Q: Hey, how does JotURL compare to Replug?
I think a good few Sumolings have this tool (along with other URL shorteners) so I'm very curious what this would offer that Replug doesn't? If they are the same then I can skip this deal but If I didn't have Replug then I would be all over this deal. Thanks!

Thanks for the detailed table comparison. I spoke with replug and a few of comparisons are inaccurate and would be worth updating for the sake of fairness. (note I don't work for them. I own a LTD from them so I do of course want them to succeed but joturl seems just as good and has even more!)
Replug told me:
"1. HTTPS Link feature (Replug links come with auto-SSL certificates, your custom domain, and shortened links will be with SSL).
2. Access to Team Members to their specific campaigns and brands.
3. GDPR compliant (We are GDPR-Complaint, if you are using the lead-gen form, you can take user consent and add your privacy policy
4. Custom Third Party Widgets Integration.
UTM and deep linking feature will be added in the next few weeks."
Hi Sumoling,
thanks a lot for your valuable information!
The comparison was made few months ago, thus it needs to be updated (which we will be done asap).
Regarding the points you shared:
1. yes, even if it is slightly different. Replug allows you to use a single shared SSL certificate but it does not allow you to add custom SSL certificates to each of your domains and manage each of them directly within the dashboard (as far as I know). JotUrl provides this service within the dashboard. You can add custom SSL certificates (which, I can tell you, is an added value for brands and corporates) or use the built-in wizard to automatically add a free Letsencrypt SSL certificate. However we will update the comparison and specify this. Thank you.
2. yes, but again, this is a little bit different. As far as I know Replug has teams and campaigns, but you cannot manage a set of links within a campaign (you cannot jump into a campaign and manage your links as a list, or apply specific actions to them). JotUrl provides you with projects, which allow you to add as many links as you want within it and also you can manage the included list of links and apply specific options to each of them. You can also share entire projects and related links and analytics with single or multiple team members. Team members may be internal team members or just external collaborators. Furthermore JotUrl allows you to set specific rights for each member on each project. And shared projects are managed via different dashboards (list of projects) where one can switch from one subaccount into the other with a click. Moreover projects might be whatever you want: campaigns, channels, teams, etc.. In this sense you've more available options and things you can do (within projects and teams management). However we will update the comparison.
3. that's fine, but the GDPR compliance includes also GDPR consent management regarding remarketing pixels. This is where JotUrl provides you with custom templates that you can show up once (with a small and smart popup) to your users and collect consent on single remarketing pixels for each user. I've not found this within Replug. I might be wrong of course.
4. Yes, this is a feature Replug provides, which JotUrl still not provides. In fact JotUrl already provides you with custom remarketing pixels, but not with custom scripts for your CTAs for instance. However this feature is on our short term roadmap.
5. UTM --> fine! Deep linking --> I'm not that sure it will be a matter of weeks. Just saying that because advanced deep linking is a sophisticated technology which requires much more time of R&D. Within JotUrl this technology is already available.
Again, we will update the comparison in any case, asap.
Replug is a product we respect!
Thank you.
