Provide teams with only essential information.

Your teams need to be focused on attracting, selling, and delighting customers; but irrelevant data and processes slow them down. User permissions ensure your data is protected and your teams are seeing the right information at the right time.

Leverage HubSpot’s user permission tools to control access across areas of the HubSpot customer platform such as records, content, and tools in order to make your teams more focused and efficient.



  1. Oversee user permissions in one simple location.

    Managing user permissions can be complicated. Without an easy-to-use solution, you’ll waste valuable time on administrative tasks. HubSpot’s permission management tools are built directly on the customer platform, so you can manage your teams with the ease of use you deserve.

  2. Monitor user activity to improve key processes.

    Reviewing user activity is a critical step in troubleshooting and evolving business processes. Keeping an eye on the actions of users can quickly identify any issues that might be slowing down work. Use HubSpot’s user auditing tools to gain valuable insights and recommendations to help boost productivity.

  3. Keep Marketing and Sales organized.

    A strong partnership between Marketing and Sales drives more revenue — but cluttered workspaces distract from that mission. Set up HubSpot’s user permission tools to ensure your marketing and sales teams can easily locate their core assets and execute a clean go-to-market motion.
