## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-10 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The honest caveat up front: most "best for agencies 2026" listicles that come back on this query are affiliate-driven (several ranked a mattress blog's post about marketing software, which tells you something). So below is ordered by what actually holds up in agency use, with sources where I verified pricing or features.

> ## The short answer by agency model
> 
> **1. GoHighLevel (HighLevel)** - the default if you want to resell software under your own brand. Agency plans: $97/mo (3 sub-accounts), $297/mo (unlimited sub-accounts + API), $497/mo for Agency Pro which unlocks SaaS Mode - full white-labeling, your own pricing tiers, your own billing. Nothing else lets a small agency turn a tool into recurring product revenue this cheaply. Trade-offs are real: it's a wide-but-shallow platform, email deliverability on the shared infrastructure needs managing, and you inherit support burden for every client you resell to.

> **2. HubSpot Marketing Hub + Solutions Partner Program** - the pick if you're a consulting/retainer agency serving mid-market and up. Best-in-cl
