Most Hibu customers we talk to recognize at least three of these. One is usually enough reason to start planning an exit.
Hibu has raised your monthly price more than once. You don't know what you're paying for and you don't see corresponding value.
Conversations, recordings, and contact history live in Hibu's portal. You can't export it cleanly, you can't analyze it, you can't reuse it.
Hibu has no public API. You can't pipe call recordings into your CRM, push leads to Slack, or run analytics on your own conversations.
Auto-renewal, 60-day notice windows, early-termination fees. You missed a window once and got rolled into another year.
You've had your business number for years. You'd switch tomorrow if you knew the port wouldn't go sideways.
You'd rather pay ~$100/mo for VOIP + an open-source CRM + a contact form on your own domain — and write your own insightful blog posts for SEO — than $3,000/mo for someone else's portal and a stack of link-farm directories.
What our solution gives you in place of Hibu — and what changes for you. Every component is a commodity tool you can hire any developer to run. No vendor lock-in.

Three steps: (1) export your data so nothing is lost, (2) terminate your Hibu contract in line with its notice and auto-renewal clauses, (3) cut over to a replacement stack so calls, SMS, and form leads keep flowing. We do all three for you under one engagement — or just the export if you want to keep your contract intact while you decide.
Yes. Hibu does not offer a clean self-serve export, but the data is reachable through their internal API. We pull every conversation, phone call recording, transcript, SMS, and web-form submission and deliver it as a JSON archive plus an indexed CSV. Typical turnaround is 5 business days.
Not publicly. Hibu's customer-facing platform has no documented API, no webhooks, and no integration surface — which is the single biggest complaint we hear. Our export pulls data through the same internal endpoints Hibu's own portal uses, then hands it to you as JSON so you can wire it into anything that speaks HTTP.
Hibu agreements usually have a 30 to 60 day notice window before an auto-renewal date, plus an early-termination fee if you exit mid-term. The free Contract Audit reads your specific agreement, calculates exit cost, and identifies the next clean termination window — usually before you commit any money to a migration.
Hibu bundles two very different things: a SaaS layer (VOIP, contact form, CRM, $500/mo) and an SEO program ($2,500/mo). Our solution for the SaaS layer: a modern VOIP/SMS provider (pay-as-you-go), a self-hosted contact form on your domain, and an open-source CRM/inbox — together $80 to $150 per month. For SEO: skip the agency. Write blog posts yourself on your own domain — it costs nothing, the links compound on your domain instead of on Hibu-owned subdirectories, and a single well-targeted post per month is typically more effective than Hibu's $2,500/mo directory-link program.
No. Phone numbers are portable by law (FCC). We port your existing Hibu-hosted number to a VOIP provider you control with zero ringing downtime. The port itself takes 7 – 21 business days depending on Hibu's release speed; we run the new and old numbers in parallel during the transition.
Five business days for the data export. A full migration (export + replacement stack + number port + cutover) typically takes 2 – 4 weeks, mostly waiting on the number port. You can sign up for service today and start receiving calls on the new stack before the port completes.
Free for the contract audit. $1,000 one-time for the data export. $3,000 one-time for the full migration — and SEO costs nothing if you write your own blog posts on your domain. Most customers we work with were paying Hibu around $3,000/mo all-in ($500 SaaS + $2,500 SEO). At ~$80–$150/mo all-in for the SaaS layer, you save roughly $2,850 every month — the migration pays for itself inside the first month and keeps saving from there.
Hibu builds links on Hibu-owned subdirectories and partner directories rather than on your domain. The practical consequence: when your contract ends, that link equity stays with Hibu — it does not transfer to your domain. Our approach is the opposite: keyword research grounded in your customers' actual search intent, content produced on your domain, and link earning that compounds in your favor regardless of who runs it for you.
Most of what Hibu calls 'your SEO' lives on infrastructure they control — Hibu subdomains, partner directories, GMB profiles claimed under their email. We audit what's actually attributable to your own domain vs. theirs during the contract audit, then migrate ownership of what we can (GMB, GSC, GA4) and rebuild the rest on your domain so future SEO compounds in YOUR favor.
