Hi everyone, new here! 👋 Been looking at tools like HubSpot and Marketo for our small team. The features are amazing, but the monthly subscriptions seem really high for our budget.

Is there a way to get solid marketing automation—think email sequences, basic lead scoring, and maybe a form—without a recurring fee? Maybe a one-time purchase tool, or even a robust open-source platform? Or is the subscription model just the standard for this category now? Curious about your experiences.
