[ Comparison ]

HubSpot for large organizations. ark.plan for Swiss agencies and SMBs.

Predictable pricing, in CHF

19 to 79 CHF/month, everything included. No per-contact fees, no modules to unlock over time. HubSpot starts free but real features (automation, reporting, portal) live in plans going up to 800+ EUR/month.

Quick onboarding

arkplan is designed for small teams who want to get to work, not spend two weeks configuring an enterprise CRM. Simpler UI, sensible defaults, we handle your setup within 24h.

Swiss hosting

Your data is stored at Infomaniak in Switzerland. Our practices follow Swiss nLPD and EU GDPR. HubSpot hosts in the US and Germany — never in Switzerland.

Public calendar + client portal included

arkplan includes from the first plan a public booking page AND a client portal (appointment, quote and invoice history). HubSpot has a meetings tool but the true client portal sits in Service Hub — a separate add-on starting around 100 EUR/month.

Frequently asked questions

3 frequently asked questions. Can’t find an answer? Write to us — we reply within 24 h.

  • HubSpot has a free CRM. Why pay for ark.plan?
    HubSpot's free CRM is a great starting point to test. But the features you'll actually use daily (automation, advanced reporting, client portal) sit in paid plans that stack up past 100 EUR/month. ark.plan includes CRM, calendar, invoicing and time tracking from 19 CHF/month — flat price, no hidden costs.
  • Can ark.plan fully replace HubSpot?
    For a Swiss agency or SMB: yes — ark.plan covers CRM, calendar, Swiss-VAT invoicing and time tracking. For a company with advanced marketing automation (multi-channel workflows, lead scoring, email campaigns) or complex sales pipelines, HubSpot remains more suitable.
  • Where is my data stored with HubSpot?
    HubSpot hosts in data centers in the US and Germany (EU). ark.plan stores exclusively at Infomaniak in Switzerland, under Swiss jurisdiction — out of reach of the US Cloud Act.
