About HubSpot

HubSpot was founded in 2006 as a result of a simple observation: people have transformed how they live, work, shop, and buy, but businesses have not adapted. This mismatch led Brian Halligan and Dharmesh Shah to create the vision for the inbound experience and to develop HubSpot's platform to support it. With our powerful, easy to use, integrated set of applications, businesses can attract, engage, and delight customers by delivering inbound experiences that are relevant, helpful, and personalized. HubSpot is, after all, on a mission to make the world more inbound, one business transformation after another.

Who is this software for?

  • Built-in CRM and sales pipeline
  • Multichannel marketing (email, SMS, WhatsApp, chat)

Cons

  • Free plan limited to 300 emails/day
  • Advanced analytics only on Professional plan
  • Phone support requires Professional plan or higher
