FAQ

Is HubSpot's free CRM enough for a restaurant?

It stores contacts well. It does not include reservations, review AI, floor plans, or social scheduling. The moment you need workflows and campaigns, you move to paid tiers that scale with features and seats — verify HubSpot pricing.

Can Komby replace HubSpot completely?

For restaurants and small offices running service businesses, often yes. For enterprises with complex B2B sales pipelines and dedicated marketing operations teams, HubSpot may remain the better fit — different target market.

What about HubSpot's 1,500 integrations?

Does Komby have marketing automation?

Yes. Komby Buzz automates social (AI content, bulk scheduling). Komby Up runs segmented customer campaigns. Advanced email and SMS marketing can connect via a dedicated email partner when you need that channel.
