Its offerings are split into \u201chubs\u201d based on the purpose they serve:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Sales Hub<\/li><li>Marketing Hub<\/li><li>Service Hub<\/li><li>CMS Hub<\/li><li>Operations Hub<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>HubSpot email marketing features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Email marketers will find most of the features they\u2019re looking for within the Marketing Hub. On the entry-level Starter plan, you\u2019ll get the following features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Forms<\/strong>: Standalone, embedded, and pop-up forms.<\/li><li><strong>Emails<\/strong>: Monthly email sending volume is five times your contact limit. (If your contact limit is 1,000, then you can send 5,000 emails per month.)&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>List <\/strong><strong>segmentation<\/strong>: Up to 25 active lists and 1,000 static lists. You can segment contacts only by submission data, contact property information, and marketing email activity.<\/li><li><strong>Landing page builder<\/strong>: Custom domains and simple templates.<\/li><li><strong>Reporting<\/strong>: Email health insights, basic performance metrics, including deliverability rates, open rate, and click-through rate. Additional performance data, like time spent viewing email and granular view of email performance with each individual contact.<\/li><li><strong>Integrations<\/strong>: Google Calendar, Google Sheets, Shopify, WordPress, Hotjar, Databox, and 100+ integrations.<\/li><li><strong>Project management<\/strong>: Built-in collaboration tool for HubSpot users.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3>HubSpot sales features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All the above features are a part of HubSpot\u2019s Marketing Hub. Sales teams will find more of what they&#8217;re looking for in the aptly named Sales Hub. Here\u2019s what\u2019s included on the Starter plan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Sales <\/strong><strong>CRM<\/strong>: Intuitive CRM software for keeping track of leads and deals with limited automation features.<\/li><li><strong>Live chat<\/strong>: Remove HubSpot branding from live chat. Limited automated features.<\/li><li><strong>Meeting scheduling<\/strong>: 1,000 meeting links per month.<\/li><li><strong>Deal pipeline<\/strong>: Two deal pipelines per account per month.<\/li><li><strong>Sales automation<\/strong>: Task and email notifications when deals change status.<\/li><li><strong>Reporting dashboard<\/strong>: 10 dashboards, 10 reports per dashboard.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the Starter plan, HubSpot provides a wide range of advanced features. On higher-level plans, the CRM solution can be customized and has more advanced automation functionality. The same goes for the Marketing Hub and marketing automation tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>HubSpot pricing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>HubSpot offers free CRM and sales pipeline management software where you can send up to 2,000 emails per month. You can also access basic email marketing features on the free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HubSpot\u2019s entry-level plans have attractive starting prices. Depending on your needs, you can purchase access to individual Hubs or a bundle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pricing for individual Hubs starts at $20-25\/month. The CRM Suite bundle starts at $50\/month for access to all the Hubs Starter plans. However, these entry-level plans simply add more credits and remove HubSpot branding from emails, landing pages, and forms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023.png\" alt=\"Hubspot pricing for different plans. \" class=\"wp-image-126493\" width=\"1082\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023.png 2164w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023-1024x509.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023-768x382.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023-1536x764.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Hubspot-pricing-June-2023-2048x1018.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1082px) 100vw, 1082px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, you\u2019ll need to upgrade to the Professional plans for more features. The Professional Marketing Hub plan includes automation, A\/B testing, contact scoring, content management, SEO, and social media management features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Professional Sales Hub plan offers advanced analytics, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/blog\/email-automation\/\">email automation<\/a> capabilities, higher inbox and sales pipeline limits, and customization options for the CRM interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is all well and good, but there\u2019s a pretty significant price jump to get these features. The Professional Marketing Hub starts at $890 per month, and the Professional Sales Hub at $500 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>HubSpot: pros and cons<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes people choose HubSpot?

Similar to HubSpot, Mailchimp offers a variety of products for marketing teams, sales reps, and customer support teams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If all you need is an easy-to-use drag-and-drop editor and the ability to build simple sales funnels, Mailchimp is a good choice for you. But if you need advanced automation tools, you\u2019d better search for a different HubSpot competitor. While Mailchimp offers segmentation and even multi-step automation workflows on its top-tier plans, building custom automations is hardly possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, transactional emails aren\u2019t included in Mailchimp\u2019s standard pricing plans. You\u2019ll need the Standard or Premium plan and buy an add-on (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/blog\/mandrill-alternatives\/\">Mandrill<\/a>) starting at $20\/month to send transactional messages to your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Mailchimp pricing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to HubSpot, Mailchimp is also more affordable. Its Essentials plan starts at $13\/month, with a maximum of 500 contacts and 5,000 emails per month. You can buy extra contacts, and the email limit will grow accordingly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discover more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/blog\/mailchimp-alternatives\/\">The Best Mailchimp Alternatives Compared: Make the Switch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"salesforce\">3.

There\u2019s a wide feature offering and nearly endless possibilities for customization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like HubSpot and Brevo (formerly Sendinblue), Salesforce divides its product into distinct hubs called \u201cclouds.\u201d The Sales Cloud is an advanced CRM solution, complete with workflow automation, pipeline and task management capabilities, AI-powered lead scoring, a powerful web services API, and loads of integrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for email marketing, the Marketing Cloud (Engagement) also covers all the bases. Users can create and send email campaigns, manage social media, personalize content, set up automation scenarios, manage customer data, and set up transactional emails.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite all its functionality, Salesforce is known for being rather difficult to use. Getting started on the platform often requires training, and users may not feel as autonomous as they would with other tools. For these reasons, it\u2019s best for sales teams with plenty of experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Salesforce pricing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Another downside of Salesforce is pricing. To get access to the full Salesforce CRM, you\u2019ll need the Professional Sales Cloud plan, which comes to $75\/month <em>per user<\/em>. And to truly benefit from Slesforce\u2019s strong suit \u2014 the options for customization \u2014 you\u2019ll need the Enterprise plan, starting at $150\/month per user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Marketing Cloud Basic plan starts at $400\/month. But beyond email personalization and segmentation, it\u2019s pretty limited in terms of features. To benefit from automation, you\u2019ll need the Enterprise plan, starting at $1,250\/month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What about Salesforce Pardot?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salesforce Pardot is the enterprise app by Salesforce for B2B marketing starting at $1,250\/month.

You can send up to 15,000 emails per month to 500 contacts, use SMTP relay, and create up to five one-step automation flows without paying a cent. SendPulse is well known for its powerful transactional email capabilities in particular.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, it supports SMS marketing, push notifications, and live chat. And for WordPress website owners, SendPulse offers an email plugin allowing users to send marketing and transactional emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the downside, contact verification and campaign approval often take some time. As well, the platform doesn\u2019t offer much in terms of customizable workflows or contact segmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SendPulse is definitely more geared toward email marketers than sales teams. While it offers a CRM, the solution lacks key features to support business\u2019s sales processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>SendPulse pricing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If the features available on the free plan aren\u2019t enough, you can upgrade to the Standard plan for only $8\/month or choose a Pay-As-You-Go option starting at $32 for 10,000 emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"active-campaign\">5. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/active-campaign\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/active-campaign\/\">Active Campaign<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3-1024x481.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of ActiveCampaign dashboard.\" class=\"wp-image-120204\" width=\"768\" height=\"361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3-1024x481.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3-768x360.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3-1536x721.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hubspot-competitors-3.png 1888w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ActiveCampaign is another HubSpot competitor. Its easy-to-use platform is popular among small businesses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ActiveCampaign is primarily an email marketing tool, but also offers an integrated sales CRM. Compared to the HubSpot CRM, ActiveCampaign is lacking in terms of features and customization, but nevertheless allows you to manage tasks, automate communications, and do basic lead scoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as email marketing goes, ActiveCampaign provides everything you need to get up and running with professional marketing campaigns and timely transactional emails. Its interface is intuitive and requires no specific training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>ActiveCampaign pricing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to some of the other HubSpot alternatives on this list, ActiveCampaign is one of the more affordable options. For $29\/month, the Marketing Lite plan includes email marketing and automation for 1000 contacts. The Sales Plus plan gives you access to the&nbsp; CRM platform and sales automation for $19\/month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transactional emails must be purchased separately, starting at $15\/month for 10,000 emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/blog\/activecampaign-alternatives\/\">ActiveCampaign Alternatives<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"marketo\">6.

Across all these verticals, Marketo offers cutting-edge features and deep data analytics to power highly targeted and personalized marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketo (now owned by Adobe) was originally created as a B2B marketing and sales software. It\u2019s since been adapted for B2C use, but it\u2019s by no means the most user friendly platform in the world.

What we can tell you, though, is that it\u2019s not cheap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entry-level plan, Growth, starts at $895\/month for ten users. If you\u2019re after Marketo\u2019s more advanced features or have a team of more than 10, you can expect to pay well into the thousands every month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we said, Marketo is a highly advanced software with a matching price tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"constant-contact\">7. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/constant-contact\/\">Constant Contact<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1-1024x676.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of automated email campaign scheduling on Constant Contact.\" class=\"wp-image-114486\" width=\"512\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1-1024x676.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1-768x507.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1-1536x1014.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Constant-Contact-Screenshot-1.png 1678w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Constant Contact is a marketing solution specializing in lead generation, event marketing, marketing automation, and online surveying.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the typical features of an email marketing tool, Constant Contact offers email surveys that you can embed in your campaigns to get insights into your customer feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company has designed its product around small businesses and nonprofits in particular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Constant Contact pricing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Core plan starts at $9.99 for up to 500 contacts and a monthly send limit of 24x your total contacts.
