6 Best HubSpot Sales Hub Alternatives

This page is for GTM buyers who know HubSpot Sales Hub and want 6 other software tools to weigh before they commit. Every tool here helps a sales team reach buyers and keep follow-up on track. The difference that decides it is focus: some tools center on calling, some on Gmail, some on enterprise deployment and some on high-volume email sending.

By Rishabh Ambasta, Founder, Modern Inbound.

The six tools are Klenty, Mixmax, Revenue Grid, Salesgear, Growbots and EmailBison. The list is in no particular order. Each section below sticks to what the vendor states on its own public pages, so you can check every line yourself before a demo.

HubSpot's Starter plan, described as essential marketing, sales, service, content and data management software, starts at $7/mo/seat.
KlentyA sales engagement platform built to capture active buyers and nurture passive buyers at the same time.US numbers cost $1.15 per number per month, and US calling is charged at approximately $0.021 per minute.
MixmaxA lightweight platform inside Gmail that helps you follow up and follow through.Plans from $29/user/month.
Revenue GridA Guided Selling platform designed for security-minded enterprises, which can run on-premise or on a private cloud instance.Pricing is on request: the pricing page asks you to get a quote.
SalesgearA sales engagement platform that protects your domain inside the platform.Free at $0, Basic at $49, Pro at $99 and Pro Plus at $199 per month.
GrowbotsA sales engagement solution that Growbots presents as comprehensive and goal focused.A free base option, with paid options starting from $29 and from $39, plus credits per prospect from $0.13.
EmailBisonA master inbox that auto attaches default tags, such as the lead's email service provider, and lets you add custom tags.Base Plan at $599/month, including 500,000 emails per month.

Read the pricing column with care. Some vendors price per seat, some per month for the whole account, some per phone number or minute, and one asks you to request a quote. Two numbers that look close can mean very different totals once you count your reps, mailboxes and call minutes.

Choosing between them

A shortlist is easier to judge when you score each tool against the same plain checks. These five cover most of what decides fit for a sales team.

  • Team size and seats. Count how many people will use the tool every day and how many only need to view reports. Per-seat pricing grows with headcount, while flat monthly plans stay the same as you add people.
  • Channels. List the channels your reps actually use: email, phone, or both. A tool built around calling and a tool built around the inbox solve different problems, even when both call themselves sales engagement.
  • Contract terms. Ask whether the price you saw is billed monthly or yearly, what happens at renewal, and whether you can change plans mid-term. Annual billing often lowers the monthly figure and raises the upfront commitment.
  • Reporting. Decide which numbers your managers review each week, then check that the tool shows them without exports or spreadsheets. Ask to see a live report in the demo.
  • How leads are handed over. Map the path from a first touch to a rep or account owner. Check how activity syncs back to your CRM, who gets notified, and how a lead moves between teams so nothing sits unseen.

Once you have answers for each check, the shortlist usually shrinks to two tools. Run a short trial with real reps on both before you sign.

The pricing we found sits on HubSpot's marketing pricing page, so treat it as a guide to the wider platform and ask HubSpot directly for Sales Hub seat prices. That page lists a free option for up to 2 users with no credit card required. It lists a Starter plan, described as covering marketing, sales, service, content and data management, from $7/mo/seat. Its Professional tier, aimed at marketing teams, starts at $800/mo. Its Enterprise tier, aimed at marketing organizations, starts at $3,600/mo.

How we compared

This comparison is based on each company's own public pages as of November 2026. We read each vendor's public pricing, product and service pages, checked in late October and early November 2026, and wrote down only what those pages state. HubSpot prices come from its marketing pricing page, which is why the HubSpot section points you to HubSpot for Sales Hub seat prices. Prices change often, so confirm current figures with each vendor before you buy.
