WhatConverts does the call product better than any attribution platform, ours included: numbers in every market, dynamic insertion, recording, transcription, from $30. LeadJourney's add-on covers the numbers and reads CallRail or Podium as a source. The table is about what happens after the call: the CRM stage, the closed deal, the revenue the ad platforms should learn from.
Pricing
WhatConverts prices by features and accounts with usage on top, LeadJourney by marketing spend. Both ladders below are the published tiers.

Why teams switch
Three arguments come up in almost every migration call. Each one is a set of concrete capabilities, not a slogan.
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.
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.
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.
See which channels bring leads that qualify and close, not just the ones that fill the form.
Attribution written back into the CRM, so every lead carries its real source, campaign and keyword where sales works.
Conversions are recorded on your own domain and sent server to server, so ad blockers, iOS and declined consent lose far less of them. 95%+ of conversions captured.
Real conversions and revenue go back to Meta, Google, LinkedIn and Microsoft server-side, so their algorithms optimise on deals that actually closed.
First click, last click, linear, position based and the rest on every plan, switchable without re-tracking anything; custom models on Enterprise.
Google, Bing, YouTube, LinkedIn, email, referrals and the AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, Perplexity, Grok and DeepSeek) attributed next to your ads at no extra cost.
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.
A workspace per client with its own tracking, reports and unlimited client seats, a cross-client overview on top, built for agencies that run lead generation for others.
Reports that arrive by email on the rhythm you choose, per client for agencies, without anyone exporting a CSV.
Atlas reads your campaign, lead and CRM data and answers questions in plain language; Atlas agents watch the data and send daily or weekly reports to email, Slack or WhatsApp.
Frankfurt, Germany, with full EU data residency. GDPR compliant by design, with no transfer mechanism to document.
Public tiers from €129 per month, set by your marketing spend and visible before you talk to anyone, with a 14-day free trial and no credit card.

Switching
Nothing to export by hand. Add the script, connect the accounts, and run both tools for a week or two until the numbers agree.
Paste one snippet into your site or your GTM container, alongside the WhatConverts script. It starts recording sessions, click IDs and form fills immediately, and nothing about your current setup changes.
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.
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 WhatConverts off once both tools agree.
Original reviews
4.9 out of 5 across 11 public reviews. Quoted as they were left, shortened only by dropping whole sentences.
“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.”
Alexander SamarPerformance Marketing Agency“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.”
Steffen SiesingCEO, Bilanzmanufaktur GmbH“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.”
Andre WitzelFounder, Trading.de“The ability to seamlessly integrate data from multiple channels and see real-time insights has significantly improved our campaign results. We now focus on metrics that truly matter, like ROI and qualified leads.”

FAQ
The questions agencies and marketing teams ask before switching, answered the way we answer them on calls.
WhatConverts tracks leads to their source, with call tracking as its core: numbers, dynamic insertion, recording, transcription, routing, plus forms and chats, and a lead manager to qualify and value them. LeadJourney is the all-in-one attribution platform, lead generation first, B2B and B2C, with e-commerce through the Shopify integration or a manually connected shop: it tracks on your own domain server-side, tracks calls on static or dynamic numbers as an add-on, follows every form fill, call and order through the CRM stages to the closed deal, attributes that revenue across every touch with every model, tracks organic and AI search as sources, sends stage changes back to Meta, Google, LinkedIn and Microsoft, and answers questions through Atlas. It hosts in Frankfurt and prices by spend.
Partly. LeadJourney offers static tracking numbers per campaign and dynamic number insertion per visitor as an add-on on every plan, billed per number plus usage, and reads CallRail or Podium as a call source if you already run one; every call lands on the click that made the phone ring and is attributed like a form fill. What LeadJourney does not do is the call product around the number: recording, transcription, IVR, routing, SMS. If that is central to your clients, keep WhatConverts or CallRail for the numbers and let LeadJourney attribute the outcome.
Both publish their prices. WhatConverts runs from $30 a month for one account with call tracking to $160 with multi-click attribution, and $500 to $1,250 for unlimited agency accounts, with minutes and leads above the included amounts billed per unit. LeadJourney's advertiser plans run from €129 a month by marketing spend and the agency plans from €399 by managed spend and leads, with client workspaces included and client seats unlimited, after a 14-day trial without a card.
WhatConverts gives each client a lead manager and a source report, which answers where the calls came from. LeadJourney gives each client a workspace with the full journey per lead, the CRM stage and the closed revenue by channel, campaign and keyword, a cross-client overview for the agency, scheduled reports per client and Atlas for the questions that come up on the monthly call. If the client's question is which marketing paid for itself, the second answers it.
Its pricing page does not list a server-side sync to the ad platforms; the product is about tracking and managing the leads. LeadJourney sends every conversion and every CRM stage change to Meta, Google, LinkedIn and Microsoft over the Conversions API on every plan, so the platforms optimise on qualified leads and closed deals rather than on form fills, which is what moves cost per qualified lead.
Yes. Setup takes about 21 minutes: add the script, connect the ad accounts and the CRM, and map the stages that count as qualified and as revenue. Tracking numbers move to LeadJourney's add-on, static or dynamic, or stay on CallRail or Podium through the integration. Most teams run both for a week or two and compare the numbers before switching WhatConverts off.
