Which of HubSpot’s powerful tools is the right fit for your wallet? Our insights into HubSpot pricing will give you the clarity you need.
From startups to global enterprises, more than a hundred thousand businesses trust HubSpot's ecosystem of Marketing, Sales, Service, CMS, and Operations Hubs. Each plays a crucial role in driving business growth - but understanding which combination offers the best value for your investment can be tricky.
Let's cut through the complexity. We'll share our honest insights about HubSpot's pricing, what we believe 2025 holds for the platform, and most importantly - how to choose the package that will deliver the strongest returns for your business.
Think of it like building blocks - HubSpot’s pricing structure is designed to cater to businesses of all sizes, offering tiered plans across its five main “Hubs”:
Each Hub features three core pricing tiers: Starter, Professional, and Enterprise, with varying features and scalability. And within this model is a seat structure - so you only pay for what your team needs. The seats are broken down by:
The Starter plan provides fundamental tools for small businesses, such as email marketing and basic CRM functionality. Professional expands on this with more advanced automation and analytics, while Enterprise delivers robust capabilities like custom reporting, advanced team management, and deeper integrations tailored for larger organizations.
And the best part? You can mix and match! HubSpot lets you build a custom bundle, so you're not paying for things you don't need. They really want you to grow at your own pace.

As a HubSpot partner of over 10 years, we’ve seen pricing fluctuate so we’ve put together some predictions for 2025.
HubSpot's pricing has inched up in line with inflation since they started in 2006, but they’re great at prioritising customer value over squeezing every penny.
In this sense they’ve become a real challenger to giants like Salesforce and Marketo. Even during tough times, they've offered flexible payment terms and more free tools. While some price adjustments are expected in 2025, we believe HubSpot will continue to provide great value.
The rate of HubSpot development is unparalleled which means not only can we expect some big updates this year, but also incremental price increases.
For example, HubSpot recently acquired Clearbit which they turned into Breeze Intelligence. We did a breakdown on this update and what it means here, but this is a key example of HubSpot expanding their capabilities whilst increasing costs for some users. We expect to see similar add-ons and price increases to the CPQ tools later on this year after their recent acquisition of Cacheflow which we dived into here.
Our take: While these add-ons provide incredible value, it's crucial to assess whether they align with your specific needs and budget. For businesses heavily reliant on data enrichment and CPQ functionality, the extra cost could be justified. However, smaller businesses might find the core HubSpot features sufficient for their current needs.
The pricing strategies of rivals like Salesforce, Adobe Marketo, and Zoho definitely influence HubSpot. But HubSpot's real strength lies in its unified platform. While competitors might seem cheaper upfront, we often see businesses switch to HubSpot after struggling with a bunch of disconnected tools.
We get it - looking at HubSpot's pricing can be overwhelming. But after implementing HubSpot for hundreds of customers, we've learned that the real question isn't about cost - it's about value.
For example, we helped Unipart implement their HubSpot Enterprise suite so efficiently that they saved a massive £250,000 before the project was even finished! And for a global aviation parts company, we integrated their CRM with external systems, giving them a priceless 360-degree view of their customers - priceless.
These are the wins you won't see on a pricing chart, but they're the ones that truly matter. But ROI is individual, so talk to us to see how we can help you get the best value.
Choosing the right package isn't just about your budget - it's about matching HubSpot's capabilities to your growth journey. Let's break down what really matters when making this decision.
In our experience, we've found that companies often underutilise the Starter package's capabilities. If you’re a small business focused on building a customer base, this package offers all the essentials.
For businesses with established operations looking to automate workflows, gain deeper insights, and manage growing teams, the Professional package may be a better fit.
Enterprise isn't just for big companies - it's for complex operations. Businesses requiring advanced customisation, hierarchical team management, and sophisticated analytics will benefit.

One of HubSpot’s standout features is its scalability. As your business expands, you can seamlessly upgrade to higher-tier plans or add hubs.
This flexibility ensures you can adapt tools to match your growth trajectory. That’s why it’s helpful to have a plan for growth and get an understanding of what the higher tiers and additional hubs can do for you in the future. Book a demo with one of our experts and we can show you how different hubs can help you scale.
While the core pricing is transparent, it’s important to account for additional expenses that are often overlooked.
But here's the good news: we've found that most clients recover these costs within their first year through improved efficiency and reduced spend on other tools.
