Does a pre-existing subscription to Operations Hub get replaced by a Data Hub subscription automatically, and then the new Data Hub features are available based on your Ops Hub subscription level?

Is the Data Studio something that could replace an integration with a platform like Salesforce? Is there a list of which external sources are supported?

Follow up questions for Data Studio:

Does this sync data back from HubSpot into the connected app once it's been cleaned up, or would that have to take place with a separate integration setup?

Same question as @katherineladue - initial focus is on what does Data Hub mean for our clients who already have Operations Hub? And what, if any, are the impacts to the client that we need to be aware of when the transition is made? Thanks!

Here is an example client:

Our portal already shows this as Data Hub and I looked at some of our clients and there's do as well. I am sure yours will update soon.

Hey @Jonno_Price!

We've been migrating existing Operations Hub customers to Data Hub since the announcement on September 3rd.

All existing Ops Hub customers will be moved to the equivalent tier of Data Hub (e.g. OH Pro to DH Pro). Customers aren't losing access to any features from Ops Hub, and any existing usage of Ops Hub features won't be impacted in any way when the switch happens (e.g. custom code actions will keep running!).

Lmk if you have further questions!

Re: [AMA] Ask Us Anything about Data Hub | September 15-19, 2025

ncarbone — Mon, 15 Sep 2025 20:34:32 GMT

Correct! For example, if a customer had Operations Hub Pro, they'll now have Data Hub Pro.

You'll still need to opt in to the data studio and data quality betas, though. You can do so from the product updates page in your portal.

Once those features become generally available later this year, all Data Hub customers will have access by default.

No, Data Studio does not sync data back to connected apps.

Re: [AMA] Ask Us Anything about Data Hub | September 15-19, 2025

TracyKronzak — Mon, 15 Sep 2025 22:28:25 GMT

Can you share a roadmap of future anticipated features and functions as Data Hub comes online, please?

What Data Hub Features / Use Cases will require credit usage?

Re: [AMA] Ask Us Anything about Data Hub | September 15-19, 2025

MattDataHub — Tue, 16 Sep 2025 12:58:23 GMT

Data Syncs are the only feature that requires credits. Data Syncs occur when you activate data in Data Studio across Segments, Workflows, or directly syncing to the CRM.

In Data Studio, we are planning on adding the following new features as well as other smaller improvements to usability. Things are subject to change here, but these are some of the bigger picture things we've identified.

- Expanding our external data source connection catalogue
- Supporting the ability to union data between sources
- Public APIs for Data Studio actions
- Multi-object sync for external app sources
- Supporting association and association label management in the Data Studio's Sync-to-CRM actions.

For organizations without a deeply technical team, what at are best practices to keep data quality high using Data Hub features?

Can you share examples or case studies of teams using Data Hub?

Thank you

I was super excited to learn that Datasets in HubSpot can now pull from external sources and their outputs can be used in workflow triggers.

This opens the door for ROI reports to live natively inside HubSpot. No more Looker dashboards living outside the CRM.

Also, with Dataset outputs now usable in workflows, this could outperform many custom integrations built just to bridge reporting gaps.

Curious what use cases others are exploring. What’s the first thing you’d automate with this?

Can you walk us through the pricing and packaging for Data Hub? What's the difference between Starter, Pro, and Enterprise? And, what uses credits...and how?

Re: [AMA] Ask Us Anything about Data Hub | September 15-19, 2025

AAdair9 — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 18:20:00 GMT

Can you tell us more about how/where/and extent of the rules we can write for the Smart CRM data enrichment component? For example, if we get tons of OOOs for termed folks with a mention of a new team member taking on that role for a company, can we control if the contact records are updated?

Good Morning,

I have newly discovered the possibilities offered with Event Management, and used the Visualizer, no code option, trying to go as no code, and was wondering how we could add some custom properties that would be collected at the time of the event occurence?
