    I think HubSpot CRM is really worth it for small to large organizations who have at least 5 sales people. You really get more use out of the program the larger your sales team is. HubSpot CRM is such a robust program it does take time to learn and you need to be prepared to scale with it for years. You will be better at utilizing it after year 2 than year 1 for sure.

    SAP Business Data Cloud is suited mainly for SAP data integration. We could able to easily consolidate the data from S4 and service cloud V2 system. SAP Business Data Cloud enables realtime data replications. We could able to leverage the AI core features. As my previous data warehousing skill is from SAP BW, I am missing some basic features comparing to BW. Master data manual maintenance, Time dependant masterdata, language independent text is also not straightforward.

    • With a unified workflow, we can effortlessly update contact records, generate sales deals, and dispatch personalized marketing emails.
    • With Breeze AI, I can easily automate tasks by giving it the proper prompt. It doesn’t generate random text. It helps in managing tasks.

    • Support for AI/ML use cases with SAP Data bricks and without the need to physically transfer the data from datasphere environment.
    • Provide near realtime data for analytics from S4C public cloud via data products which was the primary business problem that our customers were concerned with
    • Provides support to use the best of both the worlds like SAP and Databricks
    • New releases that support for the zero-copy delta share via SAP Business Data Cloud connect to other products like snowflake, google big query and other products in roadmap
    • Moving towards the lakehouse architecture or similar architecture from the former warehouse architecture to meet the increasing demand for the data

    Cons
    HubSpot
    • The mobile app could be better. It is fine for quick updates or checking something on the go, but it feels limited compared to the desktop version.
    • In my time of using Hubspot, the dashboard UI has changed twice I think, and it certainly isn't helpful when you're trying to get used a new view entirely.
    • I have observed HubSpot CRM sometimes has issues with large lists, and shows incorrect number on the list page versus the detail page.
    • Search can be improved, because sometimes it misbehaves or doesn't show what is expected.

    • Though SAP Business Data Cloud supports non-SAP data, integration is still not user friendly
    • Since it combines multiple services together, Cost is based on usage of the tool
    • Could be better if there is automated BW to SAP Business Data Cloud migration tool along with ABAP logic conversion support

    Thus far, our company has found HubSpot CRM to be a reliable service that serves its purpose well: a centralized business contacts database, accessible remotely, with a simple and visually-pleasing interface. Issues are non-existent or resolved quickly, and when the service is experiencing interruptions, notifications and/or updates are sent regularly.

    Usability
    HubSpot
    There is a steep learning curve with HubSpot compared to more rigid Client/Case Management APIs. The platform's openness can be overwhelming to navigate and to teach to those who are technologically challenged. Once you learn the navigation and the tools needed to complete tasks, it becomes easier. There was a lot of clutter on the navigation menu. If your subscription doesn't give you access to a tool, you should be able to deactivate it or remove it from the navigation, which could reduce the platform's overwhelming nature.

    SAP Business Data Cloud has been highly available and reliable for our day-to-day activities. We have experienced very few disruptions, and the platform generally performs consistently. The reason for not awarding a perfect score is that occasional maintenance activities or cloud service issues can occur, as is common with any enterprise SaaS platform. Overall, availability has met our business needs very well.

    Because when I needed help HubSpot responded immediately and provided me with the information I needed which enabled me to realize that HubSpot was even more customizable and easier to use than I thought! And I already thought HubSpot was very user friendly and easy to use, and then Support showed me how to manipulate the settings, columns and the appearance of the tool.

    With a S4 backend a lot of core functionality is made simpler - authorization, data types, currency conversion. In particular if the front end choice is SAP Analytics Cloud. The lack of a good connection from Power BI to the datasphere application (instead of the underlying HANA cloud) is a major drawback in that scenario.

    Contract Terms and Pricing Model

    SAP
    I would rate the contract terms and pricing structure of SAP Business Data Cloud as 7 out of 10. The pricing model is generally aligned with enterprise-scale deployments and provides flexibility for organizations looking to consolidate data, analytics, and governance capabilities on a single platform. The contract terms are comprehensive, and SAP offers multiple licensing options to support different business requirements and growth scenarios.The primary reason for this rating is that the pricing and licensing structure can be complex to understand, particularly when estimating long-term costs as data volumes, users, and workloads increase. Greater transparency around consumption-based charges, usage forecasting, and future scaling costs would make planning easier. I would also prefer simpler licensing bundles and more predictable pricing tiers. Overall, the model supports enterprise needs well, but additional simplicity and clarity would improve the customer experience and make budgeting more straightforward.

    SAP Business Data Cloud provides strong scalability for enterprise data management and analytics, supporting growth in data volumes, users, and business use cases. The platform's extensibility and integration capabilities make it adaptable across departments and sites.

    The professional services team demonstrated strong technical expertise and a solid understanding of data integration, analytics, governance, and cloud architecture. They provided valuable guidance during planning, implementation, and configuration phases, helping accelerate deployment and reduce potential risks. Their recommendations aligned well with best practices and supported a smooth transition to the platform.The reason I did not assign a higher rating is that some specialized requirements required additional consultation cycles and coordination between different teams, which occasionally extended timelines. In certain cases, deeper industry-specific examples or more tailored implementation guidance would have been beneficial. Despite these challenges, the team remained responsive, collaborative, and focused on achieving business outcomes. Overall, the professional services engagement added significant value and helped maximize the benefits of the SAP Business Data Cloud investment.

    Return on Investment
    HubSpot
    • When the decision came to explore a platform that would migrate our data and leave the transition as seamless as I would like to see more native options for automation possible, a number of products were suggested. Once we saw HubSpot CRM we knew it was for us. My division were the trial usage group...which has led to enterprise adoption and we couldn't be happier.
    • I wish I could say that the support team has been awesome... but we haven't needed to utilize them, which is a testimony in its own right. The couple of minor issues we had were largely user education issues and were quickly handled.
    • The commitment the entire HubSpot team has for, not just their clients, but anyone in business that is open to learn resonates with everything they do. I subscribed to their blog and the free resources they deliver is truly amazing and they deserve kudos.
