Allow users to be 'primary team member' of more than one team

Currently, a user can be a 'primary' member of only one team. The user can be added to other teams as an 'additional team member', but many team features are unavailable to these 'additional' users (see list of restrictions below).

 

This is problematic and causing us considerable pain because some users need full access to multiple teams, e.g. an individual who is multi-role, or management/supervisory staff who need to monitor what goes on in the team. This is particularly true in smaller businesses. The one primary team restriction seems unjustifiable .

 

Restriction's on 'additional team members':

https://knowledge.hubspot.com/account/assign-users-additional-teams

These users will not be included in any team reports, routing rules (e.g., conversation routing rules), team notifications (e.g., form submission email notifications to a team), or workflow rotation actions. They will also not be able to view any custom records views set up for the team.

 

The solution is to allow users to be primary members of multiple teams.

 

Any feedback?

It's shocking that there isn't a fix for this issue yet. As so many have stated before me, we too have representatives who are multi-role or who sell to multiple, yet different customer segments. Hoping this problem gets addressed soon.

Upvoting this as well, I would like to use a team for our rotation of leads. The members of the rotation change frequently but all members are currently part of a primary team and since the additional team feature does not allow for the rotation action there is no way to just update in one place the new members weekly, I have to update the members individually in each workflow.

Upvote - Need the ability to round-robin leads to individuals who are members of multiple teams

++ to both commenters here. We are also running a pod model with our teams. I would have expected "additional teams" to pull those members into reports filtered by "Hubspot Teams"

Yes, also critical for our business.  We have some blended roles until the business grows to support dedicated new hires to report within a single team.

Yes, this is a VERY important feature. 
In addition to the requirements from a pure sales team perspective (different regions/areas) also our CSM team is responsible for sales (upsell til existing clients) 
So I want also to report (from report builder) but also should subteams contribute towards sales goals.

It is very painful only to be able to send team notifications from workflows to one team per user.

We have a client with users that exist in multiple teams.

 

We need users to be in multiple teams (or additional team members), so that we can use those teams in workflows to send internal emails / notifications.

This is such a fundamental need I was very surprised to find out it wasn't possible. One of the biggest pros of HubSpot is the ease of reporting and the ability to choose a team to report on. Please include this function!

This needs to be fixed.

Anoter +1, apparently almost two and a half years from the original post.

Chipping in with my +1 too. This seems like a completely needless restriction on capabilites. Like many others, I have users straddling Teams and having to micro-manage individual memberships for notifications rather than simply notify a team is a pest

I think this would be very useful, or at least allow to select if only main members or all members to be shown in the report. 
Thanks!

Needs to be fixed. Almost 3 years ago now the post was made. 

 

Defeats the purpose of having teams that you can use in Workflows. 

 

Instead of "Hardcode" communications to specific users you should be able to use "Teams" to add and remove users. It's nearly impossible if you have multiple Workflows that are hardcoded to users to keep track of who gets what. Much easier to use the "Team" in the Workflow and remove and add new users from it. 

 

Please put this in prio

It's a must, for High level Managers to be able to aggregate teams performance and for Team leaders and teams to be able to have a single dashboard to refer to without having to duplicate it and select all the different deal owners !!

This is a must have and the ability to filter companies and contacts by subteam owner.

 

Not sure why they would appear in the analytics section only to give no data

+1 . Currently adding a lot of additional manual workarounds with such limited functionality with teams. Could be easily resolved by allowing a user to be a primary team member of more than one team. Agree that it seems like a completely needless restriction with the current set up.

I think this feature should be handled at least for nested teams to begin with. If I am part of a parent team, then a sub-team within that, that's a different scenario to me being part of two completely different teams.

 

This would be fantastic feature to have when organisations have sales reps that cut across multiple teams.
