Overview

In your process to find the best CMS for your business, you might wonder how Sitecore compares to Content Hub. Sitecore is built for large enterprises to manage content and deliver experiences regardless of device or location. Content Hub provides the tools that your marketing, development, and IT team need to build a high-growth website, and scale your business.

HubSpot

Content Hub is an all-in-one, AI-powered content marketing software that helps marketers create and manage content that fuels the entire customer journey.

Sitecore

Sitecore is a self-managed CMS that is designed for large global enterprises. Sitecore includes core CMS tools out of the box and relies on integrations to extend the platform beyond content management.

Compare by Price

As an on-premise digital experience platform, Sitecore does not have a standard pricing model for each of its customers. Sitecore publishes a Forrester study on its website that describes some of the benefits of adopting its platform and provides benchmarks using a composite financial model gained from interviewing four existing customers. Sitecore’s pricing includes both upfront costs, as well as annual maintenance fees. In addition, Sitecore customers may have to pay for additional software and hardware, such as a data storage solution, in order to leverage the platform.


HubSpot, on the other hand, does not charge for hosting, storage, and premium extensions. Instead, HubSpot offers a simple pricing structure, just a once monthly fee. This allows teams everything they need to build a beautiful, performant website, without worrying about fluctuating month-to-month costs.

It’s time to start giving your site visitors the personalized experience they’ve come to expect -- without relying on a developer to implement it. With Content Hub, you also have access to the HubSpot Smart CRM, which you can use to create personalized content based on any piece of information you’ve gathered on your site visitors. Smart content can be quickly implemented without any help from a developer to adjust the content that a site visitor sees based on device type, referral source, contact list membership, and a number of other criteria. You can also leverage memberships to deliver truly personalized profile pages or recommendations to specific site visitors.

Building a beautiful site is only half the battle. Once your site is live, ensure that your website is driving business results using Content Hub’ reporting & optimization features. Web analytics will show you exactly how your content is performing, and where referrals are coming from. Contact attribution reporting gives you insight into the pieces of content your leads are engaging with before they convert. Constantly run tests on your content using adaptive page testing to ensure your content is truly optimized for conversion. And never miss an opportunity to generate new leads, with not only forms, but pop-ups, live chat, and conversational bots included right out of the box.
