Clianta vs HubSpot
Everything HubSpot gates at $100 a seat - with the AI included.
HubSpot is a great platform with a pricing model built for a different decade: sequences and automation live in Sales Hub Professional at $100 per seat, onboarding is a $1,500 mandatory fee, and Breeze AI bills separately on credits. Clianta ships the AI-native version of that feature set at $29–79 per seat, credits included, live the same morning.
Where HubSpot is genuinely better
- Breadth: Marketing, Service, CMS, and Operations hubs in one suite.
- A massive app marketplace and partner/consultant ecosystem.
- Brand trust and a decade of enterprise-grade maturity.

AI model
Agentic AI Jobs: plain-English instructions run on CRM events, queue actions in a feed for one-click approval. Included in every plan.
Breeze agents and copilots, capable, but billed via credits/outcomes on top of seat prices, and mostly gated to Professional+.
Sequences & automation
All plans. 5 sequences on Starter, 50 on Pro; workflows with AI nodes included.
Gated to Sales Hub Professional ($100/seat).
Data entry
Auto-captured: emails, meetings, and forms land on the right records by themselves.
Logging assists exist, but the workflow is still built around reps updating records.
Setup
Connect email, describe your first AI Job. Same-morning go-live.
Onboarding program (paid), then configuration; agencies often hire a partner.
Best for
Agencies and B2B teams of 2–25 who want the pipeline worked, not just recorded.
Mid-market+ teams committed to the full multi-hub suite and its ecosystem.
Switch to Clianta if
- You're paying (or quoted) $100/seat mostly to unlock sequences and automation.
- The Breeze credit line on the invoice keeps growing and you can't predict it.
- You're an agency or small B2B team that will never use the other four hubs.
Stay with HubSpot if
- You actively use Marketing + Service + CMS hubs as one integrated suite.
- Your ops run on HubSpot marketplace apps and partner-built workflows.
- You're 50+ seats with procurement requirements we don't serve yet.
