Room For Improvement

Dynamics 365 Sales struggles with usability and integration, needing enhancements in AI, tutorials, and streamlined features for better performance.
HubSpot Sales Hub needs enhanced automation, better integration, improved UI, and advanced reporting for efficiency and scalability improvements.
If Microsoft could provide direct integration, it would better support customers, especially in the Indian market.
VP Sales at Zelite Solution
They advise about using Power Automate, but it is not suitable for large scale operations.
Senior Achitect at a tech services company with 1,001-5,000 employees
The biggest challenge that people had was the simplicity that something like Salesforce offers, which Dynamics 365 Sales didn't really have.
Senior Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The overall cost is relatively high compared to some alternatives available in the market.
Head of Digital Engineering, Management Consultant at Stax Inc.
The problem with the email tracking feature is that it recognizes auto-screening in email tools, which means HubSpot Sales Hub thinks an email opened by an end-user is actually an email that is screened, giving me false expectations.
Process Improvement Consultant at a consultancy with 51-200 employees
HubSpot Sales Hub could be improved by being more affordable in other countries.
Account Executive at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
 

Setup Cost

Dynamics 365 Sales offers robust features, generally priced at $150 monthly, with discounts, preferred by SMEs despite regional cost challenges.

It is affordable, and what I've seen is a lot of SME customers, small and medium enterprises, tend to go with Dynamics 365 Sales over anything else, which indicates that it's more affordable than some other solutions in the market.
Senior Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The sales component is somewhat expensive, making the overall cost higher compared to some other available options.

Efficient and intuitive experience facilitates global sales collaboration and optimizes user engagement
Beyond what Dynamics 365 Sales currently provides, any improvement would require a combination of processes, changes, and user behavior modifications on our side coupled with the product. The product has launched numerous features, including AI capabilities, though I haven't found use for many of them. Reducing feature bloat would be beneficial, especially considering different organizational needs. In a federated B2B company, CRM usage is limited to fundamental fields. Performance improvements, such as reducing field loading time from three seconds to one second, don't significantly impact average users. In our B2B organization, which consists of numerous companies each generating several million dollars in revenue, teams only need 5-10 strong features. Additional features are primarily useful for central sales revenue operations teams handling reports and analysis. For average users in a B2B services organization, the current feature set is sufficient. Over the last few months, we have received many AI features and co-pilot integration into Teams. However, additional CRM features are not necessary for our usage.

Seamless integration boosts workflow through custom connectivity
The main advantage is its ease of use, and it comes with multiple connectors that can be used to integrate several other systems. The most important feature for us is the ability to plan workflows and integrate other systems manually, even without native connectivity. This is significant because we have connected our internal systems to HubSpot Sales Hub using the API. Another valuable feature is the email tracking module. Once a person is tracked, it adds all the metadata into the platform for later audit or progress tracing of the email. The custom reporting functionality is very helpful. We have been using custom reporting with HubSpot Sales Hub to get periodic reports and see the progress of certain projects. It helps us plan our sales strategy by tracking variables based on project size or site projects. We can link these projects to data and components, which helps us strategically plan based on the reports. The associated lists feature is new, though it has certain limitations when exporting data. HubSpot Sales Hub provides 95% flexibility in terms of allowing us to export, transform data, and bring it back. However, there are some limitations with the associated list feature and the API in terms of flexibility.
