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.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation
There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I like about HubSpot Sales Hub the most is that it's complex in a good way, it has everything I need, it's well-integrated with other tools, and it's easy to integrate with."
"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 solution makes it easy for you to log in and manage your pipeline. So pipeline management is very easy and simple."
"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."
"HubSpot Sales Hub is useful for managing workflows."
"HubSpot Sales Hub is a good integration tool. It helps us with other platforms. We can integrate data quite easily."
"HubSpot Sales Hub provides its users with very user-friendly UX or customization controls."
"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."
"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."
 

Cons

"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 initial setup process is not very complicated."
"When it comes to the UI part of the product, it looks very novice and definitely not something meant for an enterprise-grade level business."
"The email tracking feature of HubSpot Sales Hub helps me assess prospect engagement, but I don't think it works well and it needs to be improved; the problem with it 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."
"It would be good if there were sort of more templated processes offered by the tool since this is an area where the product has shortcomings."
"There have been many instances where we later identified certain customers that should have been on our target list yet were not."
"There are a lot of areas in HubSpot Sales Hub that can improve. It is lacking some direct automation. There are a lot of challenges that we have during the integration. To solve this problem, we are using other third-party tools. They could improve on direct automation."
"I think AI-driven features would be great. For example, if it could make recommendations and suggestions for each user, like when to reply or what to say, that would be a great asset in a CRM. This could help sales reps close deals faster, which is crucial."
"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."
"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing offers value."
"HubSpot Sales Hub is priced reasonably. There are other solutions available that are affordable as compared to HubSpot Sales Hub. They are one of the market leaders, the price tag is good at this point."
"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."
"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 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."
"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 very affordable from the perspective of the features."
"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."
"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
