HubSpot
HubSpot offers a full stack of software for marketing, sales, and customer service, with a completely free CRM at its core. They’re powerful alone — but even better when used together.
Accelo and HubSpot, at first glance, are much like two slightly overenthusiastic salespeople at a networking event—both brimming with CRM capabilities, eager to automate things you didn’t even realize needed automating and always ready with an insightful report about your own business that you weren’t entirely sure you wanted. They both live in the cloud, where all good software now resides and they seamlessly integrate with other bits of technology you’ve probably forgotten the passwords for. Fundamentally, they exist to make you more productive or at least make you feel like you should be.

Accelo, however, is the sort of system that looks at a service business and says, "Ah, yes, what you need is a carefully structured workflow, with tracked hours, billable tasks and automated processes to ensure that no one, ever, has the excuse to say they forgot something." Conceived in Australia in 2011—possibly over a particularly well-organized cup of coffee—it specializes in keeping consultants, agencies and IT professionals in a state of perpetual, seamless operation. Unlike its more flamboyant cousin, it doesn’t fuss too much about marketing but instead ensures that work gets done, invoices get sent and clients remain blissfully unaware of the chaos that might otherwise be unfolding behind the scenes.

HubSpot, on the other hand, was born in the United States in 2006 with the sole purpose of making sure everyone, everywhere, knows exactly who you are, what you sell and why they absolutely must buy it. It’s an inbound marketing machine, a relentless generator of leads, campaigns and carefully timed email nudges that ensure no potential customer ever slips away unnoticed. It offers a free CRM, presumably to lull you into a sense of security before enticing you with ever more powerful paid features and it caters to businesses of all types—whether you’re selling consulting services, SaaS subscriptions or decorative garden gnomes.
