is hubspot overkill for a 6 person company?

Sales lives in spreadsheets, marketing uses Mailchimp, and nothing talks to each other. Someone suggested HubSpot. For a team our size, what does it actually fix, and which hub would you start with?

Same experience here at 8 people. The one to watch if you go onto Marketing Hub is that the price climbs with your number of marketing contacts, not just seats, so importing a big old list can bump you up a tier. You can mark people as non-marketing contacts to keep that down.

Not on the free CRM or Starter. The painful bit is the jump to Professional. What do you need it for, just deals or email automation too?
