HubSpot is growing very fast and with that come teething problems. There have been some issues with reliability of the service and plenty of (usually minor) bugs. Recently this has been much better…but for a while it was painful!

Marketo will tell you that you don't need to know how to code to use it, but if you want your landing pages/emails it to look professional, you do need to review the html code yourself. Having a technical person set it up was vital.

It's basic in design and could use a user-interface lift. I have a stomach for technical viewing, but many don't. I think if it o"ered a more easily understood layout and design it would be easier to introduce the service to my colleagues.

I would like their land page creation tool to be a little more robust. I have worked online with various landing page tools and even coded landing pages myself but I found the landing page tool somewhat di#cult to use at times.
