Overview
HubSpot is an all-in-one CRM that unifies marketing, sales, and service data in one record. Its free tier is strong enough for early teams, while Professional and Enterprise hubs add automation, attribution, and governance. We see it most often when inbound lead flow and CRM need to live in the same system.
