HubWho vs Service Provider Pro: honest comparison
HubWho vs Service Provider Pro — both target marketing agencies that bill recurring clients, but they serve very different sides of that audience.

Quick verdict
If you bill recurring clients and need real per-client margin, HubWho is the right call. Service Provider Pro handles billing as one of many features, while HubWho is purpose-built for the per-client margin tracking and recurring retainer flow agencies actually need.

HubWho vs Service Provider Pro: FAQs
Why pick HubWho over Service Provider Pro for an agency?
HubWho's per-client margin tracking (your cost vs your bill) is the headline differentiator. Service Provider Pro can handle it manually, but HubWho automates it.
How does HubWho track margin without a spreadsheet?
You set your wholesale cost on each service once. HubWho stores it next to what you bill, so per-client margin is calculated on demand from your real invoices. No monthly spreadsheet reconciliation.
Can I migrate active retainers from Service Provider Pro without disrupting billing?
Yes. The HubWho onboarding team handles the migration during a cutover window so no client invoices are dropped or duplicated.
What payment methods does HubWho support?
Card, Apple Pay, and ACH via Plaid bank-link. Multi-currency invoicing for international agency clients.
