HubSpot Marketing Hub Reviews

I use it to monitor leads and engage in sales automation processes. We use it to identify certain leads or potential clients, and we use it to maintain contact with them, post-sale.

The most valuable feature is probably automating the system. I can send mass emails to pretty much all my contacts or certain ones that meet the demographic requirements. I've used this one and one other CRM with an auto sales company. From my experience, just the ease of use and the user interface on HubSpot is phenomenal. It's really simple and easy to navigate the program. The functionality is phenomenal, and not just the Microsoft Office part but also with LinkedIn Sales Navigator. It's pretty nice.

The upcoming tasks feature could be better. With HubSpot, whenever I put the contact information into Microsoft Office or Microsoft Outlook, it automatically inputs it into HubSpot. For example, it keeps telling me to contact my Solaris representative as an upcoming task. I've tried changing the contact in it to "not a lead," but it keeps sending me that notification.

I have been dealing with HubSpot Marketing Hub for about four months.

It has been pretty stable. I haven't had that many issues with this.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give HubSpot Marketing Hub a nine.

The solution helps me to structure and track marketing and sales emails. It allows me to know when a person has opened them and if they have been disseminated. 

The solution does not enable one to know with certainty if another opened an email he had sent. It may, in fact, be the organization itself that has automatically opened the email and not its recipient. As such, this capability is not a reliable metric. 

I have been dealing with HubSpot Marketing Hub for around six months.

I consider the solution to be stable. 

I have not had any dealings with technical support. 

The initial setup was pretty straightforward. 

As I employ a corporate license, I cannot say for certain how much it would cost on an individual basis. I believe it amounts to $50 per month.

I rate HubSpot Marketing Hub as an eight out of ten. 

I use HubSpot for lead management, funnel management, and marketing.

The most valuable features are the reports, overall usability, and ease of use.

Being able to send emails from within it, and the email campaigns are good features.

It is very flexible.

When using this product, improvements often have to be made at the corporate level, such as improving their overall best practices. The reason for this is the flexibility that the solution provides. For example, when different people are talking about a certain sales stage, there should be certain qualifications. One person might refer to a deal at the commit stage, whereas another one considers it to be at the qualification stage.

Although the interface is good, it is not very intuitive. I usually have to go to the admin to look for help with certain functions. The search and questions aren't as intuitive as I would expect from a platform like this. However, it may just be me getting up to speed with it.

I have been using HubSpot Marketing Hub since I joined this company, several months ago.

Stability-wise, this is a good product.

As far as I know, the scalability is good. We have perhaps 30 users in the company.

I have not been in touch with technical support.

I have used Salesforce for close to 20 years, and it's fairly similar, but there are some little idiosyncrasies that differentiate them.

My advice for anybody who is implementing HubSpot is to have corporate best practices defined, or at least evolving in parallel with the implementation and bringing on new users. You want to make sure that everyone is using it the same way.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We use this solution as a central marketing automation tool, integrated with SFDC CRM. We are also using HubSpot CMS but will be moving off of this soon.

HubSpot has been very useful for a startup when we didn't have marketing ops expertise. It provides basic email automation tools, leads capture/scoring, and integrates with SFDC.  

Their blog platform and form capabilities are very easy to use and integrate within our web site.

API capabilities (including the performance) are minimal and the email workflow capabilities are too rigid, which results in very complicated workflow management.

We use it as a CRM and as a CMS.

It saves a lot of time. 

• Marketing module
• Contacts
• Reports.  

Analytics system could be better.

• Helping to create client websites
• Adding content
• Minor template tweaks
• Custom website and landing pages
• Blogs
• Templates
• Widgets
• Workflows
• Email

• Overall speed and ease of use.
• Sandbox environment allows for real-time examples to test and share with clients on the environment. 
• It allows us to shine with a deep understanding of the platform.
  

• Sandbox environment: Provides a great way to test new templates and create content in the environment, then share it with the client for real-time evaluation.
• Great file manager: Easy to work with, edit images, and organize files. 
• Design Manager: Ease of editing and creating templates after initial development.
• HubDB: Great for modules, tables, resources and beautiful dynamic pages

HubSpot is constantly working to improve and innovate. A downside to this is that sometimes it can be disorienting when they put out a new release/beta test without informing us. It can be a bit disorienting to have to figure out how to access and adjust things in a new layout unexpectedly. 

Customer support is helpful and responsive. 

Sales enablement, where it has been hard to manage leads and forgetting following up with clients, as we manage multiple geographies and managing data in a worksheet can be hard. 

It has eased managing the sales team and the sales journey right from setting up appointments. The best thing is the ease to customize per our needs. 

• Deals and closing
• Task reminders
• Call logs

We can choose the necessary stages as per the lead, and update it accordingly, then proceed it further.

They should integrate a bot, as it would be easier to get the status to the management team without logging into the CRM to get all the required details. I would recommend trying to use ElliQ, which is an excellent smart bot that can be used for automation.

I use HubSpot to aggregate all of my content, create calls to action and landing pages, to generate leads for my consulting practice. As a research analyst and marketing strategist, I use HubSpot to disseminate my content across my social media channels and to keep me up to date on comments so I can respond in a timely manner.

Collected all of our digital content and allowed us to repurpose and share with other relevant content over time. Able to put together lead nurturing programs based on personas to move MQLs to SQLs and trials to customers.

I am able to continue to share information of value with several different personas depending on the content I am sharing.

Content management and dissemination since we are always creating more content. Lead management and nurturing customized for target personas.

I am not in a position to afford the CRM at this point. I would like to get to a point where I can justify using it.

No.

I have not.

No, I have not found a solution that meets my needs better than HubSpot.

Very straightforward and CSRs were very helpful any time I have a question.

I implemented the solution myself.

Undetermined at this point.

Take the 30-day free trial with HubSpot and any other vendor. Some marketing automation solutions are better for lead scoring and lead management, but I have not found a better solution for someone using content marketing as their primary lead generation strategy.

Easy to use. Great customer support.
