Overall Satisfaction with HubSpot
We use Hubspot in our marketing and sales department. We are able to login into Hubspot and essentially take care of most of our marketing initiatives from the one platform. It is easy to use and convenient.
- All in one platform. This was a big selling point for us because we wanted to start using social media along with our email marketing, among other things. And Hubspot offered all of these things for us in one place.
- Easy to use. Previously we had a platform that required quite a bit of coding knowledge. Even with the basic knowledge I had in coding I was getting stuck on building out functioning landing pages and had to pay for an Instapage subscription to work around it. Very inconvenient and felt that we should not have to pay for another "software" when there is the ability to build landing pages within the platform we had- we would have just needed to hire someone with coding experience...another unnecessary cost.
- Reporting. We have recently started to pull year end stats for our overall marketing and HubSpot allowed us to provide a lot of great information regarding email campaigns, landing pages visited, CTAs clicked, etc.
- The onboarding was only 30 minute meetings. At the beginning, we definitely could have used at least an hour because once we got into a subject it seemed like the time was up for that meeting and the Hubspot contact was so swamped with other meetings we could never go over the 30 minutes. Maybe offer one hour meetings initially to get new customers really familiar with the product then it can move to 30 minute meetings once there isn't a ton of information to go over or questions to be asked.
- We have already seen an increase in our website traffic and received some pretty significant leads in the short time we have been using Hubspot.
We previously had Pardot and struggled with some of their tools, like building new landing pages. We do not have an IT department and I only have basic coding knowledge so we had to pay for another software to build our landing pages. Hubspot allows us to do everything we need in the one platform and has even helped us kick up our social media a notch!
