Too Many Point Solutions
While point solutions can sometimes offer you specific functionality for a single department, deep functionality for a specific channel, and the ability to quickly meet your one-off needs -- it’s important to think about your technology investment more holistically.
If you don’t, your business may experience unexpected hidden costs, disparate data, and lower adoption. In fact, in a survey of 1,700 software buyers, it was found that more point solutions lead to a higher cost of ownership, primarily driven by increases in personnel costs associated with using multiple tools.
And psychologists have found that switching gears and logging into disparate tools can take up as much as 40% of an employees productive time. And with the average marketer using upwards of 10 tools, that can add up quickly.

Disconnected Legacy Platforms
The other common approach to front office software is to choose a legacy platform that was built through acquisition of point solutions. While this approach can seem like a better investment for what you get, there’s more than what meets the eyes.
Each app or integration with the legacy platform is built on disparate codebases - making it more complex, time consuming and costly to implement. Disparate UIs lead to lower adoption, significant context-switching, and disconnected data - all with costly development requirements.
In fact, in a survey of 1,700 software buyers, it was found that when your CRM tools are all on one platform, you can have stronger connections among your data and systems, and greater ROI on your tech investments.

Overview:
Companies might consider Zoho to be more cost-effective, but the hidden costs of having a leaner product can be a barrier as you grow.
Creating new product integrations after the fact consumes substantial financial and personnel resources, with less predictable performance. It also creates the potential for new security vulnerabilities, since using several data sources puts you at the mercy of several data sources’ security/updating performance.

Agicap switches from Zoho to HubSpot and grows monthly recurring revenue by 8x
GrowSteak increases leads by 5,166% after switching from Zoho
Overview:
Marketo is a single tool that provides email nurturing and automation and requires costly
integrations or other tools to help with marketing, sales, and customer success.
To get the most out of a single email automation tool, you’ll need deep integration with a CRM (and a commitment to ongoing maintenance from your team).
Beyond email nurturing and automation, your team will need additional tools such as SEO, blogging, video, and more - which come at an added cost and increase in disconnected data.

Overview:
Mailchimp is a leading marketing automation and email marketing service. It is not a full CRM, so its customers are limited to using its email marketing tools to connect with audiences and drive conversions.
It offers some extra integrations for expanded capabilities, but without a deep integration with a CRM it risks becoming part of a complicated solution stack as business needs grow.

Customer case studies
Grove HR had a disconnected tech stack with no central view of their customers. By switching from Mailchimp to HubSpot, they grew their database to 30,000 contacts, with over 50,000 monthly website visitors, and saved their team 70% of their time managing social media by having a better connected platform.
Kinsta struggled with content marketing, sales efforts, and customer service due to a disconnected tech stack that included Intercom, Mailchimp, Calendly, and more. By switching to HubSpot, they increased sales-influenced revenue by $4.5M in two years, increasing average deal size by 50%.
Overview:
ActiveCampaign offers a variety of features, but it’s not a complete CRM and lacks critical functionality your team requires. Features such as ad management, live chat, meeting scheduling, calling, and more -- will all require additional tools or add-ons. As your business grows or market conditions change, you'll need additional functionality and will be forced to start adding more specialized applications to your tech stack.
This results in a disconnected CRM system, increased costs, and makes it more frustrating to adopt across your team. Instead of cobbling disconnected applications, HubSpot provides you with a connected platform with all the tools your marketing team needs at every stage of your growth.

Overview:
While both HubSpot’s Marketing Hub and Salesforce’s Marketing Cloud have advanced, enterprise-level features like custom objects and automated flows, social, and email; users rate HubSpot as easier to use (source, source).
Though Salesforce might come with similar features, it still requires an integration sync with other functions such as Salesforce Sales Cloud, introducing more disconnected complexity. And when it comes to cost, Salesforce support can cost customers 30% of their annual contract. Furthermore, Marketing Cloud users require a paid seat on Sales Cloud in order to view sales data, leaving your marketers in the dark.
