Straight talk
Where each one wins
Where HubSpot may still be the better fit
- You need marketing automation and email campaigns in one place
- You depend on specific HubSpot integrations
- Your marketing team lives in HubSpot workflows
- You want a vendor to own uptime and deliverability
Our honest take: if HubSpot is your marketing engine, it earns its price. If you mainly need a clean sales CRM without per-seat billing and you'd rather own the database, CRM on our hosting is the honest choice.
Making the move
How to switch from HubSpot
Moving from HubSpot to Managed CRM on Last Hour Hosting is a guided process. Here is what it looks like, step by step.
Step 1
Export your HubSpot contacts, companies, and deals as CSV files.
Step 2
Send us the exports and we import them into CRM, mapping your custom fields.
Step 3
Recreate your pipelines and stages, then invite your team and set permissions.
Step 4
Verify deal records and activity history, then move your forms and workflows over.
The upside
Why Managed CRM is a strong HubSpot alternative
- CRM is open source and self-hosted, so your customer data stays on your server rather than HubSpot's cloud.
- One flat $29/mo replaces HubSpot's contact tiers and marketing add-ons that get expensive fast.
- You can customize fields and pipelines freely without hitting the plan limits HubSpot uses to push upgrades.
Frequently asked questions
Can I import my HubSpot contacts into CRM?
Yes. We can bring your contacts, companies, and deals across from a HubSpot export into CRM so your pipeline stays intact.
Does CRM charge per seat like HubSpot?
No. Our CRM hosting is $29/mo flat. You can invite your whole team without a per-seat fee, because the instance runs on your own server.
Is CRM as feature-rich as HubSpot?
CRM covers contacts, companies, deals, pipelines, and notes. HubSpot goes much deeper into marketing automation, email campaigns, and its app marketplace. If you mainly need a clean sales CRM, this is more than enough.
Can CRM replace HubSpot's marketing automation too?
It is a CRM focused on contacts, companies, deals, and pipelines. It handles sales workflow well but does not match HubSpot's full marketing suite, so pair it with a dedicated email tool if campaign automation is essential.
How do HubSpot custom properties carry over to CRM?
We export your HubSpot records with custom properties included, then map them to equivalent fields in CRM. During migration we review the mapping with you so no important data lands in the wrong place.
