Long gone are the days where a business can operate effectively without a comprehensive tool to manage and report on marketing, sales, and customer service. One such tool we’re big fans of at BlueRock Digital is HubSpot.
Our CRM consultants love HubSpot because it provides a suite of interconnected tools designed to help businesses thrive, and it integrates them all into one seamless system.
HubSpot also has a more intuitive UX and UI than certain big-name competitors, making it easier for teams to use and a smoother experience for businesses navigating CRM change management challenges. In this article we explain the core functions of HubSpot and how it helps our SME clients thrive.

HubSpot is an all-in-one CRM platform that offers a range of software solutions called hubs. Each of these hubs is designed to solve specific problems within a business's marketing, sales, service, and operations framework. By integrating these hubs, HubSpot provides a unified and efficient approach to customer relationship management.
