Can I keep HubSpot CRM and use Intempt for marketing?

Yes. Intempt syncs with HubSpot CRM if you want to keep it. Many teams migrate gradually.

Does Intempt have as many integrations as HubSpot?

No. HubSpot has 1,500+ integrations. Intempt covers the core ones (Shopify, Stripe, Salesforce, Slack, Google, Meta) and adds new ones regularly.

What about onboarding fees?

Intempt charges $0 for onboarding on any plan. HubSpot charges $3,000-$4,500 for Professional onboarding.

HubSpot Alternative

HubSpot charges you per contact, per hub, per seat, and per onboarding.

Marketing Hub Professional is $890/mo before you add Sales Hub, extra contacts, or additional seats. Intempt puts marketing, sales, analytics, and AI in one plan. From $24/seat/mo.

Why teams leave

Why marketing teams are leaving HubSpot

Real complaints from real users, pulled from review platforms, community forums, and customer migration calls.

HubSpot bills you for marketing contacts. You start with 2,000. At 10,000 contacts you are paying $890 base + $400/mo in contact overages. At 25,000 contacts the overage alone is $1,150/mo. Your bill grows with your list whether those contacts buy or not.

Marketing and Sales are separate products with separate pricing. Marketing Hub Professional ($890/mo) plus Sales Hub Professional ($90/seat/mo for 10 seats = $900/mo) is $1,790/mo before contact overages or onboarding fees. And you still need a third tool for product analytics.

HubSpot charges a mandatory $3,000 onboarding fee for Marketing Hub Professional and $1,500 for Sales Hub Professional. That is $4,500 before you send your first email or create your first sequence.

Who is this comparison for?

Choose Intempt if:

You want marketing automation, CRM, analytics, and AI agents in one platform with per-seat pricing. No contact-based billing, no hub-stacking, no onboarding fees.

Choose HubSpot if:

You need HubSpot-specific ecosystem integrations, you use HubSpot CMS for your website, or your team is already trained on HubSpot and switching cost is too high.

Intempt vs HubSpot

Honest comparison. HubSpot has the best free CRM and the biggest ecosystem. Intempt costs less and does more per dollar.

Dimension

Intempt

HubSpot

Sequences / cadences

Intempt: AI-generated multi-channel sequences with Outbound Prospector agent. No per-seat sales add-on needed.

HubSpot: Sequences available in Sales Hub Professional ($90/seat/mo). Solid but requires a separate Hub purchase.

CRM

Intempt: Built-in CRM included on all plans. Contacts, deals, tasks, pipeline views.

HubSpot: Free CRM is strong and widely adopted. The best part of the HubSpot ecosystem. Hard to beat on ecosystem breadth.

Email marketing

Intempt: Email, SMS, push, and in-app messaging included. Journey builder with behavioral triggers.

HubSpot: Email marketing in Marketing Hub. Good visual editor. SMS requires add-on. Push requires third-party.

Analytics

Intempt: Product analytics, funnels, retention, cohorts, and attribution built in. No separate tool.

HubSpot: Marketing analytics and attribution reports in Marketing Hub. Basic compared to dedicated analytics tools. No product analytics.

Experimentation

Intempt: A/B testing for web, email, and in-app included on all plans.

HubSpot: A/B testing for emails and landing pages. No web experimentation or server-side testing.

Pricing model

Intempt: Per-seat only: $24 (Pro), $49 (Org), $99 (Ent). All features included. No contact-based billing.

HubSpot: Per-hub + per-seat + per-contact. Marketing Hub Pro: $890/mo + $250/5K contacts. Sales Hub Pro: $90/seat/mo. Onboarding: $3K-$4.5K.

Marketing-sales alignment

Intempt: One platform. Marketing and sales share profiles, journeys, and analytics. No sync lag.

HubSpot: Good alignment within the HubSpot ecosystem. But each Hub is a separate purchase with separate pricing.

AI capabilities

Intempt: 9 AI agents across marketing, sales, design, and analytics. Agents run full workflows, not just content suggestions.

HubSpot: AI content assistant for email and blog writing. Predictive lead scoring on Enterprise. No agent-based automation.

In their words

The teams that made the switch

01 / 03

“We were losing visitors before they signed up. Intempt's personalized experiences changed that - we started meeting people where they were instead of guessing. Once they're in, Intempt's automated email takes over and keeps the relationship moving. Acquisition and retention finally feel like one connected motion instead of two separate problems.”

Jim Stromberg, CEO

StockInvest

Case Study

StockInvest needed to turn anonymous traffic into registered users before any retention strategy could work. With Intempt's Experiences, they personalized the anonymous visitor flow, surfacing the right content and CTAs to boost signup conversion. Once users signed up, automated Journeys nurtured them through onboarding and deeper engagement, steadily increasing lifetime value.

Frequently asked questions

HubSpot free CRM has a bigger ecosystem and more third-party integrations. Intempt CRM is simpler but includes marketing, analytics, and AI that HubSpot charges separately for.
