Charles Dickens - PeerSpot reviewer
Effortlessly manage relationships with seamless contact data integration
The primary area to improve is creating deployable packages. When I buy into HubSpot, I have a list of checks, however, I am left to figure out how to use it. I start with a budget, and it's just a persistent sales demand. HubSpot should establish some pre-deployable packages that, when contracted, offer basic functionality. It is important to be clear about what it doesn't provide or what else is needed. I can outfit myself with my own tools or other options as I evaluate the board. They are building businesses for themselves. However, there's always a limiting function encountered. Understanding limitations upon entry would be beneficial so I don't constantly stumble upon unknown constraints. A package covering everything in a particular area without requiring the entire purchase would be excellent.
Luis Teran - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable with very good social media integration and easy to use
The deployment is a bit harder as you sometimes need help. For us, we have experience. It is not so hard, however, we have a dependency on the operative system, such as Microsoft with Windows Server 2019 or 2016. You must get that kind of system. Also, you need to get this updated and you have many dependencies that you have to work with. The deployment is easy, however, when you want to get the IDR or you want to get the integrations as you want them, you need to deal with so many dependencies with other platforms that it can get hard. That's what's hard with the solution. The solution itself is, of course, it's easy for us, for an engineer, however, for untrained people, that is hard. For the deployment, if the contact center is a large contact center, you must get four engineers or five engineers to do the deployment. Most of them will make the integration and the others will configure the IDR. Another will deploy the integration, and that's all. Of course, then, there will be the documentation you need to deal with.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation."
"HubSpot CRM's most valuable features are that it is straightforward and it gives us most of the things that we need and it is easy to onboard with it. You don't need specific integrations with IT, which is very good. The learning curve for HubSpot CRM is quite easy."
"The best feature in HubSpot CRM for us is the custom objects that we integrated. This allows us to include more information on the contact profile, company profile, and other details, making it easier for our staff to have all the necessary information before contacting our customers.Additionally, having all this information in a centralized place is highly beneficial for us."
"It is quite customizable if I know what I am doing."
"We can track clients through the system, which is a great feature. It supports cross-functional teams."
"The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation."
"HubSpot's customer service is excellent and fast."
"I like how you can track one account from marketing to closing the deal. For example, suppose you generated a lead through marketing, you can then track it through to when the deal is closed."
"The social media integration is excellent."
"Interactive Intelligence is quite user friendly."
 

Cons

"The initial setup could be faster as it currently takes a lot of time."
"The mobile application for HubSpot CRM could improve. There are a lot of weaknesses and limitations. Salesforce.com's mobile application is much better."
"HubSpot CRM could improve by reducing the price."
"There is no option to remove duplicate constant contacts."
"The only problem with HubSpot at the moment is the pricing models."
"An area to be improved in HubSpot CRM is its customization capabilities."
"I believe it's tailored for companies that are well-lined up for inbound sales. They have rich content, and they can generate leads and capture leads on all the channels and websites, but if you are focusing on or depending on outbounds, it lacks the capabilities that are being offered by companies that focus on outreach, such as Salesloft or Outreach. It mainly lacks cadences for salespeople."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. The pricing strategy that they have is way too clever."
"The initial setup can be a bit difficult."
"The problem with this current system is that the support is not great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of HubSpot CRM is less than the cost of Freshsales."
"There is a cost for the solution. However, I am not aware of the price."
"HubSpot CRM is affordable."
"The price of the solution could improve because it is expensive."
"HubSpot CRM has a free version, which is why small companies prefer it. The paid version of this software needs to be priced better."
"The pricing is in a midrange if you line up the marketing tools."
"There are a few licensing payment models, such as annual or monthly. The solution is modular, which means that if you need a specific capability or function within the organization, you can purchase it specifically and you don't have to purchase something that is only utilized by 20 percent of the organization."
"The pricing is reasonable."
