Featured Reviews

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.

Has an easy-to-understand user interface
We started using LeadSquared's basic functions. Currently, we are using the solution's features, such as automation, reports, automated emails, and marketing sections, which have increased our efficiency. LeadSquared has helped streamline our marketing campaigns. We initially didn't have marketing strategies or a platform with landing pages, but this changed after we started using LeadSquared. LeadSquared is a SaaS based solution. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 most valuable feature of HubSpot CRM is the forms."
"The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation."
"We get a good overview of where everything is in the pipeline."
"HubSpot's customer service is excellent and fast."
"It was quite stable. I didn't notice any specific issues or downtime"
"When we cannot dedicate a lot of time to each of these, in terms of research and support, it helps us automate some small things and provides opportunities."
"HubSpot CRM has the most reliable and user-friendly options."
"LeadSquared's most valuable features are it comes equips with all the basic features of a CRM. It integrates well with our existing systems and is user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is the customization."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is an easy-to-understand user interface."
"The initial setup is very easy."
 

Cons

"This solution could be easier to use. You really have to be hands on in the beginning as its an in depth solution. It takes some time to learn how it works before you can start using it."
"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."
"Sometimes, the usability is not intuitive. There is a lot of work required to set it up the way I like."
"The initial setup could be faster as it currently takes a lot of time."
"I would need to try the product again to refresh my knowledge and give a recommendation."
"The product is not very scalable."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. The pricing strategy that they have is way too clever."
"HubSpot CRM is easy to use compared to others solutions and anyone can use it. However, for enterprise companies, I would recommend Salesforce because it has established partners, can be more reliable, has more features, and has a more powerful integration with ERP modules which is important for enterprise companies. For multi-locations and multinational companies, Salesforce is one of the best."
"The solution’s UI could be more user-friendly."
"The solution can get quite expensive, especially as you add more users."
"The notifications and workflow management can be improved in LeadSquared."
"The solution's report section is not very capable and could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 for this solution is user based. We're paying $39 to $45 per user."
"We are using HubSpot CRM’s free version."
"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 cost of HubSpot CRM is less than the cost of Freshsales."
"We use a paid version of Hubspot and we have an annual license."
"If one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing as a five. HubSpot CRM is much more expensive than Salesforce. My company probably pays around 40 USD per user monthly."
"The license is paid yearly, and it is about 30 euros per month per user."
"We have an annual renewable license for LeadSquared."
"I am not sure about the cost of the solution overall, but with their SMS notifications services, there is an extra cost."
"LeadSquared is not as costly as other CRM solutions."
