In your process to find the best CMS for your business, you might wonder how Craft compares to CMS Hub. Craft makes no assumptions of how your content will be delivered, often leaving marketers to rely on their development team for updates and content creation help. CMS Hub delivers the tools that your dev team wants, while also providing marketers with an easy to use content creation experience right out of the box.
CMS Hub is a cloud-based content management system. With CMS Hub, both marketers and developers alike have the tools they need to create amazing websites focused on the customer experience.
Craft CMS is an open-source fully hosted content management system (CMS). It relies heavily on third party plug-ins to expand the use-cases of the CMS, and allows developers to structure their application data and deliver it through an API.

CMS Hub takes care of server management for you, giving you peace of mind as you build out your site.
CMS Hub has the features needed to ensure your site loads quickly every time someone loads a page. From automatic image compression, minified JS, and combined CSS files, you never have to worry about your content’s load time. In a study run by Pingdom, CMS Hub hosted sites consistently outperformed Drupal sites when it came to load time.
The security of your website is of the utmost importance to us. We provide every CMS Hub customer with security features -- regardless of how big your site is or how much traffic it receives. With a global CDN, SSL certificate support, and a web application firewall -- plus a 24/7 security team dedicated to the security of your site, you can rest assured that your website is well protected with HubSpot.
Put your marketer in the driver's seat when it comes to making changes to your website, and free up your developers to focus on building out solutions that will help you grow your business.
In addition to easy content creation, HubSpot allows for personalized content creation, and it’s time to start giving your site visitors the personalized experience they’ve come to expect -- without relying on a developer to implement it.
With CMS Hub, you also have access to the HubSpot CRM, which you can use to create personalized content based on any piece of information you’ve gathered on your site visitors. Smart content can be quickly implemented without any help from a developer to adjust the content that a site visitor sees based on device type, referral source, contact list membership, and a number of other criteria. You can also leverage memberships to deliver truly personalized profile pages or recommendations to specific site visitors.
Building a beautiful site is only half the battle.
HubSpot’s SEO tools make it easy to optimize your content for search as you create it. Once people land on your site, make it easy for them to convert with forms, pop-ups, and live chat tools baked right in.
Once your site is live, ensure that your website is driving business results using CMS Hub’s reporting & optimization features. Web analytics will show you exactly how your content is performing, and where referrals are coming from. Contact attribution reporting gives you insight into the pieces of content your leads are engaging with before they convert. Constantly run tests on your content using adaptive page testing to ensure your content is truly optimized for conversion. And never miss an opportunity to generate new leads, with not only forms, but pop-ups, live chat, and conversational bots included right out of the box.
