Stride CRM vs Pebble | Two Great CRMs for Land Investors

Stride vs Pebble:
Two Great Companies, Two Different Approaches

Both Stride CRM and Pebble are excellent platforms built specifically for land investors. This comparison helps you understand which approach aligns best with your business needs.

Why We Built Stride

We didn't build Stride to compete with Pebble. We built it because, as land investors ourselves, we were duct-taping 6 different tools together—and paying over $600/month to do it.

We wanted one clean, powerful platform that could run our entire business without friction or complexity. Everything in one place, at one predictable price.

💡 Note: We respect what Pebble has built for the land investing community. If you're using Pebble and loving it, keep crushing it! But if you're curious about a different approach—everything integrated at a flat rate—we'd love to show you Stride.

Two Different Philosophies

🎯

Stride's Approach
