Replace HubSpot. Stop Stacking Hubs.

HubSpot's pricing model bundles you into multiple "Hubs" — Sales Hub, Marketing Hub, Service Hub, Operations Hub, CMS Hub — each billed at $50-1500 per seat, per month, on top of per-Hub and per-contact tiers. A 100-seat company easily lands in Enterprise pricing at $300K-1M/year. Aeion CRM, Marketing, Helpdesk, Content, and BI replace all 5 Hubs, each at a flat per-module rate (or bundle them under the optional All-Access plan), with the same functionality, stronger native AI, and no per-contact tax.

Aeion Module ↔ HubSpot Hub Mapping

Sales Hub → Aeion CRM

AI lead scoring blends demographic and behavioral signals — email opens, clicks, downloads — computed directly in the database so scores update continuously instead of on a nightly batch. Email sequences run on real cadence logic with A/B tested subject lines and auto-un-enrollment the instant a contact replies, and deal rooms give prospects a secure, audited space to review documents and sign.

Marketing Hub → Aeion Marketing

Wilson Score A/B testing rejects a "winner" until the result is statistically real, not just a lucky small sample. RFM segmentation flags at-risk customers automatically, and DMARC/SPF/DKIM pre-flight checks catch deliverability problems before a campaign ever lands in spam — with no per-contact tax.

Service Hub → Aeion Helpdesk

An AI Copilot drafts replies grounded in your knowledge base, Auto-Resolution reads the customer's mood before ever attempting a bot reply, and Smart Reply Guard keeps "thanks!" messages from reopening closed tickets — all at a flat per-workspace price that doesn't climb every time you add an agent. Read Helpdesk →

CMS Hub → Aeion Content

A rich block editor with 30+ block types — the same one powering every module's content — replaces HubSpot's CMS Hub and its HubL templating language entirely. SEO fields, XML sitemaps, and structured data generate automatically, and every edit gets one-click rollback to any prior version. Read Content →

Operations Hub → Aeion Blueprint + Workspace

Describe an automation in plain English and Blueprint's AI generates the full workflow — trigger, steps, and error handling — from 50+ built-in actions spanning every Aeion module, while Workspace covers the internal docs and runbooks Operations Hub never really solved.

Commerce Hub → Aeion Commerce

Native payments, subscriptions, and invoicing for both B2B and B2C — no separate commerce platform to bolt on and reconcile against your contact records.

HubSpot AI → AeionClaw

Nine supported LLM providers with per-persona auto-routing, so a sales question is handled by the CRM-scoped persona and a support question by the Helpdesk-scoped one — never the wrong context loaded into the wrong conversation. Spend caps stop a runaway AI bill before it happens. Read Claw →

Single Audit Trail

One identity across every Hub equivalent — a contact is the same record whether it shows up in a deal, a support ticket, or a campaign — backed by one immutable audit log and one SOC 2 report, not five Hub-specific compliance packets.

The HubSpot Math

HubSpot Enterprise stack for 100-seat mid-market (typical):

  • Sales Hub Enterprise: $150/user/month × 50 = $90K/year
  • Marketing Hub Enterprise: $3,600/month + per-contact tiers = $80-200K/year
  • Service Hub Enterprise: $150/user/month × 30 = $54K/year
  • Operations Hub Enterprise: $2,000/month = $24K/year
  • CMS Hub Enterprise: $1,200/month = $14K/year
  • Per-contact overages (~50K extra contacts): $14-28K/year
  • Per-add-on (Sales Hub Pro Add-Ons, etc.): $10-50K/year
  • Total: $300K-450K/year for mid-market 100-seat HubSpot Enterprise

Per-contract enterprise haggling can land $250-350K but the structure is per-Hub × per-seat × per-contact — every growth lever (more users, more contacts, more Hubs) raises the bill.

Aeion replacement (same 100 seats, same multi-Hub functionality):

  • Aeion platform tier (Enterprise): $80-200K/year for mid-market
  • LLM inference: $5-30K/year
  • Migration: $30-100K one-time (Singularity)
  • Total Year-1: $115-330K

Year-1 savings: $80-300K vs HubSpot Enterprise. 3-year TCO savings: $500K-1.5M.

The bigger story: flat pricing for growth. Adding 50 more seats or 200K more contacts doesn't change your Aeion bill. HubSpot would bill another $90K-300K for the same growth.

The Migration Playbook

Phase 1 — Discovery (Weeks 1-2):

  • HubSpot portal audit via Singularity connector
  • Per-object schema mapping (contacts, companies, deals, tickets, properties)
  • Per-workflow + per-automation mapping
  • Per-template mapping (emails, landing pages, forms)
  • Custom property + custom object mapping
  • App marketplace dependency audit

Phase 2 — Parallel Build (Weeks 3-6):

  • Aeion environment configured (CRM + Marketing + Helpdesk + Content)
  • Workflows rebuilt in Aeion Marketing automations
  • Templates re-created
  • Custom objects → become native Aeion collections, no schema hacks
  • App-marketplace deps replaced (Aeion modules or Singularity connectors)
  • SSO + user provisioning

Phase 3 — Data Migration (Weeks 7-8):

  • Contacts + companies + deals → CRM
  • Tickets + customers → Helpdesk
  • Email lists + automations → Marketing
  • Website + blog → Content (or keep on HubSpot CMS for SEO continuity)
  • Files + assets → Aeion Files
  • Per-team workflows preserved

Phase 4 — Cutover (Weeks 9-10):

  • Per-team graduated rollout (sales → marketing → service → ops)
  • HubSpot kept read-only for 60-90 days
  • DNS cutover for forms + landing pages (if migrated)
  • Reports + dashboards rebuilt in Aeion BI

Typical timeline: 10-12 weeks for 100-seat HubSpot Enterprise migration.

Why Replace HubSpot

$80-300K Year-1 savings

A flat per-module rate replaces per-Hub, per-seat, and per-contact pricing that punishes every dimension of growth.

Growth-friendly pricing

Add seats or contacts without triggering a new pricing tier — the bill doesn't move.

One identity

Contact, lead, deal, ticket, and visitor are the same record, not five reconciled systems.

Native AI

Nine LLM providers with per-persona routing, built into every module instead of bolted on as an add-on.

Better data model

Relational SQL instead of HubSpot's flat CRM-property soup.

Customer-owned data

Your database, fully exportable — never locked behind a vendor's export limits.

One SOC 2 report

Not five Hub-specific compliance documents to track separately.

All 5 Hubs replaced, each at a flat per-module rate
Singularity HubSpot bidirectional connector
Per-object schema migration
