Overall Satisfaction with HubSpot Sales
We are using HubSpot Sales to manage our sales funnels in order to get an idea of conversion rates and sales cycle times--for ourselves and for our investors. We also use HubSpot Sales to register our conversations (like meeting notes) so we can keep track of it all. Finally, we keep clients and prospects records so it's easier to find information whenever we need it.
- Manage contacts and company records
- Integrate with gmail / track email opens
- The funnel sometimes doesn't work
- Sales prediction is poor
- Better tracking of deals
- Better time management
I prefer Pipedrive (I used it in a previous company), but I chose HubSpot Sales because it was free and easier to manage with HubSpot marketing for lead generation. Now, I could move to Pipedrive because I'm not using the HubSpot marketing tools anymore, but it's all already in HubSpot Sales and it's free, so I won't bother.
Using HubSpot Sales
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
Technical support not required Well integrated Quick to learn | Unnecessarily complex |
No - It's awful. I use it only for urgent matters and still sometimes it doesn't work, I get angry, and I need to wait to do anything at home, with a computer.
