Convert Pro vs Popup Maker Pro

In Convert Pro vs Popup Maker Pro, the core job is the same. Both show a popup at the right moment, on exit intent or on click, and both limit it with rules for pages and devices, so a visitor only sees the offer where it fits. Both are installed as plugins on your own site, so popups and settings stay in your WordPress install instead of a hosted popup service.

The weight sits in different places. Convert Pro is a lead generation toolkit: a drag and drop editor with ready-made templates, info bars, slide-ins and inline calls to action, targeting by page, referrer and device, A/B split tests and more than 30 email marketing integrations. Popup Maker Pro is a dedicated popup engine: you design popups in the block editor, trigger them on exit intent, scroll depth, time delay or click, target pages, devices and visitors, and connect them to Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms and Ninja Forms. Its Pro license adds analytics and revenue attribution per popup.

Convert Pro suits agencies, freelancers and site owners who run opt-in forms on several sites and want one license for all of them. There is one plan with every feature, so you never compare tiers, and support stays included for life. Keep in mind that there is no free version, so the 14 day refund window is your test period, and the upfront price is high if you only need one popup on one small site.

Popup Maker Pro suits a single shop or lead site where popups are a real sales channel and you want to see which popup earns its place. You can start with the free core, keep your existing popups and add Pro later. Keep in mind that the license covers one site plus staging, that support ends after three years while updates continue, and that the lifetime offer is marked as limited in time and can end without notice.

Only one of the two starts free. The free Popup Maker on wordpress.org has been developed since 2014 and its active installs and rating are listed on the deal page; Popup Maker Pro installs on top of it. Convert Pro has no free version on wordpress.org, so you judge it from the feature list and test it inside the refund window. If you look for a Popup Maker alternative because you need more sites on one license or A/B tests, Convert Pro lists both; if you look for an alternative to Convert Pro with a free start, Popup Maker has one.

Exit intent popups exist in both plugins, so the trigger itself is not the deciding point. Switching from one popup plugin to the other means rebuilding popups, display rules and form or list connections, because the data on record describes no import path between them. Set up the new popups on a staging copy first, compare them with the old ones and switch off the old plugin only then. The comparison table above lists both lifetime licenses with their check date.
