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

"The most valuable feature is their marketing automation service and sales lead management."
"We can track clients through the system, which is a great feature. It supports cross-functional teams."
"The tool is user-friendly."
"HubSpot CRM has the most reliable and user-friendly options."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its free version, where you can store around 10,00,000 records in HubSpot CRM for free if you have a business email ID."
"The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation."
"It's fairly simple to use. For configuration, it provides quite a bit of information to the salespeople at the fingertips."
"Ease of use is the most essential feature for us. HubSpot is intuitive, so you can learn everything just by exploring and trying it out yourself. The user interface is straightforward, and it's easy to pick that up."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is an easy-to-understand user interface."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is the customization."
"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."
 

Cons

"We wanted to discover a list of clients that spend an average amount with us, and we just don't have that answer at this time. There just aren't enough answers being provided for the questions we have, and that's a real downside."
"Ease of use is the most essential feature for us. HubSpot is intuitive, so you can learn everything just by exploring and trying it out yourself. The user interface is straightforward, and it's easy to pick that up."
"I would prefer it to be easier to manage, or a bit simpler, with fewer options. It's nice to have so many options, but for some clients, having so many options may not be necessary, they can just customize accordingly."
"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."
"The only challenge with the solution is that it captures data in a raw manner, so organizing that information is still left to the administrator or the user, and they need to organize it into structured fields."
"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."
"The solution's user interface can be simpler with features that are easy to navigate."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. The pricing strategy that they have is way too clever."
"The notifications and workflow management can be improved in LeadSquared."
"The solution’s UI could be more user-friendly."
"The solution's report section is not very capable and could be improved."
"The solution can get quite expensive, especially as you add more users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution could improve because it is expensive."
"There is a cost for the solution. However, I am not aware of the price."
"I do not recall the particulars of the licensing fees."
"It's in the upper range. If 10 represents the most expensive, I'd rate it a 7 out of 10. Its price also depends on the size of your team."
"The cost of HubSpot CRM is less than the cost of Freshsales."
"We are using HubSpot CRM’s free version."
"HubSpot CRM is affordable."
"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."
"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."
"The license is paid yearly, and it is about 30 euros per month per user."
"LeadSquared is not as costly as other CRM solutions."
