HubSpot for Startups - Get up to 90% off HubSpot's sales and marketing software.

Very cool stuff, @dharmesh. Is there any leeway with regard to the funding and ARR figures for the Seed Stage package? ... For companies based in certain expensive geographies (where seed rounds tend to be larger), there could be a big gray area in these tiers between the specified Seed scoping and the Series A round. Just askin' ;)

great idea. hubspot has great soft. and the idea of sharing some at low cost for a starter business is great.

Pros:

great idea

Cons:

none,paid?

Great idea! Hubspot is a good product.

I applied for the program through Start-Up Chile accelerator for my startup.

I would like to start saying that it is not a perk or a benefict but a scam.

As some people advice us that HubSpot is a great tool for inbound marketing, but at the end of the day there is no inbound product included in the perk, it is just a simple CRM and useless chat for the website.

Finally we did our inbound by hand, and found a good CRM with a great chat automatization with less than hubspot charge us.

Now I am using none of the 4 agents that I strated with, but they still charging for each one of thoose arguing that it is a 12 month contract. Finally I am wasting 30 dollars per month with this program. Keep away of them.

Pros:

It is a basic CRM

Cons:

They force you for a 12 month contract per agent

We use Hubspot in our company for managing clients' information. Super-tool. But sometimes it's clumsy to track all time spent in Hubspot. That's why we've decided to add TMetric time tracker as it smoothly integrates with Hubspot. I recommend it to try: https://tmetric.com/integrations...

I applied for the program through Start-Up Chile accelerator for my startup. It is a bad product, it lacks of quality, features and it is expensive. That is ok, you have the choice to deliver bad quality as I have the choice to find other solution. But I can not cancel hubspot account, now we are attached to a 12month contract per agent without any advert. I'm watching how they take my money every month even when I am not using it, and i begging them to cancel my account, they refuse. Keep away from hubspot for startups, this is more a SCAM than a support program.

I've always had conflicting thoughts on the "Startup" pricing plans by Drift, Intercom, Hubspost etc. I love the discounts, but it very clearly shows how much they are overpaying traditional businesses. From my standpoint, there can only be a 90% discount if there is at least a 90% margin on the typical price. I HIGHLY doubt that they are losing any money on these plans. The B2B SaaS industry is currently seems to be in a golden age of high pricing but I wonder how long it can last. Anyways, I'm in the Intercom startup plan so I can't complain too much :)

As a marketers I have has the chance to use many different marketing automation platforms for the last 12 years. The evolution is amazing in this time period, but so far, Hubspot has been my favourite marketing automation platform. Super complete, we can manage and report on most digital channels. I am an Inbound and Hubspot fan!

Pros:

Very complete, all-in-one marketing automation platform. Very user friendly.

Cons:

After the startup offer period, it is quite expensive to keep it.

Startups, of course, never have enough hours in the day, but with HubSpot, your hours go a lot further. I can create a landing page in an hour, which is insanely helpful for me, and also my development team as I no longer have to pull them away from product to help me out. You can automates (almost) all of your marketing activities: email, social, campaigns, workflows, lead scoring, and even tie in ads!

Pros:

Great for any startup! You won't find a better bang for your buck anywhere else, and it's replaces about 5 different separate services.

Cons:

Their Sales product needs a better SaaS-based deal structure. Right now, you can't automate recurring deals, but they're working on it.

HubSpot is the best all-in-1 marketing software ever.
