Hubspot versus Futy

Hubspot has a wide range of tools and products for inbound marketing, sales, and customer service. They offer 5 Hubs for each respective suite.

The idea for Hubspot was conceived in 2004 by two graduate students at MIT who saw the need for a more helpful, less interruptive, customer service platform. Nowadays, Hubspot has over 140,000 customers in 120+ countries and can be seen as one of Salesforce’s main competitors.

Hubspot’s products and plans are sorted into Hubs for Marketing, Sales, Customer Service, CMS, and Operations. You can combine the Hubs to create your own bundle or choose the complete Hubspot suite. Their Live Chat is included in the Free Tools plan of the Service Hub. This suite also includes the free features of their CRM Hub.

In 2017 Hubspot acquired a company named Motion.ai, a company purely focused on creating the best chatbots. Motion.ai is now known as Hubspot’s Chatbot Builder and is included in their CRM hub.

The Service Hub has integration options for more than 50 apps, most of which incur an additional fee.

Futy is a Dutch provider that mostly targets the local market but has options for English or multilingual widgets. Their website is only available in Dutch, though.

With the Futy Dynamic Lead generation chatbots, your website visitors can be converted into Leads in a user-friendly manner, for example via email, WhatsApp, telephone, or video call. The excellent analytics integration will help you keep track.

You can choose from 15+ templates with different buttons and combine specific functionalities to display on pages of choice, however, it suits your needs. The widgets can contain links to multiple channels and contact forms like a call back request, planning a video call with Calendly, or requesting a quotation.
