Momentum vs HubSpot

HubSpot is a full marketing and sales suite built for teams with people assigned to run it. Momentum covers the same day-to-day ground — CRM, funnels, email, and automation — in one plan an owner can run alone. Here's how the two compare.

This comparison is a high-level fit guide, not a promise of one-for-one feature parity. Product plans and limits change, so confirm current requirements with each provider before switching.

At a glance

Two platforms built around different priorities

HubSpot

Best suited for
Mid-market and enterprise companies with dedicated marketing and sales teams
Platform role
A modular suite where Marketing, Sales, Service, and Content are separate hubs, priced per seat
Primary focus
Marketing and sales infrastructure for organizations with staff to run it

Capability snapshot

  • Marketing, Sales, Service, and Content sold as separate hubs
  • Per-seat pricing that climbs as you add people
  • SMS available as a paid add-on from Marketing Hub Professional upward
  • Large app marketplace and a certified-partner network for implementation

Momentum

Best suited for
Small business owners running the business themselves or with a small team
Platform role
CRM, website, funnels, email, SMS, calendar, and payments in one login, preloaded rather than built from scratch
Primary focus
Capturing the lead, following up, booking the job, and taking the payment in one platform

Capability snapshot

  • Calls, texts, email, Facebook, and Instagram in one inbox
  • CRM and pipeline with booking and payment collection built in
  • Website, funnel, and landing page builder included
  • Missed-call text-back and follow-up that run without you

Day-to-day differences

Where the choice shows up in your workflow

01

CRM and marketing in one login

Contacts, pipeline, funnels, email, and automation are one product. There are no hubs to buy separately and reconcile later.

02

Two-way texting included

Momentum sends and receives SMS in the same inbox as calls and email on every plan. HubSpot's SMS is a paid add-on that requires Marketing Hub Professional or higher.

03

One flat price

One monthly price for the whole platform. Adding a person to your team does not add a seat charge on every hub you use.

04

Guided setup with a real person

Our team runs your onboarding as part of the plan. You do not need to hire a certified implementation partner to get started.

Best-fit guide

Which one is right for you?

Choose HubSpot if

  • You have marketing and sales staff whose job is to run the hubs
  • You need enterprise reporting and per-department permissioning
  • Your budget covers per-seat licensing plus an implementation partner

Choose Momentum if

  • You want CRM, marketing, and automation in one plan, not four hubs
  • You want texting in the same inbox as calls and email, not a paid add-on
  • You're running the business yourself or with a small team

Pricing context

Compare the full setup, not one line item

Momentum starts at $197 CAD/month for the Momentum Lite plan (for one-person shops), with CRM, marketing, and automation included from day one. HubSpot prices per seat, sells its hubs separately, and puts SMS behind a paid add-on on its Professional tier and above — so a comparable setup is several line items rather than one.

Competitor pricing models and feature availability described on this page were checked against each vendor's published pricing and documentation on August 22, 2026. Plans change often. For an accurate comparison, include the seats, contacts, messaging volume, setup, and add-ons your own workflow requires.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Momentum a replacement for all of HubSpot's hubs?

For a small business, yes — Momentum bundles the CRM, marketing, and sales-pipeline functions most owners actually use into one plan instead of separate Marketing, Sales, and Service hubs.

Do I need a certified partner to set up Momentum?

No. Momentum's onboarding is guided by our own team as part of your plan, not sold through a certified-partner network.

Does Momentum charge per seat like HubSpot?

No. Momentum is one flat monthly price for the platform, so adding a team member does not add a per-seat charge on each hub.

Who should use HubSpot instead of Momentum?

If you have marketing and sales staff dedicated to running the tools, an enterprise budget, and a need for deep custom reporting across departments, HubSpot is built for that. Momentum is built for the owner running it themselves.

Can I move my contacts and pipeline from HubSpot to Momentum?

Reach out and we'll talk through what's involved — in general, contacts, deals, and email templates can be brought over rather than rebuilt from scratch.

Is there a contract?

No. Momentum is month-to-month with no contracts, and it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee*.
