You don't need to overpay to get great features that do what you need
The problem with all-in-one solutions like HubSpot is that you end up paying a premium price for a lot of basic features with limited depth. As the leading customer experience automation platform, ActiveCampaign provides the best in email marketing and marketing automation at a fraction of the cost, and doesn’t make you pay for features you won’t use. Skip double-paying (and overpaying), and use ActiveCampaign for your marketing strategy.
