Overall Satisfaction with HubSpot

It's no exaggeration to say that HubSpot entirely changed how our digital marketing agency works and what we can offer to our clients as a result. For a few short months we offered the CRM and Sales package as optional extras to our package but now it is rare that we will work with somebody who is not willing to use it, the difference in business acceleration it provides is just too big to ignore. You can make your sales people more efficient, your marketing automation smarter and your website personalised in more than just the basic terms of including somebody's name in a title.
  • Marketing automation with workflows
  • Powerful design tools
  • A plethora of sales tools which speed up the process
  • Live chat system needs to evolve
  • The COS design system requires at least a rudimentary knowledge of HTML & CSS
  • Our ROI has increased.
  • We've reduced our spending by removing a number of other tools which HubSpot has replaced.
Whilst Marketo is reasonable we didn't find it gave us the flexibility required in terms of defining our own marketing automation workflows. This is even more crucial when tailoring the product to a client as they often have wildly different requirements.
HubSpot Professional is suited to small to medium businesses looking to accelerate their business growth. It's especially useful for businesses just at that tipping point of getting too much business to manage on spreadsheets and word documents any more. If your team is growing it will help you to get more out of your existing people and slot new members in to the team with minimal training.
