Participants: To qualify as a competition participant, a partner must have joined the HubSpot Solutions Partner Program before January 1, 2027 and still be active and in good standings in the program at the time that final awards are evaluated and have no pending escalations, have at least five reviews that were posted in 2026 published on the directory at the time that the final awards are evaluated, be of Gold tier or higher at the time that the final awards are evaluated, have at least 500 Managed Points Average in 2026, and have at least 90% Customer Dollar Retention for 2026 overall.
Criteria: Once qualified, partners are ranked against one another using revenue retention metrics evaluated at the partner level. The partner from each region with the highest 2026 revenue retention of all of their sold and managed clients wins. Ties will be broken with the following criteria, in order: The partner with the largest number of customers (including both managed and sold) wins. The partner with the highest 2026 sold MRR (calculated in the same manner as the Partner of the Year award) wins.
Revenue Retention: Revenue Retention is a measure of how cross-sell, upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations compare to a partner’s install base of sold and managed clients: specifically, an annualized calculation of monthly net MRR changes for customers. The formula for Revenue Retention is (End-of-Month MRR/Beginning-of-Month MRR)^12, where the End-of-Month MRR doesn’t include any new clients from the month.
