HubSpot Marketing Hub Reviews

Pros

I love the flexibility it offers in customising some fields, including in the free version. It is a great way to start using and testing it before engaging in a more advanced use.

Cons

Some parts of the user management are not ideal, meaning that, for example, it is impossible to read a thread of emails.

It was very complete and it offered a lot of features and possibility for customisation.

Pros

Very streamlined, efficient, easy to use, not overly complicated.

Cons

It's difficult for marketing to budget for the price of Hubspot Marketing Hub when the pricing is based on the number of contacts in Hubspot, and the number of contacts in Hubspot isn't controlled solely by marketing. We sometimes encounter limitations with email design in the WYSIWYG editor.

Pros

HubSpot Marketing Hub's easy interface and comprehensive tools were a breeze to navigate and implement strategies with. From email marketing to content creation, the CRM integration was particularly helpful in tracking lead generation and nurturing. And, the automation features saved significant time and effort in repetitive tasks.

Cons

Expensive! I found that it can become overwhelming for small teams and anyone with limited marketing budgets. Another thing is the steep learning curve for advanced features can be daunting. And the customization options can sometimes feel limited. Additionally, for the price I was frustrated with performance issues and bugs, especially during critical campaigns.

Pros

It's a fairly powerful platform, but when directly compared with Keap or Customer.io. It's not exactly better for the cost. They likely have more integrations than anybody else. That's about it. I feel like they stopped caring about their customers as much while they tried to sell their company in Google earlier this year.

Cons

Hubspot use to be the easiest to use all-in-one platform. But, these days allow their competitors have caught up and charge less. When you have a problem with the product or the integration you built, their service is not very helpful.

Pros

Great user interface, genuinely helpful support, very little time to value.

Cons

Honestly, I haven't really discovered anything I don't like so far.

Pros

Hubspot beautifully merges all the functions of a marketer's role into on comprehensive suite that is well integrated.

Cons

Hubspot does many things very well, but is not the best tool at any one task. It's a compromise but having a one-top-shop/hub is invaluable.

Cons

The design elements were the most challenging aspects. It relied heavily on pre-made templates and required familiarity with CSS or HTML to customize. It took a while to get the desired effect after making adjustments that didn't stick, such as trying to center an object or change the font.

Pros

It's incredibly user friendly and HubSpot has the best support and help center.

Cons

I don't love the new navigation/toolbar! I don't think it's super intuitive. Maybe I just need to get used to it since I used the old nav for 7+ years, but it could use some improvements.

Pros

The comprehensive suite of marketing tools centralized in one platform, intuitive interface, and robust analytics.

The pricing structure could be more flexible and transparent, especially for budget-conscious businesses.
