Since it comes along with the Hubspot CMS, it behaves nicely when it comes to analytics and revenue attribution modeling. Overall it is easy CMS to get things rolling instead for tech bandwidth.
The number of modules that come natively leaves a lot to desire. Most of the time you have to build something from scratch rather than dragging and dropping. That needs improvement.
When we were depending on the tech team to publish new blog posts and landing pages. Once we got a hold of desired template we were able to publish a lot of blogs in a rapid manner.
This tool is incredibly robust and super simple to use. HubSpot CMS Hub makes it easy for me to do my job well.
Nothing. I like everything about HubSpot CMS Hub.
I needed to replace my archaic WordPress site with a newer one with new designs and easier management. I needed something that didn't require constant maintenance, manual plug-in updates and security upkeep. This tool does the trick well.
I used to be a professional web developer. I am now dipping my toes in running a small (just me) independent life insurance agency. If you look around the industry for tips and tricks, you will see the gurus suggest you pay a grip of money to website agencies for them to build you a crappy website. As we say in the Black community, "I can do bad by myself." Explore your local competition's websites. Takes notes on what you like and dislike; what you think works and doesn't work. Once you are firm on the features you need, explore a CMS option like HubSpot's. It's easy to use and integrates with their powerful suite of revenue-centric software like their excellent CMS. Use a free template or spend the money to buy a premium one. Drag & drop the modules you need. Preview the pages. Deploy them. Test them. Run some speed tests on them. Implement some of the recommendations. Iterate when needed. It's dead simple and very inexpensive at the Starter level. HubSpot takes inbound marketing seriously. They have endless content on how to improve your business, and they eat their own "dog food." A company that cares about itself so much that they fanatically care about your business is an easy decision to spend your money with. They also have incredible support staff that really mean it when they say they will look into your problem and get back to you. I am very happy with them.
They should make it harder to delete global services. Someone not as technically inclined as myself would panic and possibly cancel their subscription if they were silly enough to delete their footer like I did. The support staff can only do so much to help. They are not engineers. I also don't like that the jump between Starter and Professional is so high. This is probably only applicable if you use their whole suite like I do. They gate features that should be available at the Starter tier like social media management and automation, and they make Professional so cost prohibitive that it doesn't make sense. I don't like having to look elsewhere for services I know they have. Again, this is probably only relevant to the suite. Other than that, I think the CMS is pretty awesome, well engineer, and well-supported.
My business needs a home on the web. HubSpot's CMS makes it dead simple for me to implement a website that meets my needs and quickly iterate it with any whim I think might improve results.
I like that it's paired with the crm. I like it alot
It's a little bit unintuitive to update pages. I am used to not having to navigate menus to change different pages
Getting rid of multiple subscriptions to multiple offerings. I'm not having to check multiple places to make changes
The developer-friendly tooling, documentation and feature sets are simply best-in-class. It took some serious convincing from me to sway my managers away from WordPress for our website rebuild, but they are now very glad I did. It was a relative breeze doing the migration as the lone developer on our team, and we had our medium-sized site entirely migrated within a month and a half.
The few things I dislike about Hubspot CMS are more to do with legacy functionality that I know is being worked on and improved, albeit a bit slowly. Things like improving the blog editor to accept module-based layouts would be great, but it's a minor thing.
It solved the problem of requiring my (the web developer) involvement on every new page we launched. With the CMS tooling, I'm able to build hyper-customizable modules for my team to use to build on-brand pages and layouts without my assistance.
I feel like the ease of working with HubSpot compared to other providers I have used has been excellent. It's all in one place, and everything is easy to access!
I think the only thing I feel is not the best is the huge jump you must make in financial commitment to get to the next level. As a small business owner, I don't have those resources.
It is all under one roof! I love that. I can collect payments, have gated content, look at reports, and overall the ease of use has been perfect for me and my business.
I have found that HubSpot is a fantastic, low-frills multifaceted content management solution that ties across all areas of our business. This is why I not only choose to use it for my own company, but also have recommended it to so many others that are just getting started or looking to make a shift. The ability to have our marketing website tie into our forms and work into our sales team's flow, then later our customer support flow and ongoing customer engagement automation is unparalleled.
While it can be challenging finding developers with the expertise, we have found this to be less and less of an issue as HubSpot becomes a leader in the space. Costs can seem high at first, but when you grow up as a company, there is a definite tipping point that makes it a much more valuable solution in the long run.
The one-stop shop to integrate our public-facing website into our various user flows that cross from prospect to customer. We are able to automate and streamline processes from our blog for SEO to turn people into leads on our main website, then our sales team can have meetings scheduled without sending an email thanks to the various tools that tie in across HubSpot.
Hubspot has a user-friendly interface and a lot of option to manage our users data categorically. Also we hava lots integrations to see our users data.
It's not actually hubspot's usage but we are little bit slow at it's mobile application, in the conversation menu .
We can chase our leads very easily. We can integrate Hubspot with some of our tools to reach user data easily. For example with our IP telephone, we can see who is calling right now.
Hubspot is amazing and really helps in our day to day operations. With hubspot you have it all in one place, you can manage your customer database, your sales, your marketing actions. Easy to use
probably just the color... it's too much orange everywhere Users should be allowed to change the color
It allowed ust to better manage our campaigns and marketing efforts
The concept of sales and marketing is very strategically smart, and that HubSpot was built to help you streamline the two is what I love most about it.
Because it's so robust, it can be a bit of a beast to fully comprehend. I'm sure I'll constantly be learning new things about it. However, they have a great support team who's very responsive and in-depth.
It's helping us send and analyze smarter email campaigns to our target audience, and it's helping us build a sales strategy. We're still at the start of that process, but I know by using the tools provided we'll be well-positioned for success.
I love that everything is in ONE hub and I don't have to click back and forth between platforms. Everything is connected and tracked even down to gmail! The insights are wonderful to track ROIs as well.
It was overwhelming to start because it can do SO much. But once you get the hang of it, it's great. The onboarding calls were also very useful to the team and can get all our questions answered.
I'm still fairly new to the team, so I have not had anything to compare it too, however we love that everything is so user friendly and clear on how to track and add properties to contacts and companies for easier tracking.
Clean Interface. Reliable - hardly ever goes down. Extremely responsive Help Support via Chat.
There isn't really anything that I dislike about CMS Hub.
We moved our website into CMS Hub in 2021 and love how easy it is to track analytics, keep our pages up to date, make edits to the nav. etc.
The easy functionality. Everything is so intuitive. We can easily edit and update our site within minutes. In HubSpot, we are able to create forms, schedule social posts, and craft emails to our dealer network. We can track all metrics and engagement, including traffic on our site, forms, or social posts.
Honestly, there's nothing to dislike! HubSpot has completely streamlined the way we do business. From sales being able to log calls and email touch points and marketing having all of their materials and assets in one place.
CMS has solved several pain points. Having one central hub for our sales and marketing needs has been essential in our business. Everything in the platform connects. We are easily able to locate assets, communicate with our customers, and track performance.
It's super fast at creating websites for desktop and mobile
It does not have intricate or detailed design capability.
It has helped us keep up with the fast pace of our industry.
How fun it is to use the CMS tools to create landing pages, blogs, website pages etc. To be able to build a website for a client last year fast and support them to self manage it saved them money, time and the headaches of having a third party developer.
How quickly the price jumps but this was helped as the client was NFP so got a discount to use the CMS Hub.
self managed website pages, landing pages and blog pages that are synced with reporting, analytics and campaigns
