Switching reasons
Why teams switch from HubSpot
After conversations with hundreds of teams, we consistently see three frustrations.
Add-ons stack up fast
HubSpot starts attractively, but email marketing, sequences, reporting and automations live in separate Hubs that each cost hundreds per month. Agencies quickly pay €800–€2,000/mo for features that are standard with us.
Marketing is locked behind high tiers
Want real marketing automations, A/B testing or advanced funnels? Then you need the Pro tier of Marketing Hub — only then do you get the full package. With The Agency CRM, everything is in one plan.
Complex for agencies of 3–50 people
HubSpot is designed for large organisations with dedicated marketing, sales and service departments. Agencies report that onboarding takes weeks and staff disengage. Our implementation takes an afternoon.

From HubSpot to The Agency CRM

"The migration took one day. Monday we were still on HubSpot, Tuesday fully operational in The Agency CRM — including all our deals and client history."
