If it's for your own agency's pipeline HubSpot again, free/Starter tier up - the CRM is the real value and you'll want to know the product you're selling. Brevo as the cheap alternative: it also supports agency sub-accounts with custom login domains and branding, at a fraction of HubSpot's contact pricing. Practical notes
