HubSpot Sales Hub's advanced features lack guided, role-based onboarding
Users of HubSpot Sales Hub say its feature depth is powerful but hard to fully exploit, since advanced reporting and automation sit behind higher tiers and require real time investment to learn. They want guided, role-based walkthroughs to onboard into advanced functionality instead of discovering it ad hoc, and note that many built-out sequences/properties become cluttered without discipline.
