Email tracking without buying into a whole CRM.
HubSpot bundles email tracking inside its Sales Hub and CRM. The notifications are useful, but they pull you toward an entire platform with tiers that climb steeply for teams. Maildriply gives you the tracking on its own — no CRM, no platform lock-in.
- Email tracking is a hook into a full CRM and Sales Hub, not a standalone tool.
- Pricing scales fast as you add seats and features; serious tiers get expensive quickly.
- You're managing contacts, deals, and a platform when all you wanted was open and click data.
- Tracking with no CRM tax — compose in Gmail, get analytics in Maildriply.
- Free during early access; no platform tier to climb just to see who opened.
- Only the gmail.send scope, and your From address is always your own Gmail.

Switching from HubSpot Sales
Can I get HubSpot-style open notifications without using HubSpot's CRM?
Yes. Maildriply gives you real-time open and click notifications standalone — sign in with Google, connect Gmail, and skip the CRM, deals, and platform entirely.
Does Maildriply change my From address like a CRM-sent email might?
No. Every email leaves your own connected Gmail account via the Gmail API, and we enforce that the From address equals your connected Gmail for DMARC alignment.
Is Maildriply cheaper than HubSpot Sales Hub?
During early access Maildriply is free with no seat or platform fee. HubSpot's paid tiers add up quickly across seats and feature levels. Early Maildriply users get preferential pricing when paid plans launch.
