Comparison
Folio vs BookFunnel
BookFunnel delivers your ebooks. Folio is where readers find them.
Where BookFunnel falls short for authors
Not a website
BookFunnel is an ebook delivery service and reader magnet tool. It's great at what it does, but it's not a website. You still need somewhere to send readers.
No public author site
BookFunnel landing pages are functional, not beautiful. They're built for conversion, not for showcasing your author brand and full catalog.
No blog or content
BookFunnel doesn't have blogging, content pages, or an about section. It's a delivery tool, not a home base.

The verdict
BookFunnel and Folio aren't really competitors — they're complementary. BookFunnel delivers ebooks. Folio is your website. But if you can only pick one, Folio gives you the complete author presence that BookFunnel's landing pages can't.
