SmartContact vs HubSpot
Looking for a HubSpot alternative?
SmartContact is a simple CRM for UK teams of 2 to 20 who sell to other businesses. Companies, contacts, calls, tasks, deals and pipeline in one place, hosted in London, and it works with the AI assistant you already use.

Where HubSpot is the better fit
- One vendor for marketing, sales, service and website (CMS) software.
- A very large app marketplace and a big community of agencies and courses.
- Built-in AI agents for prospecting and customer service, paid for with HubSpot Credits.
Why HubSpot users look at SmartContact
- They only need a CRM, and want a price that stays simple as the team grows.
- They prefer a UK company, prices in pounds and data hosted in London.
- They want to use the AI assistant they already have (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot) rather than buy credits.
