Head to head
RevPartners vs Aptitude 8.
Written by a competitor of both, which is worth knowing before you read. The facts below come from each firm’s own site and public directories, with sources at the bottom. Revductive stays out of it until the last section.
02 / The difference
The short version.
Both are Elite HubSpot partners, but they sell different things. RevPartners sells an ongoing operating model: RevOps-as-a-service subscriptions, migrations, and an outbound layer. Aptitude 8 sells technical delivery: implementations, custom integrations, and platform engineering, with no marketing services attached. If you're buying a running service, compare RevPartners. If you're buying a complex build, compare Aptitude 8.
03 / Side by side
On the facts.
| RevPartners | Aptitude 8 | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | RevOps-as-a-service subscriptions on HubSpot | Elite technical HubSpot consultancy: implement, integrate, extend |
| Platform | HubSpot (Elite Solutions Partner; also a Clay partner) | HubSpot (Elite Solutions Partner; HubSpot Ventures portfolio) |
| Scale | Full agency team; fastest HubSpot partner to reach Elite tier | Largest technical consulting team of any HubSpot partner (their claim) |
| Typical client | Roughly $1M-$25M ARR companies committed to HubSpot | Mid-market and enterprise teams doing complex, technical HubSpot builds (clients include Uber Freight, SXSW) |
| Pricing | Fractional engagements reported around $3k-$10k/mo (third-party directories); packaged tiers on their site | Not published; enterprise project and retainer work |
| HQ | Atlanta, GA | United States (distributed) |
Choose RevPartners if…
- You want a firm that HubSpot itself lists and recommends. The Elite badge carries weight, and they hold it.
- You need a large migration into HubSpot from Salesforce, Marketo, or Pipedrive, run by a team that does them every week.
- You want outbound motion bundled with the ops work under one contract.
Choose Aptitude 8 if…
- You want the partner HubSpot itself invested in. They are the first firm in the HubSpot Ventures portfolio, which is about as strong as the badge gets.
- You are an enterprise whose procurement wants a large certified partner with formal project structure behind it.
- You want implementation only, with no marketing services attached. They keep that line clean.
04 / The third option
Or maybe you don’t need an agency at all.
Both firms above sell a team. If what you need is the RevOps function itself, one senior person who owns pipeline design, routing, data, and reporting inside whatever stack you already run, that’s a different purchase. Published: $2,500-$20k/mo by tier, and most fractional engagements land at the $10k end. $1,200 two-week audit, credited to month one. Kevin owns the account start to finish. There is no handoff after the sales call.
