Why HubSpot Operations Hub?
Growing companies need to change, scale and integrate systems and processes regularly. With each department having its own apps, spreadsheets, databases and communications, they tend to operate in silos.
The problem for these scaling companies is that silos create a reactive, misinformed and fragmented customer experience.
Enter Revenue Operations or RevOps.

What is RevOps?
To scale, a modern business needs the following teams/systems to operate in perfect sync:
- Marketing Operations
- Sales Operations
- Customer Success Operations
- Systems
To scale and quickly evolve to market changes. RevOps is the key.
RevOps provides a centralised function that consolidates these historically siloed operations teams.
The RevOps function is responsible for the processes, systems, and data that sales, marketing, customer success use every day. You need a unified, integration-focused system that connects teams and tools, cleans out junk customer data and automates business processes.
Key Features of Operations Hub
HubSpot Operations Hub combines an ops team’s full toolkit into a CRM platform, bringing all your customer data to one platform.
Moving your company to one hub of information gives your teams the opportunity to align their efforts, reducing friction for their customers, ops team, and a friction free customer experience.
It’s a centralised function that consolidates these historically siloed operations teams. It is a single team that serves all revenue generating business units.
With Operations Hub, you have:
1. A CRM that is connected to everything
Say goodbye to third party integration tools and begin syncing your data across all your business apps two ways and in real-time. Save hours of manual data management, and empower and align your teams with consistent and up-to-date data they can rely on.
2. A database that’s clean and easy to use
A clean customer experience requires clean data. With Operations Hub, ensuring data quality isn’t just easy; it’s automatic. Declutter date properties, capitalise names, clean up phone numbers, and more. Fast and simple.
3. Automation that shifts as your business does
Keep your team efficient and your customer experience consistent, even as online touch points multiply through automation.
With HubSpot Operations Hub, reduce delivery friction and create custom automation actions for every business process — from territory management to time management notifications to NPS.
As your company changes, so do your customer needs, create an easy flow to keep you aligned and adaptable.
Data sync
As your company scales, every employee adopts their favourite SaaS app; and the number of tools you have to manage multiplies. This creates a web of apps that are out of sync and inefficient.
Your customers expect a smooth delivery and communication process, OpsHub enables this by removing friction, and providing one mighty connected tech stack.
Data Sync by HubSpot is an automated way to share data between HubSpot and other apps without manual data entry or time-consuming imports and exports. With native integrations, although easy, they end up being rigid and inhibiting. On the other hand, custom solutions bring results but are expensive and code orientated.
HubSpot’s data sync packs all the punch of a custom-built connector — bidirectional sync, custom field mappings, filtering, historical syncing — in an easy, code-free package.

Here’s how it works:
Standard trigger based integrations, like that of Zapier, follow the rule that when an action happens in one app, it sends a piece of information to the other app and tells it to take a certain action with the information.
Data Sync follows the rule that Instead of an action triggering something in the other app, you simply define which data fields you want to be synced and which to leave out of the sync. This method works great for providing an up-to-date look at any synced record, no matter which app you’re looking at.
Having your business apps connected and syncing data across teams your company will have less data mess and loss. Your teams will be empowered with all the data they need to create a frictionless customer experience.
Programmable automation
Your company isn’t stock standard, and neither should your automation be. With HubSpot Operations Hub your company can create custom automation actions for every business function. The only limit is your imagination.
See the example of code in automation below.
Break the mould and set your automation free. With Operations Hub your company automation processes are no longer limited to the standard triggers, actions and endpoints. Here are a few example use cases:
Clean up CRM company data
When certain field conditions are met, automation can pull data from external sources to populate the record or enrich the contact with more context and should there be a need for manual correction, to automatically notify the team responsible.
Run advanced calculations
Automations can pull information from deals, products, line items, and custom objects to calculate commission for sales members and even allocate leads based on custom criteria.
For example send 20% of the leads to John, 40% to Sarah and 40% to Pete, because they're stronger sales reps.
Manage capacity-based ticket assignment
Automatically assign tickets to team members based on their capacity to assist promptly not just on their online status.
Data quality automation
No one likes messy data, out of order and dysfunctional, your teams especially. Getting deep into your data and finding the issues, and updating the small details and micro faults takes a huge amount of time and resources.
HubSpot Operations Hub helps you clean up your data, especially during an import or migration process and ultimately keep it that way.
With HubSpot workflows, your data will be clean and under control, automatically, so your Operations team can focus on growing your business and not keeping it from catching fire.
