A very unfortunate Hubspot limitation

Hubspot allows only 1000 properties per company. This is extremely frustrating. I am a one-person company that used up my properties 2 years ago. It must be very frustrating for companies with many employees.

Whenever I need to create a new property, I must delete one of my current properties.

When choosing which one to delete, I have to think it through carefully so that I will not pick a property included in workflows or being very essential.

From a user’s perspective, it is just as stupid as: “I am out of Word documents!” and then having Microsoft telling you that you need to go through your “already used” Word documents, see which ones that has less important content, erase that and then start writing at the top.

I am a huge HS fan, but this issue is extremely frustrating and stupid. I understand that adding more properties will force HS to handle more complexity, but that should be possible challenge for HS developers.

Hubspot, I have had this issue for 2 years, and it is just harder and harder to find properties that I can delete.

Please fix it now.

Hi @Tumbleweed

Interesting dilemma. I have been working with a number of small and medium sized companies and a few larger ones in my time at HubSpot and now as a freelance consultant, and have not come across anyone hitting the 1,000 properties limit.

What sort of properties are you creating and for what purpose?

Cheers
