CartFlows models each funnel as a parent cartflows_flow post and each step as a child cartflows_step post, with step type, A/B variant, and offer settings stored in postmeta. The default admin shows funnels in a drag-and-drop builder and serves analytics through a separate dashboard, so cross-funnel questions, which checkout converts best across every funnel, which upsells consistently underperform, where the worst drop-off lives in the funnel mix, require switching contexts and writing numbers in a notepad.

SleekView Charts joins flows with their steps and pivots the postmeta into chart-ready columns. Revenue per funnel ranks on a Bar chart. Step conversion rates rank across every funnel on a separate Bar. Step type mix (landing, checkout, upsell, thank-you) breaks down on a Donut. Daily conversion volume layers on an Area trend so a launch landing or a holiday spike is visible at a glance.

The dashboard pairs with the SleekView CartFlows table view so growth marketers click the worst-converting step on the Bar and drill into the row to plan the next test. Inline status edits route through CartFlows' status-change API so analytics events and automation triggers fire correctly on pause or activate.

CartFlows encourages building funnels and is less helpful at telling you which funnels actually work. The plugin ships a respectable analytics tab but presents per-flow metrics rather than a ranked cross-flow list. The optimization workflow that growth marketers actually run looks like: rank every step across every funnel by conversion rate, find the top three patterns to copy and the bottom three to test against, then dig in.

The default UI requires opening each flow's analytics one at a time and writing numbers in a notepad, a tax that grows with every new funnel added to the platform. SleekView Charts builds the dashboard directly on cartflows_flow and cartflows_step. Revenue per funnel ranks on one Bar.

Step conversion ranks across every funnel on another. Step type mix and daily conversion volume round out the picture. Combined with the SleekView CartFlows table view for inline status edits through the plugin's API, the optimization loop becomes short enough to actually run weekly instead of saving for the next quarterly review.
