HMHubSpot Marketing Hub
Teams that want an all-in-one marketing, sales, and service platform with a broader operational suite.
HubSpot Marketing Hub appears in the Gartner alternatives page and is also a high-visibility peer in the measured context, so it is one of the clearest alternatives to compare against Campaign Monitor. Buyers who need marketing automation inside a larger CRM-centered stack may prefer its breadth over Campaign Monitor’s more email-focused workflow.

That makes Campaign Monitor’s entry price clear in the supplied documents, while HubSpot is positioned more as a broader suite than a direct email-first tool.
CICustomer.io
Teams that need more advanced, behavior-driven customer messaging and lifecycle automation.
Customer.io is one of the strongest ranked peers in the measured context and is also listed as a Gartner alternative, which makes it a highly relevant comparison for automation-focused buyers. It is worth considering if your team needs more sophisticated segmentation and event-based messaging than a straightforward email campaign platform typically emphasizes.

KKlaviyo
Ecommerce brands that want retention-focused marketing with predictive analytics and deeper ecommerce integrations.
Klaviyo is a frequent co-mention in the measured context and is included in the ranked peer set, so it belongs on any serious Campaign Monitor alternatives page. It is especially relevant for ecommerce teams that prioritize analytics, purchase data, and retention-oriented automation over a simpler email marketing workflow.
Where Klaviyo wins- Deep ecommerce integrations
- Predictive analytics
- Retention-focused automation
Where Campaign Monitor wins- More approachable email builder

BBrevo
Budget-conscious teams that want email plus SMS, WhatsApp, and chat in one platform.
Brevo is both a measured co-mention and a ranked peer, and the supplied ActiveCampaign alternatives article highlights it as a budget-friendly option. It is a natural alternative if you want a broader communication stack and are comparing the cost of staying with an email-first product versus adopting a multi-channel platform.
Where Brevo wins- Multi-channel messaging
- Budget-friendly positioning
- Unlimited contacts on the free plan in the supplied comparison
Where Campaign Monitor wins- Cleaner email-first focus
- Design-forward builder
- Less channel complexity for teams focused on email
The supplied comparison page says Brevo has a free plan and pricing starts at $9/month, while the TrustRadius page shows Campaign Monitor plans starting at $11. In the supplied documents, Brevo appears slightly cheaper at entry level, while Campaign Monitor emphasizes ease of use and email design.
