Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Salesforce-HubSpot integration
What data syncs between Salesforce and HubSpot?
Bi-directional sync includes: Contacts/Leads (demographic and firmographic data), Accounts/Companies (company hierarchy and details), Opportunities/Deals (pipeline stages and amounts), Activities (emails, calls, meetings, tasks), Campaign membership, Form submissions, Email engagement metrics, Custom fields, and Tags/Lists. We configure what syncs based on your data governance requirements.
How do you handle duplicate records between systems?
We implement intelligent deduplication using multi-field matching logic (email + company name + phone). Salesforce acts as the system of record for existing customers, while HubSpot manages net-new leads. We configure sync rules to merge duplicates automatically or create manual review queues for edge cases. All deduplication logic is documented and can be customized.
Can we track marketing ROI in Salesforce with HubSpot data?
Yes. We sync HubSpot campaign data, attribution models, and engagement metrics into Salesforce. This enables full-funnel reporting: marketing spend by campaign, lead-to-opportunity conversion rates, campaign ROI, customer acquisition cost by source, and closed-won revenue attribution. We build custom Salesforce reports and dashboards for marketing performance.
How do you maintain compliance with SEC and FINRA requirements?
Our integration includes: Audit logging of all data transfers, Field-level security respecting Salesforce sharing rules, Archiving of all communications for regulatory retention, Approval workflows for outbound marketing communications, Suppression list management for Do-Not-Contact records, and Encrypted data transmission (TLS 1.2+). All configurations are documented for audit purposes.
What happens if the integration breaks or data stops syncing?
We implement multiple safeguards: Real-time sync monitoring with alerts, Error logging and retry mechanisms, Daily health check reports, Automatic failover for critical integrations, and Documented rollback procedures. Our managed services include proactive monitoring, typically identifying and resolving issues before they impact operations. 30-day warranty includes all bug fixes.
Can we customize what triggers a sync between systems?
Absolutely. We configure sync triggers based on your workflows: Real-time (immediate sync on record creation/update), Scheduled (hourly, daily batches), Event-driven (specific field changes like Status = MQL), Form submission-based (auto-create leads from HubSpot forms), or Lifecycle stage transitions. All triggers are customizable and can be adjusted post-deployment.
