Zapier published an article on May 19, 2026, detailing eight alternatives to ActiveCampaign for marketing automation needs. The guide compares HubSpot for AI-powered CRM, Mailchimp for beginners, MailerLite for small businesses with plans starting at $9/month for 500 subscribers, Klaviyo for eCommerce segmentation, and others like Kit and Omnisend. ActiveCampaign's contact-based pricing starts at $15/month for 1,000 contacts on Starter while alternatives often include free plans or lower scaling costs. MailerLite offers 3x cheaper top plans than ActiveCampaign equivalents with simpler form builders. HubSpot provides more integrated AI tools across features compared to ActiveCampaign's predictive content and automation builder.
