The short version

  • Only HubSpot has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: HubSpot free tier limited to 2 users and 1,000 contacts; severely restricts growing teams; Warmly individual-level identification matches only around 10 to 25 per cent of visitors, so 75 to 90 per cent of what you receive is company-level only and still requires a contact-research step, which is materially weaker than the automation narrative implies.
  • They diverge on capability: HubSpot covers CRM, Warmly covers Website de-anonymisation.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Warmly

  • A revenue team that wants inbound chat to qualify and book meetings out of hours without hiring an offshore SDR shiftnot HubSpot

  • A sales leader who wants to surface existing relationships inside the company with a visiting account rather than starting coldnot HubSpot

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

HubSpot

  • Free tier limited to 2 users and 1,000 contacts; severely restricts growing teams
  • Many advanced features (automation workflows, custom objects, advanced reporting) gated to paid tiers
  • Starter plan at $7/month per seat scales quickly for larger teams (300+ users would cost significantly more)
  • Free tier removes credit card requirement but lacks most enterprise capabilities

Warmly

  • Individual-level identification matches only around 10 to 25 per cent of visitors, so 75 to 90 per cent of what you receive is company-level only and still requires a contact-research step, which is materially weaker than the automation narrative implies.
  • The published annual figures start at 10,000 credits a month, and credit consumption scales with traffic volume, so a high-traffic site will exceed its allowance and the advertised price becomes a floor rather than a cost.
  • Individual-level de-anonymisation of EU visitors carries GDPR consent obligations that sit with you as data controller, not with Warmly, so deploying it on European traffic requires a privacy review and cookie consent design that most buyers do not budget for.
  • Match rates are eroding structurally as VPN use, browser privacy defaults and tracking restrictions spread, so the value delivered in year three of a contract will be lower than in year one for the same price.
  • Reviewers consistently report the analytics layer lacks depth for custom funnel reporting, attribution or cohort analysis, so teams that want to prove the tool paid for itself end up exporting to a warehouse to do it.

Warmly: What match rate should I actually expect?

Company-level identification is reasonably reliable, but individual-level identification lands around 10 to 25 per cent of visitors, so plan for most results to be account-level.

Professional plan requires a one-time onboarding fee of $3,000. Enterprise plan requires a one-time onboarding fee of $7,000.

Source

Published annual prices are 10,000 USD for AI Web-Deanonymization, 20,000 for Inbound Chat and 30,000 for AI Inbound Autopilot, each starting at 10,000 credits a month, with quarterly options available.

HubSpot: Is there a free plan for HubSpot Marketing Hub?

Yes, the free plan includes up to 2 users with lead generation, email sending, and success measurement capabilities at no cost with no credit card required.

Source
Warmly: Can I use it on European traffic?

Technically yes, but individual-level identification of EU visitors triggers GDPR obligations that fall on you as controller, so it requires a legal basis and consent design before deployment.

HubSpot: What is the cost of additional HubSpot Credits and marketing contacts?

HubSpot Credits cost $9 per 1,000 credits when purchased annually. Additional marketing contacts beyond plan limits can be purchased separately.

Source
Warmly: Is there a free or SMB tier?

Not meaningfully. The commercial model starts at a five-figure annual commitment, which rules out most small businesses.
