How we would actually choose

Choose Zapier when speed to a working integration, with almost every SaaS tool already supported is the property your workload depends on, and accept that per-task pricing gets expensive at volume, and data passes through a third party.

Choose HubSpot when fast to deploy with marketing and sales genuinely joined up matters more, accepting that less customisable than Salesforce once processes get unusual.

In practice most production systems we build use both, routed by task. Standardising on one option for tidiness usually costs more than the tidiness is worth.
