    If you want all your marketing activities to be in one place, where your CRM and customer data exist, go for Hubspot's entire suite, which could include CMS, depending on your needs. If you have to create a company blog, marketing landing pages for events or lead generation, or send decently designed newsletters, Hubspot does the job well. Any company that has grown to enterprise level or has fragmented marketing should probably not use Hubspot CMS because of the fragmented activities that might occur. Hubspot's reporting can also break. Also, if you want your designed pages to be very creative with many animations, Hubspot CMS is probably not the way to go. But for anyone who is still finding their footing, go for it.

    One of the biggest strengths is the structured authoring, which not only gives clean content for users but is also well-suited for providing AI content. I also make good use of content reuse, which simplifies maintenance and documentation updates when features change. The taxonomy has allowed me to create versioned documentation on our site that correlates with customers' installed software versions. We're switching over to using the API for publishing to our website and that will be a nice switch from the publication structure we've used previously. The tool doesn't, at this time, allow me to connect it to a custom GPT or create one that would be based on our style guide. There also isn't an MCP server option to work better with my Claude configurations.

    Pros
    HubSpot

    • The review mode is super convenient. Comparing a snapshot of the previous versions with the current one clearly outlines the respective changes and reduces the necessary content to review tremendously.
    • The option to reuse text fragments is another handy feature. Text fragments will be updated whenever the original text fragment is altered is also extremely helpful.
    • Managing a content's structure was never easier. An intuitive drag & drop functionality allows you to design your document's structure however you like.
    • You can also fork content, in addition to reuse text fragments. This is another helpful option that no longer requires you to create repetetive chapters over and over.

    Cons
    HubSpot
    • Although you can integrate it with Google Analytics, there is still a significant difference between what each tells you about [a] number of visitors to a given page, etc.
    • There's a lot to the program and it's not always intuitive where to go for a feature. Though the help center and academy are good and usually have the answers, having to look things up isn't.
    • It's expensive.

    • The amount of CSS/JS required to customize a site's appearance can be cumbersome
    • Product documentation can be lacking, specifically with integrations; in some cases, support offered no real help when trying to solve a problem with an integrated service
    • Some features require extensive development experience to use, which can sometimes be an obstacle to less-experienced team members

    I don't think we justify the amount of usage we have of CMS Hub professional. We might discontinue it to save some bucks. But if we ever need an extensive solution, we'll come back to it, as we already other products of Hubspot (Sales Hub, Reporting, Automations)

    Usability
    HubSpot
    HubSpot CMS HUB is well-rounded and brings a robust list of capabilities while maintaining an ease-of-use that beginners can engage. HubSpot is by far the best at doing this among the half-dozen or so CMS platforms I've used in my 20+ years experience. It turns glorified business card websites into purposeful marketing machines that become a key part of a marketing strategy rather than a complicated and frustrating mess.

    Reuse feature was the main reason for selection Paligo. It is the most powerful feature for us as now we have only one source of content that is used in all other documents through reuse. Makes it very easy when we need to update the content (in some cases at least once a quarter) and batch publishing makes it very easy to publish 100s of documents in one click

    All the support requests I've submitted have been resolved in one way or another. Sometimes it takes some back and forth, which is to be expected. This is where being on a different continent becomes a drawback. Since we became Enterprise users, we've also had an additional level of help and support from a dedicated account manager in the US, and the resolutions seem to come more quickly

    We have about 10 seats that were needed. Wanted a sales platform that had good status and reputation. HubSpot was the best choice for me given Salesforce not being the best in the past. Price was appealing and our team liked the overlay. Other options do not provide the same ability with data

    We moved from Flare to Paligo. One of the main reasons was the fact that Paligo is a cloud product. Collaboration with anyone outside of our team was more difficult with Flare. Also, maintaining a server for Flare content was going to become an issue, and overall I felt the Flare desktop product was prone to errors and issues. The flexibility of assigning Paligo licenses was a huge factor, as was the stability of the cloud platform.

    • When I was using it I couldn't see the direct return on investment since I was only seeing web development.
    • Practicality when creating articles and content
    • Efficiency when creating landing pages, basically content and interactions, but no return on investment in money.

    • I am not involved in the financial decisions for my company regarding Paligo; the decision to migrate our content to this environment predates my hiring. However, I know that the migration effort from WordPress to Paligo was an initially heavy lift, but any content migration effort would be. I believe that ultimately, getting our content out of WordPress was a positive move, and I look forward to seeing what Paligo will help us accomplish in the future. Sorry, no hard numbers from me. :)
