stage as the signal that matters rather than a checkout event.

  • CRM revenue attribution

    Closed revenue from your CRM matched to the campaign, ad and keyword that created it, so return on ad spend is measured on deals, not on lead counts.

  • Offline conversion tracking

    Calls, meetings and signed contracts connected back to the exact ad that generated them, and sent to the ad platforms as the conversion they should optimise on.

  • Lead quality by channel

    See which channels bring leads that qualify and close, not just the ones that fill the form.

  • Call tracking as an add-on

    Static numbers per campaign or dynamic number insertion per visitor, on every plan, billed per number plus usage, and CallRail or Podium if you already run one. Every call lands on the click that made the phone ring.

Built for European teams

  • Frankfurt EU hosting

    Frankfurt, Germany, with full EU data residency. GDPR compliant by design, with no transfer mechanism to document.

  • GDPR-native architecture

    First-party tracking on your own domain, hashed identifiers and no third-party cookies, with an Art. 28 DPA on request. Compliant by default, not by configuration.

  • DACH-first support

    German team, German support and German invoicing, built for DACH performance teams.

  • German documentation

    DSGVO and GDPR documentation in German, so compliance reviews run without translation friction.

  • Pricing in euros

    Predictable pricing in euros, signed contracts and transparent SLAs, ready for European procurement.

Faster to value, and further ahead

  • 21 minute setup

    From signup to live tracking in under 21 minutes, self-serve, not a demo call before you can see the product.

  • Priced by spend, not by what you close

    Public tiers from €129 per month, set by your marketing spend, so the price does not climb when your sales team closes more revenue.

  • Ask Atlas, the AI marketing analyst

    Atlas reads your campaign, lead and CRM data and writes plain-language reports daily or weekly, to email, Slack or WhatsApp.

  • AI search engine tracking

    ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek and Grok tracked as distinct sources, not bucketed into direct or organic.

  • MCP connection and custom reports

    Ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor about your own data over MCP, and build any report from raw data without SQL.

Switching

From Hyros to LeadJourney in 21 minutes

Nothing to export by hand. Add the script next to the Hyros one, connect the accounts, map the stages, and run both for a week or two until the numbers agree.

  1. 1About 5 minutes

    Add the LeadJourney script

    Paste one snippet into your site or your GTM container, alongside the Hyros script. It starts recording sessions, click IDs and form fills immediately, and nothing about your current tracking changes.

  2. 2About 10 minutes

    Connect your ad accounts and CRM

    Sign in to Meta, Google, LinkedIn and Microsoft Ads over OAuth, then connect the CRM where your deals live. Historic campaign data and spend are imported for you.

  3. 3About 6 minutes

    Map your CRM stages to conversions

    Choose which stages count as a qualified lead and which count as revenue. From then on every stage change flows back to the ad platforms, and you can switch Hyros off once both tools agree.

Original reviews

What our customers wrote, word for word

4.9 out of 5 across 11 public reviews. Quoted as they were left, shortened only by dropping whole sentences.

  • 5 out of 5 starsGoogle

    Before LeadJourney, we had no reliable tracking concept for our five-figure ad spend. We were manually building spreadsheet and CRM reports, inaccurate and time-consuming. Within two days, everything was set up. For the first time, I know exactly what I pay per lead and which campaigns actually bring in the best-qualified prospects.

    Florian BuckCEO, Klickkraft GmbH
  • With LeadJourney we are able to track all our leads and connect them with sales and attribution data to make better decisions. In the first month of using it we scaled from 0 to 100k revenue from paid ads only.

    LeadJourney finally fixed my Marketing Analytics. It goes way beyond basic Ad Tracking Software. The Customer Journey Report saves hours of digging, and capturing everything from Offline Conversions to AI Search Tracking makes it the Best B2B Attribution Platform available.

    Connected LeadJourney for 2 clients, setup took literally 20 minutes each. The data became more accurate, the reports actually make sense. Now clients look at the dashboard and the 'why don't the numbers match?' questions are gone.

    With LeadJourney, we have finally found a tool that provides us with the data we need to scale our performance marketing campaigns. The most important KPI is no longer lead price but cost per qualified lead.

    The ability to track both online and offline conversions in one unified dashboard has given us insights we never had before. Our ROI has improved dramatically since we started integrating LeadJourney with our CRM. We're finally able to see the full customer journey, and it's been a game changer for our strategy.

FAQ

Hyros vs LeadJourney, your questions answered

The questions teams ask before switching, answered the way we answer them on calls.

What is the actual difference between Hyros and LeadJourney?

Both track server-side and both attribute across several touches, so the difference is not whether the tracking works. Hyros is built around info products and high-ticket e-commerce, where the conversion is a checkout, and goes deep on that store: product-level analytics, cohorts, lifetime value. LeadJourney is the all-in-one attribution platform: lead generation first, B2B and B2C, with forms, calls, bookings, CRM stages and closed revenue as conversions, e-commerce through the Shopify integration or a manually connected shop, AI search engines as distinct sources and Atlas, the AI marketing analyst, on top. Beyond the model, LeadJourney hosts in Frankfurt and prices by spend rather than by tracked revenue.

Is Hyros a bad choice for lead generation?

No. Hyros tracks lead gen funnels, integrates with the big CRMs and plenty of agencies run it. The question is what the platform is built around. If your business sells through a sales team and your revenue lives in a CRM, a platform whose data model starts from CRM stages and closed deals gives you the reports you actually need without workarounds. If you sell courses or products at checkout with a seven figure budget and need product-level analytics and cohorts, Hyros remains a serious option; a store that needs ROAS and customer origin gets those from LeadJourney through Shopify.

How does the pricing compare?

Both publish their prices, on different axes. Hyros prices by tracked monthly revenue: $69 a month up to $5,000, $129 up to $10,000, $230 up to $20,000, then $353, $583, $999 and $1,499 at $750,000, with a custom quote from $1 million and a demo call before you can buy; monthly billing is reported about 30% above those figures. LeadJourney prices by marketing spend: €129 a month up to €5,000 of spend, €249 up to €15,000, €499 up to €50,000, €799 up to €100,000 and from €999 above that, monthly or yearly, after a 14-day free trial. For a lead generation business the axis matters more than the entry price: revenue closed through a sales team is usually several times the ad spend, so a tracked-revenue price climbs faster than a spend-based one.

We are an EU company. Does it matter where Hyros hosts?

For a procurement or data protection review it does. Hyros runs on AWS without a published region and covers EU transfers through the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and a DPA, which is a legitimate mechanism and one more thing to document. LeadJourney hosts in Frankfurt with full EU data residency, tracks first-party on your own domain, provides an Art. 28 GDPR DPA on request, and the team and the documentation are German. For DACH and EU teams that removes a step from the evaluation. Hyros does hold a SOC 2 Type 2 report, which LeadJourney does not yet, so a reviewer who needs that attestation should know.

Does LeadJourney do call tracking like Hyros?

Yes. LeadJourney sells call tracking as an add-on: static numbers per campaign or dynamic number insertion per visitor, billed per number plus usage, and CallRail or Podium if you already run one. Hyros attributes calls through CallRail, Ringba and iClosed. In both cases the call lands in the same journey as the forms and CRM stages and is attributed to the same click. Where LeadJourney goes further is the conversions around the call: the booked meeting, the qualified stage and the closed deal are conversions out of the box, without a call tracking product in between.

We run a Shopify store. Does LeadJourney track it?

Yes. Shopify connects as an integration, any other shop system connects manually, and from then on orders sit next to the leads and deals: return on ad spend per campaign, ad and keyword, and where every customer came from, organic and AI search included. What stays with a dedicated e-commerce tool is the product-level catalogue analytics, creative testing on product feeds and the cohort tooling Hyros is known for; LeadJourney's core is the lead, with the store tracked beside it.

Can we migrate from Hyros to LeadJourney?

Yes. Setup takes about 21 minutes, and most teams run both tools in parallel for one to two weeks to compare the numbers before switching Hyros off. Our onboarding team helps map your CRM stages and offline conversions, and historical campaign data and spend from your ad platforms are imported during setup, so the reports are not empty on day one.
