In practice

How Chili Piper and Caletus handle the same job.

The situation

An inbound lead fills in the demo request form on your website.

With Chili PiperChili Piper's Form Concierge reads the answers and routes the lead to the right rep's calendar, as part of a plan that starts at $1,250 a month.

With CaletusCaletus doesn't route leads by form answers or territory. You can embed a booking page on the thank-you page, and on Enterprise round robin gives the meeting to the next free rep.

What it means: If any free rep will do, Caletus covers it without a platform fee. If the right rep depends on the lead's answers, Chili Piper does that and Caletus doesn't.
