HubSpot CMS Hub vs. PHPRunner

During the season when sales gets really hot, we can run multiple meetings a day. HubSpot helps us as a central location where account executives can catch up quick on information and see KPI's for our team. HubSpot is not helpful in getting contacts or finding information. It is a place for implementing that information and using it effectively

Initial impression is a 10. I was able to create a function skeleton of my app project within a few hours and virtually no trainig/study. I'll update this review as I learn and develop.

• Search engine optimization is a major strength of this software as it helps content writers in creating effective content.
• It is fully equipped with marketing tools.
• We give much importance to reporting features and HubSpot CMS Hub reports are very useful.

• Simple connection to MySQL tables
• Integrated SMS functions
• Visual app building for us non-programmers
• Fast creation of a web interface for database data

• 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.

It is very easy for my new employees to use. They provide great training tools to help train our staff when they are faced with a challenge

They are always there to help in any way possible. Our account manager works out any situations we may encounter during business hours

Easier and faster to use then these two, HubSpot CMS Hub provides me with a long list of tools that make my marketing process more smooth and easy to manage, it doesn't get too technical but is also not too basic, so it has the balance I need when preparing campaigns for some of our sites.

Reviewed and tried; PHPRunner, PHPMaker, PHP Generator for MySQL, scriptcase, and AppGini. My selection of PHPRunner does not imply anything negative about the listed programs. I was able to create a functioning skeleton app with PHPRunner that I was not able to create with any of the others. I did not want an online subscription-based product.

• Has helped with visibility
• Has helped cut cost since we can do more in one place versus having several software departments are using separately

• EXPECTATION - I will have an app that is mine to license as I please, not a subscription cost
