Switch from HubSpot
Leave HubSpot. Keep everything that matters.
Most teams move in an afternoon: export your objects from HubSpot as CSV, import them into Growlyne with the HubSpot preset, and invite the team. Here is exactly what comes across, and what does not.

Step by step
Export from HubSpot, import into Growlyne.
- 1
Export each object from HubSpot
In HubSpot, open the index page of each object (Contacts, Companies, Deals, Tickets), choose Export, include all properties and pick CSV. You can also export everything at once from the import and export settings. Keep the Record ID column: Growlyne uses it to link records and to update them if you import twice.
- 2
Create your workspace
Sign up for the Free plan and name your workspace. Then recreate any custom properties you rely on, and your deal and ticket pipelines with the same stage names, so values land in the right place.
- 3
Import in the right order
Open Import, choose the HubSpot preset and upload the files in this order: companies, contacts, deals, tickets. HubSpot column names are mapped automatically; check the preview, adjust any column, and import. Associations are rebuilt from the HubSpot IDs.
- 4
Connect email and your website
In Settings → Email, connect your mailbox over SMTP and IMAP. Replace the HubSpot tracking code, forms and chat widget on your site with the Growlyne snippets. The docs show each one.
- 5
Invite the team
Invite colleagues from Settings and give them a role. When you need more seats, write to us and we upgrade the workspace.

Re-importing the same file updates records instead of duplicating them.
Side by side
HubSpot and Growlyne, honestly compared.
HubSpot is a broad platform with a large ecosystem. Growlyne is a focused, self-hosted alternative that covers the work most teams do every day.
| Topic | HubSpot | Growlyne |
|---|---|---|
| Where your data lives | HubSpot's cloud | Your server and Postgres |
| How email is sent | HubSpot's sending infrastructure | Any SMTP provider you choose |
| Shared inbox | Connected inboxes | Any IMAP mailbox |
| Pricing model | Per hub, per seat, plus contact tiers | One plan covers every hub |
| Paying | Card, automatic renewal | Bank transfer or cash, arranged with us |
| All six hubs in one plan | No | Yes |
| CSV export of any view | Yes | Yes |
| REST API and webhooks | Yes | From Starter |
| AI assistants and generated content | Yes | No |
| App marketplace with hundreds of integrations | Yes | No |
Not included
What you will not find in Growlyne.
Better to know before you move. If one of these is essential to you, HubSpot may still be the right tool, and that is fine.
AI features
No assistant, no generated emails or posts, no AI chatbots, no predictive scoring. It is a deliberate choice: nothing you store is sent to a model provider.
An app marketplace
There is no catalogue of one-click integrations. Connect other tools with the REST API, webhooks and workflow webhook actions.
Ads and social publishing
Growlyne does not manage ad accounts or schedule social posts. UTM tracking still attributes the traffic they send you.
Built-in calling
There is no dialler or call recording. Log calls and meetings on the timeline instead.
Payment processing
Quotes can be accepted online, but Growlyne does not collect card payments for you.
