Feature details and plan notes

Unlimited users

Creatio: Growth + Sales charges per licensed user. At least five platform users and a separate A$16,000 annual purchase minimum apply to new customers. The calculator gives each selected person a Sales licence. Other access types and product mixes can change the quote.

Zapla: Unlimited users on both Zapla plans.

Two-way SMS

Creatio: Creatio’s own Twilio Services app provides native two-way SMS inside Creatio. The Marketplace lists it as paid, with pricing on demand; it is not treated as an included Growth + Sales feature. This does not establish an additional fixed subscription fee or a requirement to use a third-party interface.

Zapla: Two-way SMS is included in Follow-Through. Number and message usage charges are separate. Bulk marketing campaigns are in Growth.

Online booking

Creatio: A listed Calendly connector brings scheduled or cancelled meetings into Creatio. Connector licensing and an eligible Calendly subscription are separate. Compatibility and current provider requirements need checking; this is not an included Growth + Sales booking service.

Zapla: Calendars and booking tools included on both plans.

Websites & funnels

Creatio: Growth + Sales does not include the separate Marketing product’s advertised landing-page builder. The no-code application designer is not evidence of an included public website builder. Website services and connections can be scoped separately.

Zapla: Self-service website and funnel builders are included. A done-for-you website build is separately scoped and priced.

Built-in business phone

Creatio: Creatio offers native calling through its own Twilio Services and Voice Telephony apps. The Marketplace lists these as paid; Voice Telephony is consumption-based, with per-minute pricing on demand. No extra fixed subscription or mandatory third-party interface is assumed.

Zapla: Phone access included; numbers and usage are charged separately.

Automation workflows

Creatio: Growth documents unlimited workflow count, with a soft cap of 50,000 executed custom process elements per month per environment. Unchanged standard processes are excluded. This is not 50,000 complete workflows; higher capacity requires an appropriate plan.

Zapla: Unlimited workflow/automation count on the underlying platform. This does not mean unlimited messages, usage or done-for-you setup; Guided Launch covers the agreed initial configuration.

Unlimited contacts

Creatio: Creatio Growth lists unlimited records. Database and attachment storage allocations are separate; marketing contacts, if the Marketing product is purchased, have separate commercial terms.

Zapla: Unlimited stored contacts, subject to fair use. Message usage is separate.

Shared email inbox

Creatio: Creatio documents shared mailbox access, permissions and sending from a shared address across products. Mailbox connection and configuration are required. The cited mailbox guide is legacy documentation; current account-level behaviour has not been independently tested.

Zapla: Included on both plans; channels are connected during the agreed setup.

Forms

Creatio: Current Creatio documentation supports importing external web-form submissions through webhooks. Form-provider setup and field mapping are required. This credits connected form capture, not an identical built-in public form builder.

Zapla: Forms and surveys included on both plans.

Quotes & proposals

Creatio: Creatio Sales advertises quote creation and sharing. Its Sales objects include orders, contracts and documents. Templates and any advanced proposal, signature or CPQ requirements must be scoped; no additional quote tool is automatically charged.

Zapla: Proposal tools included on both plans.

Invoicing

Creatio: Creatio Sales includes an Invoice object and order, contract and invoice approval workflows. Payment processing and accounting connections are separate; neither platform is presented as replacing accounting software.

Zapla: Create and send invoices from your CRM.

Database reactivation

Creatio: Creatio workflows can be configured for re-engagement. Broader marketing campaigns and sending channels depend on the selected products and connections. This is not marked unavailable.

Zapla: Database reactivation tools included in Growth, using targeted email, SMS or WhatsApp campaigns. Sending usage and separately managed campaign services are additional; results are not guaranteed.

Email campaigns

Creatio: Campaigns, segmentation and marketing email are documented in the separately selected Marketing product, outside the fixed Growth + Sales configuration. No Marketing subscription is added to the price comparison.

Zapla: Email campaign tools included in Growth, not Follow-Through. Sending usage is separate.

Bulk SMS campaigns

Creatio: Creatio Marketing and suitable connected messaging providers support campaigns. Product entitlement, consent, channel setup and sending costs require confirmation.

Zapla: Bulk SMS campaign tools included in Growth. Message usage is charged separately; this is not unlimited sending.

AI call answering

Creatio: Creatio documents inbound AI voice agents with configured telephony. Beyond the initial allowance, ongoing AI requires a separately purchased package; Start is listed at A$8,000/year. Setup, carrier charges and Australian deployment requirements are separate. Feature equivalence has not been account-tested.

Zapla: AI Receptionist is separately priced, outside both software subscriptions. Setup, scope and communications usage are agreed separately; no voice allowance is assumed.

See the licence calculation and billing details

Creatio’s minimum is an annual purchase requirement, not an extra fee or a five-user package price. A smaller licence subtotal does not meet the published new-customer purchasing conditions.

A$88 per full user/month, billed annually: A$64 Growth platform + A$24 Sales.

5 Growth × A$64 + 5 Sales × A$24 = A$440/month equivalent · A$5,280/year.

This licence subtotal is below A$16,000/year. The public calculator disables Buy for this below-minimum selection. The model gives every selected person a Growth platform licence and Sales access, with a minimum of five platform licences.

Checkout adds a 4% card processing fee; choosing invoice removes that fee. Taxes and payment fees are excluded from this comparison. Marketing, Service, paid support and paid AI packages are not added to the model. AI Studio and the platform’s included AI credits remain included.

Growth supplies the workflow and application platform. Sales adds packaged sales processes, quotes and invoice records. Enterprise adds higher capacity and governance; it is not required for the workflow designer.

Zapla: A$399 × 12 = A$4,788, paid monthly. Required Guided Launch starts at A$1,997 + GST separately. Creatio: A$64 per platform licence + A$24 per Sales licence per month, subject to an A$16,000 annual new-customer purchase minimum. The minimum is not added on top of licence spending. Below-minimum licence subtotals do not qualify for public online purchase; the minimum is not a quoted package for the selected team. Larger amounts use published rates, not negotiated quotes. All figures exclude tax, usage, optional services and payment fees. Feature bundles differ.

Zapla’s subscription is A$4,788 + GST for 12 months at today’s price, before usage and extras.

What does Guided Launch cover?

Guided Launch turns the software into an agreed setup for your business. It is required and priced separately from the subscription.

  2. Build and connect. Import up to 5,000 clean contacts and configure up to two pipelines, three forms, two calendars and three agreed automations.

A few practical questions.

Is Zapla cheaper than Creatio?

For the published new-customer offer compared here, Zapla has the lower subscription commitment: A$4,788 for 12 months of Follow-Through, paid monthly, versus Creatio’s A$16,000 annual minimum purchase. Zapla’s required Guided Launch is priced separately. These subscription comparisons exclude tax, usage and optional services; feature bundles differ. Existing-customer or negotiated Creatio terms can differ.

Is the minimum five users or A$16,000 a year?

Both conditions apply to the published new-customer offer. Five Growth + Sales licences total A$5,280/year, but the public calculator disables Buy below the A$16,000 annual purchase minimum. Licence spending counts toward the minimum; the minimum is not added on top. It is not a quoted five-user package.

Why compare Growth + Sales?

Growth supplies the workflow and application platform. Sales adds the packaged sales processes, quotes and invoice records used in this comparison. Marketing, Service, paid support and paid AI packages are excluded from the model; AI Studio and included platform AI credits remain included. Feature bundles differ.

Can I pay Creatio monthly?

The public checkout rechecked on 19 October 2026 shows an annual order total. Creatio states a standard three-year contract; monthly equivalent pricing does not mean a month-to-month contract. Card payment adds 4%; selecting invoice removes that fee. Your order sets the final payment schedule and terms.

What happens if I’m moving from Creatio?

We agree which data to move, which tools to keep and which workflows to rebuild before you commit. Follow-Through Guided Launch covers up to 5,000 clean contacts, two pipelines, three forms, two calendars and three agreed automations, plus testing and training. Existing workflows, conversation history and integrations are assessed individually. Extra work is scoped and priced separately.

Which plan includes marketing and AI Receptionist?

Zapla Growth includes Follow-Through plus database reactivation, email campaigns, bulk SMS and WhatsApp campaigns, and social scheduling for A$699/month + GST total. Required Guided Launch starts at A$2,997 + GST; sending usage is separate. AI Receptionist is an optional paid service on either plan.

Comparison details & sources

Creatio Growth + Sales versus Zapla Follow-Through. Australian pricing and checkout rechecked on 19 October 2026: Growth A$64/platform user/month plus Sales A$24/Sales user/month, with at least five platform licences. Creatio publishes an A$16,000 annual purchase minimum for new customers and a standard three-year term. The public calculator disables Buy below the purchase minimum. Sixteen Growth plus sixteen Sales licences reached A$16,896/year in checkout; invoice selection removed the 4% card fee. No purchase was made. The minimum is not added to licence spending and is not a quoted small-team package. Above-threshold examples are list-price arithmetic; final quotes, tax and payment schedules depend on the order. Marketing, Service, paid support and paid AI packages are excluded from the model; included AI Studio and platform credits remain included. Zapla launch, usage and optional services are separate.
