Key Takeaways

Loyalty Issues

Long-term users have reported feeling undervalued, as the company’s pricing model often does not reward customer loyalty or offer competitive pricing for existing customers.

Market Position

HubSpot is increasingly focused on medium to enterprise-sized businesses, leaving smaller businesses to seek more affordable alternatives like Zoho. This shift may make HubSpot less appealing to startups or small businesses seeking budget-friendly options.

Commitment Issues

Users have noted concerns about the platform’s annual commitment requirements and the difficulty of canceling subscriptions, which can be problematic if users find the service does not meet their needs.

What users say about HubSpot pricing

Mohsin K.

The pricing of HubSpot Sales Hub may be prohibitive for small businesses with limited budgets, especially if they do not require all the features included in the platform.

It could be seen as an expensive platform at first, but when you start using it, you quickly see how it can help you close more leads and see the ROl.

For a small business, they limit almost every feature/function to try to entice you to 5x your monthly spend. You end up feeling enormously frustrated.

We pay for the lowest level of HubSpot as we're a starup. It makes working cross-team very difficult because contacts are "owned" by each employee and other employees arent able to see that contact has occured with that contact

Jordan C.

The pricing is slightly high but as we have grown using Hubspot we can see the benefit in using the system and are now happy with the price.

Andrew C.

Unless you buy the most expensive package, you get practically no value. Most open source software does a better job. Also they lock you in for a year.

Will S.

The price keeps going up higher and higher. But it seems that recent years has the HubSpot team focused on medium to enterprise businesses and no longer catering to the smaller (but larger) SMB market.

Ferenc L.

There are some advanced features that require additional payment, which leads to higher costs, but again, what you get on the lower tier is perfect enough to run a good operation.
