As of 2023, 86% of businesses use video as a marketing tool, up from 63% in 2017.
Most businesses that use video in sales and marketing use it to post content on social media, send personalized sales-related videos to their customers, or for internal communication.
Every year, marketers increase their budget for video sales and marketing by 25%; if you’re not using videos for marketing, you might be leaving a lot of money on the table.
But which video platform should you use for marketing and communication?
In this article, we will talk about the two video communication and marketing platforms – Dubb and BombBomb.
We will compare the features both tools offer, their pricing, what existing users say, and more.
By the end of the article, you will be able to decide which of the two tools is right for you whilst also giving you a third alternative option that might fit your use case better.
If you find that neither of these tools suits your needs perfectly, check out our lists of the best Dubb alternatives and BombBomb alternatives.
Dubb is a video sales system that offers business users a platform to send personalized, trackable videos.
Whereas BombBomb is used by business professionals to build and nurture customer relationships.
Both tools offer features to personalize your videos, share them via links, and offer various integrations.
Let's start by looking at what the market says about both tools.
Dubb has 538 reviews on G2, with an average star rating of 4.6 / 5.
BombBomb has 561 reviews on G2, with an average star rating of 4.7 / 5.
You can’t completely rely on G2 to decide which one is better. That’s because not everyone who uses the product leaves a review on G2.
Let's evaluate both tools independently and decide which one is best for you.
Here are the eight unique features that we will analyze and compare:
Let’s dive in.
Dubb lets you record 1:1 videos in three ways:
The second and third options let you record your screen and webcam together, whereas Dubb’s dashboard lets you record either the webcam or your screen in a video (one at a time).
Along with video recording, Dubb offers features like:
Like Dubb, BombBomb also has three methods for recording videos: its online dashboard, offline app, and Google Chrome extension.
But it only lets you record videos that have both a webcam and screen if you download its app.
Here are the features BombBomb offers:
🏆 Winner: Dubb, based on the comprehensive features it offers for 1:1 recording like in-depth analytics, AI-use cases, password protection, etc.
Dubb integrates with 105 third-party applications like – Gmail, ActiveCampaign, Shopify, and more.
Most of these integrations fall under categories like:
BombBomb has more integrations than Dubb. It integrates with apps in multiple industries, from CRM to content to MarTech.
BombBomb integrates with apps in 15 different categories, while Dubb integrates with apps in 7 different categories.
Dubb misses out on integration with tools in categories like customer service, recruiting, finance, and more. Videos in such categories are an important means of communication in such categories and therefore, BombBomb offers integrations in these categories.
🏆 Winner: BombBomb, based on the sheer number of integrations across industries.
In case you face an issue while creating videos with Dubb, it lets you contact its support team in 4 ways:
BombBomb offers 4 sources of customer support:
Both Dubb and BombBomb offer enough channels for customer support and are quick to resolve queries.
🏆 Winner: It's a tie.
Dubb’s insights and analytics are comprehensive, but you can’t access them during your free trial.
With any of the plans you choose with Dubb, you get the following insights:
BombBomb’s insights and analytics are comprehensive but not as much as those of Dubb’s. Here are the KPIs it tracks:
🏆 Winner: Dubb, based on the comprehensiveness of insights and analytics offered.
Dubb uses AI in its platform as an Interactive reaction assistant (IRA). It’s a writing assistant that leverages AI to help you become a better writer.
You can select a specific type of writing application – a blog post, social media caption, email copy, or YouTube video script and then select the topic, industry, and tone.
After you click on Submit, the Dubb AI generates content as per your requirements.
Another use case where Dubb uses AI is one of its features called Caira.
Dubb Caira is an AI-driven, real-time feedback assistant that helps you improve communication delivery, clarity, empathy, and professionalism.
It’s basically used to analyze and improve videos you create.
Both these features are only available to you once you sign up for Dubb’s paid plan.
If we talk about BombBomb, it doesn’t have built-in AI features. To use AI with BombBomb, you must integrate it with third-party apps like Zapier or Pabbly.
🏆 Winner: Dubb, based on the AI features that help you create content and analyze videos.
Both Dubb and BombBomb offer good functionality for recording videos, sharing them, and tracking insights, but both lack the feature of creating videos at scale.
Creating personalized videos at scale becomes essential, especially in certain use cases, such as sales, where video prospecting is effective but requires time, personalization, and effort.
That’s where a tool like Sendspark can help.
The problem with Dubb and BombBomb is that for every video you want to create, you have to start from scratch. There’s no way to leverage already created videos to scale to more people.
This process is often less scalable and time-consuming.
If you want to reduce your sales cycle time and convert more leads, use a tool like Sendspark.
The platform comes with dynamic videos, which allow you to send personalized videos at scale (more on this later).
Pricing is one of the most important factors when deciding which video communication software to choose.
Dubb offers a free forever plan and two other paid plans to choose from.
The Starter plan gives you access to 10 GB storage / 100 SD videos, a mobile app, a Chrome extension, an Outlook and Gmail add-on, LinkedIn reporting, and basic video insights.
It’s a very basic plan just to test the waters. With the Starter plan, you can’t do your own branding, track videos comprehensively, or use AI in the process.
Apart from everything in the Starter plan, the Pro plan gives you access to several premium features:
The Pro Plus plan offers everything in the Pro plan, along with:
BombBomb gives you a 14-day free trial, after which you have to subscribe to one of its paid plans.
Here are the features you get with the Essentials plan:
The Plus plan gives you everything in the Essentials plan, along with:
Along with all the Plus plan’s features, Team gives you access to:
To know the Teams plan pricing, contact BombBomb’s sales team.
When it comes to pricing, BombBomb is more affordable than Dubb. But the features Dubb offers are far superior. Dubb also comes with a free forever plan that helps you create ~100 SD quality videos.
🏆 Winner: Dubb, based on its features and free plan.

A reviewer from G2 recently said:
“Dubb is a great way to get attention when you're selling over the internet while also making things way more personal with your prospects.
Sharing videos and getting notified when they are seen, getting reactions, and having calls to action are amazing.”
But Chaz B. thinks Dubb’s Android app can be improved significantly. He can’t seem to close the app properly every time he uses it.
“One of the best features is its seamless integration of video capabilities within the CRM, making communication more engaging and personalized.”
But Key thinks there’s a learning curve for the tool, and beginners might have to spend time learning what each feature on the dashboard does.
Rob R. thinks that: “BombBomb is fantastic in allowing me to distribute video to large numbers of people in an easy, professional, graphically pleasing format. The support team at BombBomb is always helpful and answers my questions or handles my issues quickly.”
“Love it. This is the Best Tool to get customer Engagement. - Top of the Class. Have been using this for over 8 years. More so in the last 5 yrs - probably around 3 - 5 times a day.”
But the reviewer – Karen S., also said that their done-for-you templates aren’t great.
Dubb and BombBomb are both amazing tools for sending videos to the masses and analyzing videos comprehensively.
Dubb offers a generous free forever plan, gives you vital, in-depth insights for videos, and lets you run email and SMS campaigns.
BombBomb, on the other hand, integrates flawlessly with your CRM and gives you an amazing customer support experience to resolve queries quickly.
But when you want to do prospecting at scale and create hundreds of personalized videos quickly, neither Dubb nor BombBomb is the right platform.
For such a use case, Sendspark is the perfect solution.
Sendspark lets prospects generate personalized videos at scale.
The platform has built-in AI features to help you with personalization, such as:
