"The most valuable feature is probably automating the system. I can send mass emails to pretty much all my contacts or certain ones that meet the demographic requirements. I've used this one and one other CRM with an auto sales company. From my experience, just the ease of use and the user interface on HubSpot is phenomenal. It's really simple and easy to navigate the program. The functionality is phenomenal, and not just the Microsoft Office part but also with LinkedIn Sales Navigator. It's pretty nice."

"API capabilities (including the performance) are minimal and the email workflow capabilities are too rigid, which results in very complicated workflow management."

"HubSpot is mainly for enterprise clients and there is a lot of competition. There are better solutions, such as Eloqua and Marketo.

There are some limitations with the features compared to other solutions."
"The solution is quite expensive, at least, for smaller teams."
"Technical support has been quick and helpful every time."

"Lacks sufficient free custom fields."

"Needs to improve list building."
"This solution could be more user-friendly."
"If you want to use advanced features in Salesforce Marketing Cloud, they are extremely difficult to use."
"The technicality of the solution can be streamlined."
"Marketing Cloud should change the script language that it uses because it's not good. It's tricky and difficult to develop."

"The dashboards should be more intuitive, as there are far too many items on them. You're not always sure what you're looking for."
"We have struggled to get resolution of support tickets from the Salesforce team."
