Complex setup process impacts functionality and requires improvement
From my experience as a VP of sales, I was not involved directly with development and configuration, but every time I need some change in our strategy and data, it takes a lot of time from our development team or technical team to implement this change. It is not easy to add columns or information in the reports or in the information that I gathered from Data Cloud. It takes a lot of time, and it was not exactly what I was expecting. I had a project that required changing the views that I need from my team, and it took two to three months to make the change. It was just a simple click of a button and adding some information, so what I was expecting to take one or two weeks took three months. It was very complicated to implement in the beginning, and it took a lot of time. It is a very good product, but it is very complex to implement, change, develop, and integrate.

Manages prospecting and identifies the entire sales lifecycle for a prospect
The solution has improved our workflow by providing a centralized solution. It is a one-stop solution that allows us to analyze the sales pipeline and plan activities for specific customers, giving us insights into our approach to prospects. The key improvements include the ability to cross-sell capabilities and identify conversion influencing factors, which we can use to convert customers. The most valuable features in this solution are the activity tracking for a particular prospect, deal sizing, deal valuation, the entire ecosystem of the deal, and the contact person associated with the deal. The tool is quite user-friendly. When we started using it, it was quite clear how to use it. It is a very user-friendly platform, so adopting it had no significant issues. One valuable feature is that it automatically integrates into HubSpot when you write an email to a prospect and include a specific email ID. This gives clear insights into ongoing communications, eliminating information hiding. This feature helps in understanding the entire historical aspect of a prospect, even if the person originally handling it is unavailable.

Pros

"We never had a problem with stability."
"I rate my experience with Data Cloud a nine out of ten."
"The solution has improved our workflow by providing a centralized solution. It is a one-stop solution that allows us to analyze the sales pipeline and plan activities for specific customers, giving us insights into our approach to prospects. The key improvements include the ability to cross-sell capabilities and identify conversion influencing factors, which we can use to convert customers."
"HubSpot Sales Hub provides its users with very user-friendly UX or customization controls."
"The solution makes it easy for you to log in and manage your pipeline. So pipeline management is very easy and simple."
"The product helps us to identify coincidences and work to build a model that will allow us to identify opportunities."
"The solution is very straightforward to utilize."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the tracking of customer interaction and client introduction."
"You can create the workflows and also the different dashboards that you can create. I find it really convenient to generate a lot of reports plus the different views to present the deals."
"The tool has improved my sales pipeline management. It allows me to track the progress of each sales cycle and receive alerts when a sales stage is ending, prompting me to take necessary actions. I can easily manage customer interactions, primarily through email, which are automatically associated with the corresponding lead or opportunity. This helps me forecast sales. Additionally, the tool offers other useful tools for marketing and email marketing activities."
 

Cons

"It is a very good product, but it is very complex to implement, change, develop, and integrate."
"Customizability is both an advantage and a disadvantage. While it provides a suitable solution with many pieces to integrate, it also adds complexity."
"One challenge for us is getting our team engaged in HubSpot. Some of them are not familiar with CRMs, so we spend time training them on HubSpot's features."
"The tool should get better at catching leads. Currently, it works better on catching inbound leads. Whenever a person signs up on the website, HubSpot catches the lead and creates an account. However, it is not 100 percent accurate."
"There is always room for improvement; I expect more integrations with different tools. I also appreciate the mobile app's user-friendliness. However, I think there could be improvements in database cleaning and customization options for information presentation on the screen. Overall, as a final user, I am very happy with HubSpot Sales Hub."
"The tool doesn't effectively summarize conversations and note-taking features. The solution needs to include predictive analytic capabilities. There is room for improvement in post-call functionalities. After a sales call, more can be done, such as providing detailed insights and better note-taking capabilities. An AI-enabled sales assistant feature would also be beneficial."
"In my experience, the reporting area of the solution is somewhere the solution lacks a bit."
"The tool should add a prospect success feature. Some intelligence should be drawn from our activities and the data we're feeding to recommend the next action. Some AI enablement will help us take the next step for a particular prospect or recommend solutions to help with prospect conversion from an out-of-the-box perspective."
"There is a general challenge with CRMs, including HubSpot Sales Hub, where users may not fully understand the system's capabilities. I believe there is a need for better clarification and explanation of what CRMs entail."
"It would be good to be able to add AI and make it easier to integrate the tool with our day-to-day processes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We have to pay for licenses. They are not expensive."
"The tool's licensing depends on factors like the number of contacts, users, and additional modules. But generally, it's feasible and accessible. A free license is also available, although it comes with limited features. Even the free license is cool to use."
"I rate the product's pricing a five out of ten. It becomes expensive when you add more features and users."
"I rate the product price as seven on a scale of one to ten, where ten is the most expensive, and one is the least expensive."
"The solution is very affordable from the perspective of the features."
"From a pricing point of view, it was 1,000 dollars per month. The solution was worth the money paid for it."
"The solution is more on the cheaper side, but not the cheapest. I'd say it's somewhere in the middle. There are cheaper options like Zoho that provide many features at a lower price, but they're not as expensive as Salesforce or SAP."
"The tool's licensing offers value."
