One of the main reasons we ended up choosing the HubSpot software was its user-friendliness. My team has a real mix of skills, from people who are comfortable coding an email to those who are new to the world of digital marketing. The HubSpot software suited every level of expertise; it was powerful yet straightforward. I knew that it would help us get all our activities working together and prove that they were getting results.
