HubSpot runs marketing, sales, service and content in one platform. Many teams use a fraction of that, then find that moving up from Starter brings a required onboarding fee and a much higher monthly bill. That is when they look for a HubSpot alternative.
Clivly is a focused CRM with bulk email, chat and AI, connected to your own application's data. Pro is $16 a seat monthly or $13 annually, under HubSpot Starter's $20 and $15 list prices, with no onboarding fee at any tier.
