What is DealHub?
DealHub positions itself as an "Agentic Quote-to-Revenue" platform, which in plain English means it handles everything from configuring a quote to collecting payment. Unlike traditional CPQ tools that stop at quote generation, DealHub extends into deal rooms (collaborative spaces for buyers), contract management, and subscription billing.
The platform has gained serious traction among B2B SaaS companies frustrated with Salesforce CPQ's complexity. DealHub's no-code approach lets RevOps teams make pricing changes without developer involvement—a massive win for companies iterating on their pricing models.
Core Capabilities

Native support for subscriptions, usage-based billing, multi-year ramps, and hybrid pricing. Integrates with ERP and finance systems.
Document Generation
Auto-generate branded proposals, quotes, and contracts. Merge fields pull from CRM data. Requires DocuSign or Adobe for e-signature.

Analytics & Insights
Track quote-to-close rates, discount trends, and deal velocity. Buyer engagement analytics from DealRoom interactions.
Pricing Reality Check
DealHub doesn't publish pricing, which is standard for enterprise CPQ tools. Based on market intel and user reports:
| Component | Typical Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Core CPQ | $50-75/user/month | Quote configuration, guided selling |
| DealRoom | $25-40/user/month | Often bundled with CPQ |
| Subscription Billing | $30-50/user/month | Add-on for billing automation |
| Implementation | $10K-50K | Depends on complexity |
Budget Reality: A 20-person sales team typically pays $30K-60K/year for DealHub. Implementation adds another $15K-30K upfront. Compare this to Salesforce CPQ at $75/user/month + $150K+ implementation for similar functionality.

What Users Actually Say
When DealHub Makes Sense
Our Verdict
DealHub is the best CPQ option for B2B SaaS companies that have outgrown spreadsheet-based quoting but don't want to commit to Salesforce CPQ's complexity and cost. The combination of no-code configuration, DealRoom, and subscription billing creates a complete quote-to-revenue workflow.
Ideal for:
- SaaS companies with subscription or usage-based pricing
- Teams sending 50+ proposals per month
- RevOps that wants to own pricing without engineering
- Multi-product companies with complex bundles
- Organizations needing deal room collaboration
Look elsewhere if:
- You have simple, flat-rate pricing (use PandaDoc)
- You're already deep in Salesforce ecosystem (evaluate SF CPQ)
- You need built-in e-signature (DocuSign integration required)
- You're a 5-person sales team (overkill)
Implementation Checklist
If you're evaluating DealHub, here's what to prepare:
- Document your pricing model - Every tier, bundle, discount rule, and approval threshold
- Map your quote workflow - Who touches a deal from opportunity to signed contract?
- Audit your CRM data - DealHub pulls from Salesforce/HubSpot; clean data = faster implementation
- Identify integration needs - DocuSign, Stripe, NetSuite, etc.
- Plan for training - Budget 2-4 hours per user for initial training
