EngageBay
Tap a star to rate
EngageBay combines a CRM pipeline, email and SMS automation, live chat, and a basic helpdesk ticketing system in one account, with a workflow builder that can move a contact between sales and marketing stages automatically. It won't match ActiveCampaign's automation depth or HubSpot's polish, but it covers more ground per dollar than either for a team just getting a lifecycle program off the ground.
Pricing scales by contacts and by user, with a free tier covering a small number of contacts and basic CRM features, then paid plans moving up from roughly $12 to $80 per user per month depending on the tier and billing term, with the lowest rates tied to two-year billing commitments. It's a reasonable fit for an early-stage or budget-limited business that wants marketing automation plus a CRM and support inbox without paying for three separate subscriptions.
