The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Funnel.io available connectors are gated by plan, at 113 on Starter against 579 on Business, so which sources can be used depends on the tier rather than on need; Postscript carrier pass-through fees are billed on top of the per-message rate, roughly $0.00418 per SMS and $0.00841 per MMS in the United States, and are routinely missing from the cost comparisons buyers build.
  • They diverge on capability: Funnel.io covers Multi-channel data aggregation, Postscript covers Shopify segmentation.

What people use each for

The jobs each tool is most often brought in to do.

Funnel.io

  • Collecting marketing data from ad platforms into one datasetnot Postscript
  • Exporting blended marketing data to BI tools and warehousesnot Postscript

Postscript

  • A Shopify direct-to-consumer brand that wants abandoned cart recovery by text rather than another email in an ignored inboxnot Funnel.io
  • A brand running a product drop where a timed broadcast to an opted-in list is the whole launch mechanismnot Funnel.io

  • A store on headless Shopify or a custom stack that still wants SMS built on order data through the SDKnot Funnel.io

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Funnel.io

  • Available connectors are gated by plan, at 113 on Starter against 579 on Business, so which sources can be used depends on the tier rather than on need
  • Export destinations are rationed the same way, at 13 on Starter and 46 on Business
  • The entry plan starts at $300 a month billed annually and the next at $600
  • SSO, SAML, audit logging and an enterprise SLA are Enterprise only with no published price
  • Funnel Measure is an add on available only on Business and Enterprise

Postscript

  • Carrier pass-through fees are billed on top of the per-message rate, roughly $0.00418 per SMS and $0.00841 per MMS in the United States, and are routinely missing from the cost comparisons buyers build.
  • The cheapest per-message rates require the $500 a month plan, so a small sender pays more than double the headline low rate per text.
  • The $0 Starter plan carries a $49 minimum monthly spend, so it is not a free tier and quiet months still generate a bill.
  • US SMS marketing carries real legal exposure under consent, quiet hours and carrier registration rules, and the compliance obligation sits with the merchant, not the platform.
  • It is SMS and MMS only, so email, push and on-site messaging live in a separate tool and audience suppression between the two has to be managed across systems.
