Overall Satisfaction with HubSpot CRM

HubSpot CRM is used to maintain a portfolio of clients for each recruitment representative. It is also used as a live chat service to help individuals in real-time with any questions or concerns. The problem is maintaining the large number of contacts we meet during the recruitment season and optimizing touchpoints. HubSpot CRM allows the use of different sequences for mass customization for different types of contacts, this includes breaking down each type into a specific list that can allow different sequences to be built to automatically maintain the relationship with that individual. Without HubSpot CRM managing the contact list would be impossible and the scale at which our team could operate would greatly be diminished. It also turns hours of emailing into a 10-minute process.

Pros

  • Sequences
  • Snippets
  • Templates
  • Lists of Contacts
  • Record Management
  • Meetings

Cons

  • Contact Editing
  • Outlook Integration
  • Merging Contact Information
  • Threaded Replies
  • Highest application rate in Ontario this year
  • Improved overall outreach volume from Recruiters
  • More engaged reps with easy workflow
It beats Salesloft in every aspect except for the dialing over the internet usability. The functionality on HubSpot CRM is still extremely usable, and I would rate it high, but Salesloft specialized in that aspect.
The biggest connection here is the ability to view where individuals are coming from. The data integration shows the source of the contact and allows our team to focus on specific items that may draw their interest. Our marketing and sales teams often work in conjunction already and we do not have a traditional sales cycle, but HubSpot CRM does allow for enhanced view and sharing across both teams.
HubSpot CRM is a better emailing and sequences tool then both of the other software suites by far. I find HubSpot CRM also has the best UI. Salesforce does have better record storing and database capabilities but I still prefer HubSpot CRM over both of these CRM platforms.

Did HubSpot CRM live up to sales and marketing promises?

Did implementation of HubSpot CRM go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy HubSpot CRM again?

Yes

HubSpot CRM is perfectly suited to the recruitment education sector. It allows for personalized 1on1 meetings with contacts while also providing the live chat service and mass email capability that allows our team to generate as much outreach as possible. I have had fantastic conversations and several warm responses to my outreach efforts because of HubSpot's CRM automated emailing tools that work in conjunction with the other aspects I have mentioned. HubSpot CRM can sometimes lack the precision required when dealing with a contact constantly, and the mobile implementation of the product can be less than stellar. But HubSpot CRM cannot handle every aspect of my job, so overall there are few scenarios where HubSpot CRM has zero utilization.
