What Sets HubSpot Apart

More Connected

What Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Offers:

  • Dynamics 365 Sales connects users by providing a centralized platform for managing customer data and interactions, allowing sales teams to collaborate and share information more easily.
  • Dynamics 365 Sales integrates with other Microsoft tools, such as Outlook and Teams, to provide a seamless experience for users. Access to Outlook and Teams may require add-ons.

What Sets HubSpot Apart:

*Users can accomplish reporting within Dynamics Sales using built-in views, charts and dashboards that are available out-of-the-box, but eventually they may find that they run into some limitations (source).

What are customers saying?

HubSpot Sales Hub received G2's top 100 Best Software Products & Highest Satisfaction Products 2023.

HubSpot was recognized on Gartner's 2023 B2B Salesforce Automation Platforms.

Prospecting activity has increased and we have reduced the sales cycle. We have also streamlined processes and [Sales Hub] most importantly allowed us to track activities that we were unable to track using Microsoft Dynamics. Simply put our team did not use dynamics, they found it too difficult and with HubSpot adoption has been amazing.
