Hubspot - saying this because one of the teams I work with is sold on what it supposed to do, and it sucks at doing those things.

Specifically the ads hub or whatever they call the section that is supposed to help with ads reporting.

I've already built 2 replacements for it.

They were so sold on the hubspot promise they dedicated a significant amount of time and money to try to make the thing do what they expected, and then consulted with 3 software dev companies to build out what was needed to make it work.

Once they saw the $30,000 price, months of custom dev work, plus what is the enterprise level thing now? $7k or $8k per month - and this is shimming.. they paused finally.

Funny thing is the new canvas in google sheets did 99% of what was wanted, did it in 30 minutes, and it's $30.

Build a replacement for looker studio, exact same issues.

Although Cody might have done that with Graphed - I have not jumped in to test it yet.
