### "Excellent tool with many options. Great even in the limited free version. "

December 16, 2024

5.0

Excellent. I use it for contacts and to keep track of emails, and it is a great help. The integration with Gmail makes it very easy to save all the emails, and even to send emails directly from Hubspot. It is really a great help.

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.

### "A reliable and scalable platform to align marketing and sales"

September 3, 2025

5.0

Overall, has been an invaluable platform for AVOW. It has brought structure and efficiency to our sales and marketing alignment, improved visibility across teams, and allowed us to run data-driven campaigns at scale. The tool continues to evolve, and despite some limitations, it remains a central part of our tech stack.

Pros

What I like most about is how seamlessly it connects our marketing and sales activities into one ecosystem. The automation features save our teams time, the dashboards give us both high-level and detailed insights, and the integration with other tools ensures that we always have a single source of truth. It has really helped us scale and stay consistent across global campaigns.

Cons

Advanced customization options can feel limited, and some reporting requires extra effort to tailor to our specific needs. Also, while the platform is very user-friendly, the pricing scales quickly as you add more features or contacts (they come in thesholds), which can be a consideration for growing teams.

[Pipedrive](https://www.capterra.com/p/132666/Pipedrive/)

We needed more than just a CRM. Pipedrive worked well for pipeline management, but it lacked the depth we needed to connect marketing and sales under one roof. With HubSpot, we can run lead nurturing, marketing automation, reporting, and CRM in one ecosystem — which gives us better visibility and helps our teams stay aligned. For a company like AVOW, working across multiple regions and managing complex client relationships, HubSpot offered the scalability and integrations that Pipedrive couldn’t provide.

### "Lots of features - little too pricey!"

March 30, 2026

4.0

Really impressed with the set up and customer support, however for a smaller business who needs to dip into different features the pricing just gets too expensive.

Pros

The customer support was good. There are a lot of integrated features which can make using it a kind of one stop shop for the user if you can switch everything over.

Cons

For what we needed it was too advanced and too expensive to justify using all the features. We found it cheaper to use different companies for the different areas than all the features at Hubspot.

### "Shocking Experience With HubSpot Sales Support"

January 29, 2026

1.0

On January 29, 2026 (Romania time), I contacted HubSpot’s Sales support to discuss an issue related to my plan. What followed was an unacceptable chain of unprofessional, disrespectful, and frankly shocking interactions that no customer should ever experience. The first agent instructed me to send an email to a specific address, conveniently failing to mention that this address only accepts emails from professional accounts, making it impossible for me to contact them. When I called back to request the correct information, the situation escalated. The second agent was openly disrespectful. In the background, I could clearly hear motorbikes and dogs. At one point, he put me on hold to answer his personal phone. After that, he simply stopped responding while I was still on the line, forcing me to end the call myself. I called again and reached another agent who laughed at me. She explicitly stated that it was not her responsibility to speak with a manager regarding my issue, left me waiting without any communication, and ultimately told me she would end the call solely because I asked to speak with a manager in order to report the experience I had just endured. I called one final time. The last agent told me to “search on Google” for whatever I needed, said she would not provide any information because she works in sales, and then abruptly disconnected the call. This is, without exaggeration, the worst experience I have ever had with any company or call center. The behavior displayed by multiple HubSpot representatives is unacceptable, unprofessional, and damaging. I will be filing an international complaint regarding this incident. I have been a HubSpot customer since 2021. I recently upgraded to a paid plan, and this is the level of treatment I received. I strongly advise others to carefully consider which CRM they choose, as they may be subjected to the same experience. These calls should be reviewed in full to clearly expose what actually took place during each interaction.

Pros

It is very difficult to make a decision because the features are constantly changing. Creating confusion and instability, while customers are consistently pressured to upgrade and pay more.

Cons

Functions are added and removed without consistency, and you are repeatedly pushed to pay more. On top of that, users are repeatedly pushed to pay more just to retain functionality they previously had.

### "powerful tracking ads"

March 9, 2026

4.0

HubSpot has helped us to automate our campaigns, saves me time and effort. With it, I can track who is reached and I know how to contact them.

Pros

A complete marketing platform, it makes email automation too easy, streamlining tracking campaigns on Google and Facebook effectively.

Cons

I remarked recently some email campaigns didn’t perform as well as they once did and received fewer responses, which is a challenge.

### "Intuitive all-in-one marketing automation tool with strong CRM integration"

September 27, 2025

4.0

I create and send customer mailings and mailing lists. Making email management quick and user friendly. The entire lead process can be mapped and organized using this tool, saving you a lot of work and making new customer acquisition more efficient.

Pros

The user interface is very intuitive, so even new team members can get up to speed quickly. I find the seamless integration between CRM and marketing functions particularly helpful, as it keeps data consistent and automates processes. Saves a lot of time because I no longer have to jump back and forth between different tools. I love the email tool, super easy and intuitive to use. You can create and send great newsletters supper quickly using drag and drop.

Cons

In some instances, the contact forms and mailing templates/modules are limited in terms of number of drop downs and various consent footers.

### "Brand manager's works is smooth and fast thanks to HubSpot"

March 13, 2026

5.0

Great experience. The email, forms and campaigns are the sections that I use the most and as a brand manager they make my work very easy.

Pros

I use HubSpot marketing to send mass email to my subscribers. What I like the most about it is that it's easy to use and that I can clone previous templates to create a new one very fast.

Cons

I recommend HubSpot to my clients and I know that for small businesses the plans can be a bit out of their budgets.

### "Robust CRM tool"

November 14, 2025

4.0

Overall HubSpot Marketing is a great tool and can really help streamline marketing for businesses. So long as you take the time to learn about it you can figure it out with their training and customer support and really get your bang for your buck.

Pros

Hubspot Marketing does so much. It also houses a ton of data for your company and can give you a ton of statistics and tools.

Cons

It can be hard to learn to navigate and set things up if you have never worked with a CRM before and also can be a costly option especially for small businesses just starting out.

### "Great, powerful tool for marketing "

February 28, 2026

4.0

Overall a great tool and fun to use and work on. I think it has great potential and I appreciate how they constantly ship new feat

Pros

Hubspot is very user-friendly when you use the support documentation. It is unmatched in terms of email management on a large scale and tracking emails. It is truly an all-in-one with aspects of management from sales through delivery. I've also had a positive experience with customer support.

Cons

Hubspot is quite expensive, so it's not a 10/10 fit for a small business like mine. While the tool has capability to help me scale, I would likely need an investment to justify the cost at this point. Contact management has area for improvement as portfolio views of prospects vs clients or other lists. Integration can be difficult among contacts vs deals.

April 12, 2025

Overall HubSpot has definitely have helped scale our marketing operarions and centralized it. The pricing is what gets to me as you grow. It’s something you’ve got to calculate and see if you need it.

Pros

I liked that the analytics are customized with a lot of reporting. They also centralized.

Cons

The lack of customization for starter plans since it’s essentially to scaling. The pricing also grows really quickly when you try to scale and since all of your data is with them. It becomes complicated to use another CRM epically because some CRM don’t have that specific feature and have criteria’s different from HubSpot to use.
