}} A 2012 review in CRM Search said HubSpot was not the best business solution in each category but that taken as a whole, it was the best "marketing solution" that combined many tools into one package. It identified HubSpot's "strengths" as the sophistication of its call to action (marketing) tool, its online ecosystem, and its "ease of use". Its weakness was described as having "more breadth than depth." The review said the lack of customization and design tools could be limiting and that it was missing advanced features such as business process management (BPM) tools to manage workflow.

In July 2015, HubSpot's CMO, Mike Volpe, was dismissed for violating HubSpot's code of business conduct. It was found that he tried to obtain a draft copy of the book Disrupted: My Misadventure in the Start Up Bubble, written by his former employee Daniel Lyons.{{cite web|url=http://www.betaboston.com/news/2015/07/29/hubspot-fires-marketing-chief-sanctions-ceo-over-incident-involving-book-about-the-company/|title=HubSpot fires marketing chief, sanctions CEO over an incident involving book about the company|access-date=2015-07-30|archive-date=2015-07-31|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150731235543/http://www.betaboston.com/news/2015/07/29/hubspot-fires-marketing-chief-sanctions-ceo-over-incident-involving-book-about-the-company/|url-status=dead}}[http://fortune.com/disrupted-excerpt-hubspot-startup-dan-lyons/ My Year in Startup Hell], Dan Lyons in Fortune, April 2016 According to an article in The Boston Globe, records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act indicated that HubSpot executives considered the book "a financial threat to HubSpot" and Volpe used "tactics such as email hacking and extortion" in the attempt to prevent the book from being published.[https://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2016/03/23/documents-released-hubspot-probe-involving-author-dan-lyons/VZH4CN4kR5p7iyhsKEdwJI/story.html Extortion, hacking claims sparked HubSpot investigation, FBI records show], The Boston Globe, 24 March 2016

In April 2016, after his book was published, Lyons wrote in The New York Times that HubSpot had a "frat house" atmosphere. He also called the company a "digital sweatshop" in which workers had little job security.{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/10/opinion/sunday/congratulations-youve-been-fired.html|title=Congratulations!
