Weekly Product Update: August 12, 2024

Key Feature Call Out

Mobile Lead Management

In today’s hybrid and remote work environment, having full access to HubSpot’s tools on the go is more important than ever. That’s why I’m excited to share HubSpot’s latest update: the public beta for Mobile Lead Management.

At first, I was a bit skeptical about the Lead Object, but its ability to centralize all pre-sales activities has truly won me over. And now that Lead Management is available on mobile, I’m officially sold. Even if I’m still not crazy about the name “Lead Object,” the functionality speaks for itself.

This update is available to Sales Enterprise and Pro accounts.
