Sales Growth Suite
HubSpot is excellent software. We built our platform on similar architecture. Where it diverges: HubSpot is sold as a SaaS subscription you configure yourself; Sales Growth Suite includes the configuration done for you, by an Australian team, in a weekly retainer.f

What HubSpot does better
- Larger app marketplace (1,000+ integrations vs ours ~60).
- Larger community + free university courses.
- Better fit for >100 users + globally distributed sales teams.
What Sales Growth Suite does better
- Australian setup team — not “watch a 4-hour onboarding video”.
- Setup work included in the monthly fee — HubSpot bills separately.
- Caps at $1,197/mo even with hands-on support.
- Local SMS pricing + Australian-region data residency.
When HubSpot is the right call
If you are a 50+ person sales team with global operations and need deep CRM customisation + a developer team to maintain it, HubSpot Enterprise is probably the better fit. If you are an Australian SME under 50 staff, the all-inclusive done-for-you model usually wins on time-to-value and total cost.
