My experience with HubSpot has been outstanding. It's a powerful platform for managing customer relationships, running marketing campaigns, and tracking results.
Pros
I love its all-in-one approach, combining CRM, email marketing, and automation tools.

This is a great CRM to use across a team. As a manager it is easy to track and see how the team is doing, KPI's can be tracked and recorded, but you can also see the small details of the effort of the team. The software is very intuitive, and easy for people to just make part of their daily routine. Helps to keep everyone on track and make sure that we are performing at our top capabilities.
Pros
HubSpot is really easy to implement and has the features that my team needs. We have been able to onboard multiple account managers, and make sure they get up to speed quickly. The CRM is very intuitive, and one account manager can leave information for another to make sure deals are always being closed.
Cons
It can be a little pricey on the monthly budget, but with the way it is used, it can be worth it.

A Nightmare in SaaS: HubSpot's Sales Trap and Operational Chaos
Reviewed on 28/06/2024
Choosing HubSpot over Salesforce was one of the biggest, most damning decisions I've ever made for...
Choosing HubSpot over Salesforce was one of the biggest, most damning decisions I've ever made for the growth of my company, Desygner, which boasts 40 million users. We initially moved to HubSpot due to a tempting 90% discount, but what seemed like a cost-saving choice turned into a nightmare that has plagued us for the past three years.
HubSpot's sales team is stellar at their job, perhaps the only good thing about them. Their ability to upsell and ensnare us into buying more and more was phenomenal. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. The product itself is a disaster.
Buggy is an understatement. Confusing is far too kind. I love software, but this product makes me want to rip my hair out every time I use it. It’s so problematic and unreliable that my sales team flat-out refuses to use it. Despite investing over $150,000, the real cost isn’t just financial—it’s the lost opportunities and the mess this bloated, dysfunctional system has brought to our operations.
HubSpot’s constant upsells are infuriating. To get anything reasonable done, you’re pressured into buying more features. The product is bloated, and I wouldn’t recommend it to any business, especially if you have more than a few employees. Even then, why bother?
After enduring this chaos for three years, it’s time to escape. HubSpot was supposed to help us grow, but instead, it’s been a massive hindrance. If you value your sanity and business growth, steer clear of this nightmare.

Hubspot CRM, has probably been the best CRM solution I've used to date. Its easy to set up, and although there are some annoyances with teir pricing/addons, the system itself is great for companies big and small. Ive mainly used in a startup and it was one of the best investments we made.
Pros
The systemnis really easy to set up, with a plethora of customisation that can be done. Creating views purely for your viewing, and seeing last interactions is key.
Cons
The level of addons is a littlw annoying. You get to grips with thensystem, realise you can do a little more and control thibs better, then you realise you need to buy an addon. Its a teir business model, but can be annoying when youre first getting to grips with the system
Reasons for Switching to HubSpot CRM
The pricing structure, free levels and ease of set up and use were thjngs that clearly set this apart. As a startup, there wasnt much knowlege/experience with CRM solutions so finding something that could cope with swift and easy onboarding was key.- Industry: Insurance

It was mind blowing when I first started using HubSpot. In the beginning, I felt overwhelmed because there are many buttons I have to explore but with the time, I am so grateful for getting benefits it provides.
Pros
Integration with Google email helps me keep emails with customers logged in the system and I don't have to manually drag and drop.
I also like its tasks to keep me organized my day-to-day work & follow-ups
Cons
Hubspot does not allow to have several phone numbers for one customer and only allow to have up to two email addresses for each customer. Some customers have multiple contact information and I wish there is a way integrate rather than multiple contact info for one customer.

Very good, the knowledgebase and academy is brilliant and we have also used a partner implementor that has helped us set up various aspects which is easy because its such a well known established product.
Pros
Hubspot runs our whole marketing function in the business, outbound marketing campaigns, prospect and customer lists, reporting, form submissions on the website.
As well as our sales flow from the lead scoring module, pipeline management, forecasting and the whole sales funnel.
Cons
The cost :) Its an expensive tool and if we want additional functionality it nearly always requires us to 'upgrade' our package.

It has been a positive experience overall. The ability to customize the stages of your deal workflow and customize the data logged for customers/deals/etc... is nice. Automated email reminders for tasks associated with customers and deals is also quite useful for our team.
Pros

Cons
It is bad about logging users out on the web app and the outlook extension. Some days have to login multiple times. Gets frustrating

HubSpot CRM is an exceptional CRM software as is cost effective and easy to use. While using other HubSpot apps is integrating seamless with them saving time so you can focus on customer relationships.

Cons
While free tier can help every business, for more functionalities the cost can increase rapidly.

Professional. The whole experience is very proper with the integration team that teaches you how to use the system. We love Hubspot, it is our main core of our business now. It is where we track everything, get reports, and see how we can further track our leads, customers, and improve sales.
Pros
Hubspot is an all-in-one type of system. It not only connects to basically all programs and apps that you operate on, but it is very customizable for any business structure. It is simple to use & gives structure to our entire company - marketing, sales, and customer support.
Cons
It was a bit trucky to set up at first, to migrate everything across from our previous CRM. You have to do some custom mapping of fields, and we lost some customer notes, but the support team was very patient & helpful.

My overall experience with HubSpot CRM has been positive. Despite the issues with documentation, the platform has significantly improved our customer relationship management and streamlined our sales and marketing processes. With a bit more focus on improving user guidance, HubSpot CRM could be an unbeatable tool in the CRM space.
Pros
What I liked most about HubSpot CRM is its all-in-one approach to managing sales, marketing, and customer service. The platform is intuitive and offers a wide range of features such as email tracking, lead scoring, and detailed analytics. The integration with other HubSpot tools and third-party applications is seamless, making it a versatile solution for businesses of all sizes.
Cons
What I liked least about HubSpot CRM is the poor documentation. It can be challenging to find detailed and up-to-date instructions or best practices for some of the more advanced features. It would be helpful to dedicate a team to review and maintain the documentation.

the company really needed a CRM system, as before we had none and the sales-pipeline follow-up was not centralized and controlled.
We also gave access to our distributros to allow them to work on their customers and make their sales follow-up.
Pros
What I like most about HubSpot CRM is its simplicity combined with powerful features. It's easy to set up and start to use right away, which makes it accessible for colleagues with little to no technical background. The visual sales pipeline is intuitive, allowing you to manage deals, track progress, and get a clear overview of sales activities at a glance.
It si easy to book meeting,s end pre-set emails, create tasks for others. Very very useful.
And I love the contact creation via the phone app. It is so easy and intelligent.
Cons
Eventhough you can set up quote templates and allows to set up the deals, it is not possible to set up a multi-step Quotation process flow that allows to select language, then select product, then subscription levels, service budget etc etc and at the end to have a quote ready to go.

Overall it's a great CRM compared to many that I've used in the past. It's very intuitive and has many research and knowledge base articles for suggestions and their team has been great to work with. The integrations are simple to set up and we've created streamlined lead gen from our other systems.
Pros
Hubspot is much more streamlined and easier to navigate after some of the recent dashboard updates than it was in it's previous legacy view. Some of the best things about hubspot are it's tiled deal summary, it's customizable reports and dashboards, and the ability to easily assign tasks and tag other users in the interface and on contacts, tasks, deals, and leads.
Cons
The outbound prospecting sequences are not optimized for true sales professionals. You do not have a way to sort by opens, clicks, or emails on the sequences, and have no export feature to reenroll or tag these leads to dive down deeper. If I'm targeting 100+ contacts per sequence, I do not have the time to manually review who opened the email to call, or reenroll into a new campaign based on the success or failure of the last one. This would be an amazing feature once added to really make prospecting better integrated with Hubspot.
