The best ABM platforms in 2026

From enterprise suites to tools with a price on the page.

An ABM (account-based marketing) platform picks the companies most likely to buy, shows you when they are researching, and helps marketing and sales reach the right people inside them. Short answer: Demandbase is the best all-round platform, 6sense the best for intent data, HubSpot Marketing Hub the best if you already run HubSpot, and N.Rich or Factors.ai the best when you need a price before the first call.

We compared 14 tools named in the top Google results for "ABM platforms" and ranked 8 of them. Terminus, a classic of older lists, now redirects to DemandScience's managed service.

How we compared and scored

We started from the tools the top 10 Google results for "ABM platforms" name in their headings, added tools that publish a price, and set aside tools that only cover one piece of ABM (data, gifting, website personalization). Each platform gets five scores out of 5, weighted toward what an ABM platform is bought for: account data and intent (30%) and activation (25%), then setup effort, price transparency and fit for mid-market budgets (15% each).

Best all-round ABM platform

Demandbase

4.3/5

Demandbase is one of the two names every ABM shortlist starts with. It reads intent signals, website visits and buying group activity, scores accounts, then runs its own B2B advertising platform (display, video, CTV, social) so you can reach the accounts that are in market. Sales sees the same scores inside the CRM.

Pricing is a custom quote: the pricing page is a form. Demandbase explains the model there: a platform fee that covers the software and services, plus a flat fee per user. Ask for both lines, and for the ad media budget on a third.

Standout features
  • Own B2B ad platform
  • Buying group view
  • Sales and marketing on one score
  • ISO 27001 and SOC 2
+Pros
  • ✓Advertising built in
  • ✓Easier to roll out than most enterprise suites
  • ✓Strong CRM sync
−Cons
  • ✗Custom quote: platform fee plus a fee per user
  • ✗Needs a team to run it
  • ✗Overkill for a few hundred target accounts
Verdict

Pick Demandbase if advertising to target accounts is the core of your ABM. Ask for the ad media budget and the platform fee as two separate lines.

Best for intent data and predictive scoring

6sense

4.2/5

6sense is known for its predictive models: it tells you which accounts are researching your category and at which stage. You start from one of three entry packages (Revenue Marketing for marketers, Sales Intelligence for sellers, 6sense Intelligence for data teams) and add modules on top, such as AI email agents, extra credits or a Bombora topic pack.

Every package is "Get a quote". Credits are priced by volume band, so ask early how many credits your sales team will burn in a year.

Standout features
  • Predictive buying stages
  • Three entry packages
  • Bombora topic pack as an add-on
  • MCP server for AI agents
+Pros
  • ✓Very deep account intelligence
  • ✓Sales and marketing packages
  • ✓Rich add-ons
−Cons
  • ✗Custom quote
  • ✗Credits priced by volume
  • ✗Setup takes a dedicated owner
Verdict

The pick when intent data is the reason you buy. Compare its quote with Demandbase's on the same number of accounts and seats.

Best ABM inside your CRM

HubSpot Marketing Hub

4.2/5

HubSpot has ABM tools inside its CRM: target accounts, buying roles, ideal customer profile tiers, an ABM dashboard and account reports. Marketing and sales see the same target accounts index page. The ABM tools come with Marketing Hub Professional, which starts at $800 a month on an annual commitment ($890 paying monthly) with 3 core seats, plus a required one-time Professional onboarding of $3,000. Enterprise, from $3,600 a month with 5 core seats plus $7,000 of onboarding, adds multi-touch revenue attribution, lookalike segments and customer journey analytics.

Its strength: the full price sits on the pricing page, and your team already knows the interface. One catch: opening the Account overview of a target account takes an assigned Sales Hub Professional or Enterprise seat.

Standout features
  • Inside the CRM
  • Target accounts index
  • Price published
  • ABM from the Professional tier
+Pros
  • ✓No second platform to learn
  • ✓Price you can budget
  • ✓Account reports tied to deals
−Cons
  • ✗$3,000 onboarding on top ($7,000 on Enterprise)
  • ✗Less third-party intent
  • ✗Seat cost grows with the team
Verdict

The sensible first step for a HubSpot customer: Professional's first year comes to $12,600 with onboarding, Enterprise's to $50,200. Our full HubSpot review covers the rest of the suite.

Best published price for a full ABM platform

N.Rich

4.2/5

N.Rich is a full ABM platform with its prices on the page. GTM Scale costs $2,960 a month billed annually ($35,520 a year) with 25 intent topics, four ad formats, LinkedIn audience sync and unlimited users. GTM Command, at $4,770 a month billed annually, adds 50 intent topics, custom CRM fields and single sign-on.

Its ad model differs from the rest: you pay when target accounts engage, not per impression, and unspent prepaid ad budget rolls over.

Standout features
  • Price published
  • Pay on engagement
  • Unlimited users
  • HubSpot and Salesforce sync
+Pros
  • ✓Budget known upfront
  • ✓No per-seat bill
  • ✓Ad spend rolls over
−Cons
  • ✗Annual license only
  • ✗Ad spend is extra
  • ✗Smaller brand in the US
Verdict

The best way to get a full ABM platform at a known price. Every plan is an annual license: there is no monthly plan.

Best entry price and LinkedIn attribution

Factors.ai

4.2/5

Factors.ai starts as account identification: which companies visit your site and what they read. Lite costs $199 a month after a free trial. Basic is $6K per year, Growth $20K per year and Enterprise from $36K per year, adding account scoring, LinkedIn and Google audience syncs and mixed first, second and third party intent.

Contracts are usually annual; quarterly plans exist on request for early-stage startups.

Standout features
  • Lite at $199/mo
  • LinkedIn ad influence
  • Free trial
  • Startup discounts
+Pros
  • ✓Lite at $199/mo
  • ✓Fast setup
  • ✓Clear plans
−Cons
  • ✗Ads go through LinkedIn and Google audience syncs
  • ✗Annual contracts above Lite
  • ✗Lighter intent than 6sense
Verdict

Start here if you are not sure ABM pays yet: $2,388 a year for Lite tells you which accounts are already looking.

Best for mid-market teams with one ABM owner

AdRoll ABM

4.1/5

AdRoll ABM is the platform formerly known as RollWorks. It builds your ideal customer profile from 2.6 billion digital identities and 92 million contacts, flags accounts showing buying signals, and runs ads across websites, apps, social media and streaming services. Its Command Center recommends the next step: add records to the CRM, build lists, alert sales.

On the AdRoll pricing page, the three ABM packages (Account-Based Advertising, Account-Based Marketing, and the two combined) show no price and lead to a demo request. A fourth, Account-Based Retargeting, has no fee to get started: you pay only for media.

Standout features
  • Formerly RollWorks
  • Multi-channel ads
  • Command Center
  • Mid-market focus
+Pros
  • ✓Quicker to run with a small team
  • ✓Strong advertising
  • ✓Good review scores
−Cons
  • ✗Custom quote on the full ABM packages
  • ✗Less depth than 6sense on intent
  • ✗Name change can confuse older docs
Verdict

The pick if one person runs ABM. Search for RollWorks too when you read reviews: most of them predate the new name.

Best for contact-level ads

Influ2

3.8/5

Influ2 runs ABM at the person level: ads shown to named contacts in your target accounts, with reporting on who saw and clicked. Sales gets a name, not just a company. It is CCPA and GDPR compliant, ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 Type II attested.

Pricing is a custom quote: you start with a call.

Standout features
  • Contact-level ads
  • Named engagement
  • ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II
+Pros
  • ✓Sales knows who engaged
  • ✓Strong for long sales cycles
  • ✓Revenue reporting in the CRM
−Cons
  • ✗Needs clean contact lists
  • ✗Narrower than full suites
Verdict

A strong second tool next to your CRM when your reps sell to named people.

Best for paid campaign execution

Metadata.io

3.7/5

Metadata.io is campaign execution first: it builds audiences, generates landing pages and creatives, and runs and optimizes campaigns across 12 channels. Price depends on the channels you hand over, the ad spend it manages and how much of the work you delegate.

Standout features
  • 12 channels
  • Creatives and landing pages
  • Budget and bid optimization
+Pros
  • ✓Saves paid media hours
  • ✓Pipeline reporting
  • ✓Works from ChatGPT or iPhone too
−Cons
  • ✗Custom quote tied to spend
  • ✗Less account intelligence
  • ✗Best with a real paid budget
Verdict

Pick it when your ABM is mostly paid social and your team lacks hands to run it.

How to choose

How to pick your ABM platform

Start with the size of your target list and who will run the tool every week.

Under 300 target accounts, one marketer

Your CRM plus account identification is enough to start. HubSpot customers can switch on the ABM tools of Marketing Hub Professional; others can try Factors.ai Lite for a quarter. See our CRM picks for SaaS.

A few thousand accounts and a paid budget

N.Rich or AdRoll ABM: account-based ads, intent and CRM sync without an enterprise rollout. Pair with a clean data source, see our B2B prospecting picks.

Enterprise, several regions, an ops team

Shortlist Demandbase and 6sense and make them quote on the same scope. Compare the data with Apollo and ZoomInfo if sales also needs contacts.

  • Count your target accounts before the first demo: every quote depends on it.
  • Ask for the platform fee and the media budget as two separate lines.
  • Ask what a 90-day pilot includes and whether it converts to the yearly contract.
  • Check how the tool syncs with your CRM: fields, objects, and who owns the sync.
  • Name the person who will run the tool every week.
Tips

Pay less and get more from ABM

Small moves from pricing pages and buyer forums.

01

Get two enterprise quotes on the same scope

Demandbase and 6sense both quote on demand. Send both the same number of accounts, seats and credits: buyers on forums report gaps of tens of thousands of dollars for similar scopes.

02

Count HubSpot's onboarding in year one

Marketing Hub Professional at $800 a month on an annual commitment is $9,600 a year, and the required $3,000 onboarding brings the first year to $12,600. Enterprise at $3,600 a month is $43,200 a year, $50,200 with its $7,000 onboarding. The ABM tools are already in Professional: move up for multi-touch revenue attribution, not for ABM.

03

Read N.Rich's monthly price as a yearly one

The $2,960 a month of GTM Scale is a yearly license: $35,520 paid for the year. Unspent prepaid ad budget rolls over, so you can start with a small ad pack.

04

Run identification before buying intent

Factors.ai Lite at $199 a month ($2,388 a year) shows which companies already visit your site. If that list is short, an intent data contract will not fix it.

05

Search RollWorks too

AdRoll ABM was called RollWorks; most reviews and integration docs still use the old name.

06

Keep ABM tools next to your stack

Most of these platforms push audiences to LinkedIn and Google and scores to your CRM. Automate the hand-off to sales with your automation platform or our Clay review for enrichment.

FAQ · 7 questions

ABM platforms · FAQ

  • How much does an ABM platform cost?
    Most cost a five or six figure yearly contract, and only three vendors here publish a price. HubSpot Marketing Hub Professional, which includes the ABM tools, starts at $800 a month on an annual commitment plus $3,000 of onboarding, N.Rich at $2,960 a month billed annually, Factors.ai at $199 a month for Lite. Demandbase, 6sense, Influ2, Metadata.io and the full AdRoll ABM packages quote on demand. Ask whether ad media is part of the fee: N.Rich, for one, sells ad spend in prepaid packs.
  • Is ABM worth it for a small B2B company?
    Yes if you sell high-value deals to a short list of accounts, no if you sell cheap plans to thousands of small buyers. With fewer than a few hundred target accounts, start with your CRM (HubSpot) or an account identification tool (Factors.ai Lite) before an enterprise platform.
  • What is the difference between 6sense and Demandbase?
    6sense leads on predictive intent and buying stages; Demandbase leads on its own B2B advertising platform and is often described as easier to roll out. Both quote on demand. Ask both for a price on the same number of accounts, seats and credits, and for the media budget as a separate line.
  • What happened to RollWorks and Terminus?
    RollWorks is now sold as AdRoll ABM, the same platform under its parent brand. Terminus now redirects to DemandScience, which sells managed programs (content syndication, programmatic ads) and says "No software to buy" instead of a self-serve platform license.
  • Do I need intent data for ABM?
    Not on day one. Your own signals (site visits, email clicks, open deals) already tell you a lot. Third-party intent, such as the Bombora topics 6sense sells as an add-on, helps when you want to find accounts researching your category before they reach your site.
  • Can HubSpot do account-based marketing?
    Yes. Marketing Hub has target accounts, buying roles and account reports, from the Professional tier of Marketing Hub or Sales Hub. It lacks the large third-party intent graph and ad platforms of Demandbase or 6sense, so many teams pair it with a tool such as N.Rich or Factors.ai.
  • How long does it take to see results from an ABM platform?
    Expect a quarter before pipeline numbers mean anything: the first weeks go to account lists, CRM sync and audiences. Ask each vendor what a 90-day pilot includes before you sign a full year.
