Can I complete the excercises with the free trial of the HubSpot Marketing Software? Or do I need to pay?

Hi @samuelelstein,

Completing the marketing software certification does require access to the full suite of marketing tools. This requires a minimum of the marketing basic [subscription](https://www.hubspot.com/pricing/marketing?hubs_signup-url=www.hubspot.com/products/marketing&hubs_signup-cta=marketing-pricingright).

Thank you,  
Jenny

I think you can’t.

Kind regards
