Hubspot versus Feederloop

Hubspot has a wide range of tools and products for inbound marketing, sales, and customer service. They offer 5 Hubs for each respective suite.

The idea for Hubspot was conceived in 2004 by two graduate students at MIT who saw the need for a more helpful, less interruptive, customer service platform. Nowadays, Hubspot has over 140,000 customers in 120+ countries and can be seen as one of Salesforce’s main competitors.

Hubspot’s products and plans are sorted into Hubs for Marketing, Sales, Customer Service, CMS, and Operations. You can combine the Hubs to create your own bundle or choose the complete Hubspot suite. Their Live Chat is included in the Free Tools plan of the Service Hub. This suite also includes the free features of their CRM Hub.

In 2017 Hubspot acquired a company named Motion.ai, a company purely focused on creating the best chatbots. Motion.ai is now known as Hubspot’s Chatbot Builder and is included in their CRM hub.

The Service Hub has integration options for more than 50 apps, most of which incur an additional fee.

The Feederloop chat widget provides seamless video, audio, and screen-sharing calls straight from your website.

Feederloop was founded in 2021 with the goal of going beyond traditional text-based chat widgets by providing a complete audio/visual call experience while keeping customers engaged on your website.

Feederloop provides a rich feature set including:

• Audio or video chat.
• In-call or anonymous screen sharing.
• Intelligent call routing to agents and teams.
• Customers can leave voice messages when agents are unavailable.
• Replays allow your team to watch screen share sessions retroactively.
• It can be used as a stand-alone widget or integrated with other live chat software like Intercom, JivoChat, and Twak.to (more app store integrations coming soon).

Feederloop shines in customer support, onboarding, and sales by creating a seamless real-time audio/visual communication channel between companies and their customers.
