Dynamics 365 Sales vs HubSpot in the UK: the comparison
List prices are Microsoft and vendor published figures in USD as of 2025 and change; local currency and partner discounts vary.
| Criteria | Dynamics 365 Sales | HHubSpot |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Sales Professional USD 65 per user | Free CRM; Sales Hub Starter from USD 20 per seat |
| Price at 20+ users | Predictable per user | Professional and Enterprise tiers rise steeply with seats and contacts |
| Marketing automation | Customer Insights (separate licence) | Marketing Hub is HubSpot's core strength |
| Microsoft 365 & Teams | Native | Integrations |
| ERP link | Native to Business Central and Finance | Third-party connectors |
| Customisation | Power Platform, Dataverse | Custom objects on Enterprise; simpler model |
| Ease of use | Structured, enterprise-grade | Very approachable for small teams |
| Best for | Microsoft shops, complex sales, ERP-linked | Inbound marketing-led SMEs |
HubSpot is the easier start for a marketing-led UK SME and its free tier is real. Dynamics 365 wins once the sales process is complex, the company runs on Microsoft 365, or quotes and orders need to flow into Business Central. HubSpot's cost climbs fast with seats and contacts at Professional and Enterprise, which is where many companies talk to us about moving.
Choose Dynamics 365 or HubSpot: a quick test for UK companies
If most of the left column describes you, Dynamics 365 is the safer bet. If the right column does, HubSpot probably is, and we will say so.
Choose Dynamics 365 if…
- Structured, multi-stage sales processes with approvals and territories
- Microsoft 365 users who want CRM inside Outlook and Teams
- A native path from quote to order to invoice in Business Central
- Predictable per-user pricing at 20+ seats
Choose HubSpot if…
- Marketing-led growth with content, forms, email and landing pages in one tool
- A small team that needs to start today on the free tier
- Simplicity and ease of adoption matter more than depth
- No ERP integration required for now

What Dynamics 365 costs in the UK
Microsoft list prices in USD as published for 2025; Microsoft or a Cloud Solution Provider bills licences directly and local currency pricing may differ. Implementation is a separate fixed quote from Shyphan in GBP.
| Licence | List price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamics 365 Sales Professional | USD 65 / user / month | Core CRM: leads, opportunities, quotes, forecasting |
| Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise | USD 105 / user / month | Full sales automation, AI insights, Copilot |
| Dynamics 365 Customer Service Enterprise | USD 105 / user / month | Cases, SLAs, knowledge base, omnichannel add-ons |

| Business Central Premium | USD 100 / user / month | Essentials plus manufacturing and service management |
| Team Members | USD 8 / user / month | Read access and light tasks across apps |
Sales or Customer Service, 5-15 users
Implementation typically USD 8,000 to 25,000 (GBP equivalent quoted fixed): discovery, configuration, data migration, Outlook and Teams set-up, training and hyper-care over 6 to 10 weeks.
Business Central, single entity
Implementation typically USD 20,000 to 60,000: chart of accounts, HMRC MTD, migration of opening balances and masters, inventory and reporting over 10 to 20 weeks.
Multi-entity or with integrations
Scoped individually. Each additional entity, integration, localisation or custom Power App is priced as its own line so you can see what drives the total.
When we recommend Dynamics 365, and when we do not
We are a Zoho Premium Partner and an Official Odoo Partner as well as Dynamics 365 consultants, and we recommend by fit. Dynamics 365 wins when you are already standardised on Microsoft 365 and Azure, need Business Central or Finance for multi-entity accounting, or have enterprise security and Power Platform requirements. Zoho usually wins for UK SMEs on cost per user and speed to value across CRM, books, HR and helpdesk. Odoo wins when operations, inventory or manufacturing lead and open source matters. We will put that in writing after the discovery call, including the option not to proceed.
