It would be super-helpful if we could edit properties in the list views of Contacts, Companies and Target Accounts, instead of having to open the record, find the property, and then edit it.

The preview pane is helpful, but I often have property columns in the list views that aren’t front and center in the preview pane, requiring me to click another button to find the properties. That’s super-cumbersome when you need to edit multiple records - especially when each entry will be unique.

Really need to add this feature! Hoping Hubspot adds this in the near future.

This would be a great addition and a massive time saver. Is there an addon or third party application that provides this?

I have several reps asking about this, which would also be helpful from an admin perspective.

Completely agree. This is common functionality in many other applications. I know it as “In-Line Editing”. It is definitely a time saver and makes the user more productive. For example, if I’m working with a list of contact names, and I see that a phone number needs to be corrected (or even added), I should be able to do that from right in the list without having to open the contact record to do so. This would apply to many other fields in the list as well.

I encourage you to add this basic capability as soon as possible.

Have the same problem. I need to give every account a “name for outreach” to use in sequences. We have a special property field for it.

We sometimes import 100-300 accounts and their contacts.

This is a basic CRM feature, is it not? I’m new to using HubSpot and I can’t imagine why this isn’t already a part of the service.

Hello,

I would like, when I am in the list view of contacts, companies or deals, to be able to edit directly information of the properties. In this respect I would like to save myself two or three clicks and be able to click in the property field from the list and then edit it.

After migrating data, the problem arose that some properties remained empty and it would be a way to integrate within the list view the information faster.

Best regards, SGördel

Same! It would be an infinitely better UX to be able to update properties right from a list or filtered view when we have to update properties in bulk.

Putting in our vote for this feature! Having previously done a lot of work out of Google Sheets, it’s great to be able to see selected properties in the list view however the additional clicks it takes to actually update the property is a barrier for our team. It would be great if you could update it, rather than the information being static.

Been a Salesforce User (and 4x certified) for over a decade and my new business uses Hubspot… I’m shocked this does not exist. Huge pain the buttocks for sales people or support staff. Can’t even change a status without opening the record.

Agreed! This is a major pain point for our customer success team, who are regularly making updates at the end of the quarter. It would save them incredible amounts of time to be able to inline edit a list view of their customers, rather than needing to open each invidivual company record, make the edit, save, go back, and repeat.

Love this idea - this is especially helpful when you’re managing dozens of companies and need to continually update the same fields on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly basis.

I would really apprecite this feature. I work with several companies at a time and it is unwieldy to make changes to the same fields individually by opening each company page one at a time. I have to update those same fields on biweekly and monthly bases.
