Insightly

Insightly starts at $41/user/mo (Plus) on the Plus plan, billed annually. Its free plan was discontinued in October 2024, so Plus is the entry point. No onboarding fee applies on entry plans.

No. Insightly's free tier is No. A free trial is available so you can evaluate the platform, including its built-in project management module, before committing to a paid plan.

Insightly combines CRM with native project management. You can track a deal through close and then convert it into a project, assigning tasks, milestones, and Gantt charts, all within the same platform. This is a genuine differentiator for service businesses, agencies, and consultancies where the sale leads directly into a delivery phase.

Marketing automation is available as a separate paid add-on called Insightly Marketing, not included in the core CRM plans. If email marketing automation is central to your needs, factor the add-on cost into your comparison, as it will increase the total monthly outlay beyond the headline per-user rate.

Insightly connects with more than 250 tools including Gmail, Outlook, Google Drive, Slack, Mailchimp, QuickBooks, Xero, and Zapier. The integration library covers common business tools and the Zapier connection extends reach to thousands of additional apps.

HubSpot has a free plan for up to 2 users (Insightly discontinued its free plan in October 2024) and a much larger integration ecosystem. Insightly's advantage is the built-in project management module, which HubSpot does not offer natively. Insightly also has Australian-founded heritage, though both products are available globally. For small businesses whose work involves delivery projects after the sale, Insightly is worth evaluating alongside HubSpot.

Insightly was founded in Australia and has a long history with Australian SMBs and service businesses. It is available globally and supports the types of project-based workflows common in professional services. Prices are in USD, so check the comparison table for current AUD-converted figures.
