HubSpot Data Hub vs. Xactly Forecasting®

In cases of brands that have been in the market for a long time but do not see any impact from new clients or consumers, HubSpot is ideal since it allows to keep the brand fresh in the mind of the audience. HubSpot additionally provides insight into what we're doing and allowed us to align the sales team with company goals. It also ensures that you receive updates from your computer. We can handle all programming requests that come into our team. One thing that HubSpot can improve on is not having a good centralized dashboard that allows for a full view of ALL data coming in. You can go to each piece, but not having them all attached to the board adds a bit of a challenge. It's not very complex to handle, but it would be easier to use if it had that feature.

When you are looking to see where the risk are and where the future will bring you, this is the tool for you! I can see this being a useful tool, however once I am in the groove I don't know how much I would use it. All in all I would say us it if you are in sales, it will improve your overall sight.

• Easy to figure out. Once you login, it's incredibly easy to figure out what to do, thanks to their simple UIX.
• Easy integrations with many partners. PieSync offers easy integrations with many partners. Integrating is as easy as clicking, filling in your login information and clicking again!
• Allowing multiple integrations. I'm glad PieSync allows multiple integrations so you aren't limited with how you integrate your different systems with contact information. Very helpful!

• The biggest issue we have had with PieSync is the lack of detail within syncing. Sometimes when there is an issue with a Sync it is hard to determine what went wrong. Even though most of the time it's user error, it's hard to diagnose issues with the current PieSync set-up.
• The pricing of PieSync is a little odd and I think should be based on something other than number of contacts you're syncing.

• Is only for opportunities.
• Difficult to bring in custom object.
• Some alert notifications were tough to configure

I used it with a couple of systems that I was not expecting to be smooth sailing and it just worked without any issues.

Every time that I've had a question, PieSync has been very responsive. It is a reliable company with a great team that is devoted to helping their customers. I've been their customer for 2 years and I've never looked back. Support is an important reason why PieSync is my go-to app for this job.

PieSync is much less confusing, and from what I remember, cheaper. But if you need a more robust solution to get more data from system to system, you will need to find something other than PieSync. Zapier can be confusing and complicated to setup. And as you get more and more into the weeds with Zapier, you start realizing that you need to upgrade from plan to plan as you add these more complicated steps.

Xactly Forecasting has a smart AI tool, this is what puts them ahead of the competition. With their smooth interaction with other apps and programs, it makes it seamless when using other apps and programs. I find that when it uses its forecasting skill it shows us exactly what we need to see for the future.

• PieSync saves our team countless hours of repetitive data input by syncing the data automatically.
• PieSync has allowed us to use additional specialized marketing software and still be able to keep our contact data synced to our CRM.
• ROI is positive as the cost has far outweighed the time savings of inputting data and reducing mistakes with client data.

• Honestly, we cannot put a value on it. It's hard to know if it helped or hurt, but don't think it has helped.
