We use HubSpot for Lead Generation and Lead Nurturing for our agency. We are specialized in Interior Design and Non-Profit organizations. We wanted to use the whole specifications of inbound marketing as this our main business.
  • Full Integration of all required elements of Inbound Marketing; Blogging, Social Media, Landing Pages, Call-to-Action, Email Marketing, Automation Workflows, Personas and Campaigns paired with website native responsive CMS (including website personalization) and integrated reporting / analytics.
  • Continuously improved and updated SaaS platform
  • Easy to use and time saving
  • Competitors monitoring
  • SEO optimized
  • CRM included, satisfactory for most SMBs
  • The only thing we miss is not being able to swap content pieces within an existing workflow. You have to create a new one.
  • It's important to setup a folder structure for images and content in front to find the requested assets easily.
HubSpot Professional responds perfectly to the needs of SMB companies.

HubSpot usability was for us the most important factor. So new people in our organization or our clients themselves don't have any problem starting using HubSpot.
  • Implemented in-house
Yes
- Basic Implementation: domain connection, localization, template setup, social media integration - First landing pages, calls-to-actions and blog, data base optimization - Website pages, design optimzation - Campaigns
Change management was a major issue with the implementation

In order to set up HubSpot you have to clearly know what you want to achieve (goals) and think over your buyer persona(s).

Implementing inbound marketing, even in a small scale, always means rethinking processes in the company.

It changes the way Marketing and Sales teams work together.

  • Developing new content for each stage of the funnel
  • Learning to use new technics (Webinars etc.)
  • Being patient!
Starting with HubSpot allows you to rethink the way you sell, you communicate and manage customers and employees.
  • Online training
The online courses are compact but helpful to learn how to use HubSpot within a short time. It does not consist in on-demand videos only but includes a practicum too. There are also a lot of complementary documentation available for download.
For
There is a guide which pop-up for any new configuration of HubSpot. It's important to complete all the steps.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
No - we have not done any custom code
No
The standard support from HubSpot is quick and efficicent. The problems get mostly solved within 24 hours, even via email.
HubSpot support is not only willing to help you solving a problem but support you with suggestions and optimizations. The communication is trackable and fast.
No
We had an issue with a form script on a customized landing page and weren't able to align all the form inout fields. HubSpot support answered our email within 4 hours, not only telling us how to fix the problem, but did it for us. Our client was incredibly happy to see the problem solved in such a short time.

  • I am an MBA marketing '84. Not at all technically proficient. HubSpot allows me to translate marketing into website features.
  • Education is vital. Again, I understand marketing. HubSpot education shows me how to translate concepts into internet.
  • My beloved "elves", the technical support group, are knowledgeable and gracious every time they have to pull me out of the weeds.
  • The missing functionality is that I cannot give access to just a specific page or function to another employee. I now have someone helping me with social media and I cannot give him access to posting and tweeting without giving him access to the whole website.
Take any training webinars that are applicable. Call the elves when you are in the weeds.
  • In a sales graph you can actually see when we started with HubSpot. There is a big bump up and the graph goes up and to the right from there.
HubSpot was much more broad spectrum than SalesForce. It addressed many more needs and in a totally integrated fashion.

We might add Salesforce as we grow but it will only address one area of our needs whereas HubSpot hit website development and maintenance, social media presence and other areas that Salesforce does not.
See answer to last question. It works.
Good but could be more powerful
I am waiting for the new CRM and expect my rating will go up.
More than I can digest. This is more than fine.
No existing CRM

Sales and marketing, administration (HubSpot doesn't help with that) and HR (HubSpot doesn't help with that either)

Being a small company with one person wearing many hats, HubSpot makes my sales and marketing (which is my passion) much more effective. I guess it helps with admin and HR because I spend less time (and get more results) on S&M.
0
That is the beauty of HubSpot. We don't need any in-house expertise. Their technical support (aka elves) are knowledgeable, eager and easy to work with.

With HubSpot a non-technical person can accomplish jobs solo that would otherwise require an in-house team. Yay HubSpot!
  • Lead generation.
  • Lead follow up.
  • Blogging tool.
  • Social media tool.
  • Analytics.
  • Totally get away from having an outside webmaster.
  • Make social media posting more efficient.
  • I would love to have the person power to track each lead that comes in and update. If we put better information in, we'd get better analytics out.
  • When I get an opportunity I would like to see about moving from Mail Chimp to the HubSpot email tool.
Yes
It replaced our outside webmaster and his WordPress.

But, oh, it does so much more than web development and maintenance!
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Positive Sales Experience with the Vendor
The promise that I could "own" all our marketing, not just the traditional side.

As an "old" MBA I know the concepts - they haven't really changed - but wouldn't have known how to apply them in the internet world. HubSpot first educated me (Inbound Marketing Certification), then sold me the product and supports me in its use, any and every question I might have.
Not at all.
  • Vendor implemented
No
Change management was minimal
There were no changes even asked for on our part. HubSpot molded itself to our business rather than requiring us to mold ourselves to it, which is something I find all too common in software. In order to use the software we have to change how we do things. No! With HubSpot we didn't have to change a single thing we were doing. It just helped us do everything better.
  • The template was a little bit constricting but once I figured it out and went with the flow - YAY team!
  • That I couldn't wait to get started.
Spend time with your rep to set up expectations and time line in depth. My rep, Ryan, did that and everything went smoothly and on the schedule he and I agreed on.

Within a month of implementing our sales graph took a big bump up and has grown from there ever since.
  • Online training
  • Self-taught
Comprehensible by a non-techie, comprehensive and personalized as necessary.

The webinars are enjoyable, fast moving and chock full of information. The presenters and their helpers take and respond to questions. Webinars are then available for downloading online for anyone who missed attending.

HubSpot also provides a calendar of when specific webinars will be given so you can polish up your rough spots.
The webinars are great!

I strongly recommend attending as many pertinent webinars as possible on the individual training. Also, attend "office hours" if you have questions or need a little extra help "getting it".

For me, the marketing concepts were familiar friends. I had to learn how to present them electronically, which HubSpot training certainly did.

For someone more technical, self-training might work. For me, the webinars are my oxygen to make the product work.




Truth is, any more configurable and they would lose a non-techie like me.
Let HubSpot do it for you.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
Some - we have added small pieces of custom code
We do have an HTML person available + the elves will write specific HTML for a particular need.
No.
No
The elves listen, solve and cheer me on. What more can anyone want?
No
Each and every time I call technical support (my beloved elves)
  • We don't need to know HTML to upload copy onto our website.
  • I can track a lead as well as get instant analytics for all my leads - source, success.
  • I can compare my analytics to those of my competitors.
  • I can graph our progress and successes.
  • One thought goes through all our social media and it can be scheduled to repeat.
  • Anything that is difficult prompts a call to my elves who will help me. Cheerfully.
Yes
Not really HubSpot. We could hire one of their partners to create it for us.

It's on our list of things to do.
Fantastic. Fabulous. Amazing. Terrific. (enter any positive superlative you would like)
It hasn't failed us as we're growing.
Support is available on line 24/7 (I have gotten emailed responses in the wee hours)

Telephone support is available EST 8 am - 8 pm M-F.
Hasn't failed anything or anywhere.
  • We have integrated modules within HubSpot but haven't taught it to dance with any other software.
  • Salesforce.
none
I gave it this rating because they regularly offer webinars on software with which they integrate in partnership with those companies. Everything at HubSpot work and works well. Plus I imagine a partner company wouldn't stick their neck in a noose with HubSpot unless they were totally sure.
Let them help you. They will.
Amazing! Attentive, knowledgeable and ready to move at my pace.
Couldn't have asked for things to go more smoothly. They set and exceeded all their goals.
That we would pay them what they asked for. They did offer an extra month of trial but I was ready to rock and roll.
Trust them. It is rare but you really can.
Yes
They don't actually have releases. They are constantly upgrading features. If it is major there will be a webinar available. Otherwise, you'll figure it out or ask an elf for help.
  • Social media tracking.
  • Closing sales tracking.
  • Don't know. We go with the flow. The only outstanding request we have is to allow access to others on our team on a page by page basis.
