Sentiment score

Microsoft Dynamics CRM's support is generally satisfactory, but response times vary, and premium support offers better responsiveness.
There is always an account rep that's available, and there is a technical account rep that is available for every account.
Part of it is different language use, and while that's okay, it wasn't immediately evident where to find help, verify, or submit a question and get responses.
HubSpot's customer service is excellent and fast.
I would rate customer support as ten out of ten.
While the support operates within their standard SLA, it can be difficult to speak directly with someone over the phone.

HubSpot CRM is scalable for all company sizes, but some prefer pairing it with Salesforce for enhanced capabilities.
Sentiment score

There are a lot of enterprises using it, however, even as a GTM for HubSpot, their target market is predominantly SMB.
Handling around 100 to 150 users is fine.

I would give it a ten out of ten for scalability.

Room For Improvement

HubSpot CRM needs improvements in customization, pricing, integration, UI, mobile app, support, automation, scalability, and subscription features.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM needs better usability, third-party integrations, mobile customization, and enhanced reporting, dashboard, and automation features.
HubSpot should establish some pre-deployable packages that, when contracted, offer basic functionality.
The response time is slow.
A better CRM can be achieved by providing more customization features.
More use-case-oriented material should be provided to help users and implementers learn how to do more, faster.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM needs improvement in simplifying the setup and configuration process, which can be relatively complex when we want all features to work properly.
 

Setup Cost

HubSpot CRM offers mid-range pricing with modular options but is criticized for limited advanced features and perceived high cost.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM pricing ranges from $50-$115 per user/month, with complexity and customization affecting costs and affordability.
The pricing of Microsoft Dynamics CRM can be complex due to Microsoft's complicated licensing model.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM costs about $110 to $115 per user per month, following a recent price increase.
 

Valuable Features

HubSpot CRM is valued for its user-friendly design, seamless integrations, automation, customizable workflows, scalable features, and real-time reporting.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM offers customizable features, seamless Microsoft integration, and robust automation, enhancing efficiency in sales and customer management.
HubSpot stands out for its ease of use, especially with sequence creation compared to other CRM solutions.
The feature that I find valuable is the customer 360-degree view and the marketing automation.
The integration is very good, especially with Adobe and Google.
The backend storage integrates seamlessly with OneDrive, and the solution offers robust security features, including Azure integration, two-factor authentication (2FA), and comprehensive audit trails.
The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its integration with Outlook and other Microsoft products like Microsoft 365, which includes emails, Teams, and SharePoint.
I can also create fields and customize them according to my needs.

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.
Pawel-Gawronski - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlining resource management and improving project insights with helpful support
The deployment of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is easy because it's a software as a service, which eliminates the need to deploy anything in our data center. It has improved the verification of value streams by mapping projects to products and demonstrating the total cost of ownership. This automation significantly impacts daily operations by reducing the time spent on manual tasks and improving the quality and delivery time.
