Overall Satisfaction with HubSpot CRM

At BrandStar, I was looking at HubSpot for a few reasons:
1) As a CRM to capture & track leads and deals through the sales cycle.
2) As an automated tool to literally track millions of contacts that were being pushed through a sales sequence.

I had looked at a variety of CRMs and was given the green light to pick the CRM to use within BrandStar. I chose Hubspot due to its strength, cost, and ease of implementation.

In addition, I am an active user of Hubspot at my current position at CIENCE as a sales executive.
  • Easy Implementation
  • Competitive Pricing
  • Powerful Query Capability
  • Strong API & Integration Capabilities
  • The support organization is second to none. EXTREMELY helpful at fixing issues.
  • HubSpot's model is to get you hooked when the price is low and then push you to use more features - and charge you for it. I get it, but some of the incremental features we needed seemed to be overpriced (but we were hooked).
  • At BS, I was able to implement a system over a weekend (and then using a partner) that is now driving $600K+ revenue/month.
  • The system I put in place is invaluable for their system.
  • At CIENCE, Hubspot is equally tied to our success and what I'm using on a daily basis for my lead/deal tracking.
It's extremely easy and powerful and I've used many including SF and Pipedrive. I trained many reps and managers on the use of Hubspot within Brandstar.
Easier to use and more cost efficient.
