Auto Save

Auto Save option for data updates under contacts and companies on the left column would save a plethora of time on a daily basis.

This would be an awesome feature. Some of our reps have lost important info because there is no autosave feature.

This would be a very useful feature! Our customer service team uses tickets, and eliminating the extra click to press save would be a welcome time-saver.

Yes, yes, yes. ATTN Hubspot: whether you like it or not, we're all trained on Google Docs/Sheets, etc., where autosave is now a reflexive behavior and expectation. Get with the program, please!

JOutler coming in hot with the shame approach. I think this could be
translated to your parents saying "we aren't mad, we're
just disappointed..." or "with a little bit more effort, bud, you could
really make something there, but the bare minimum really won't cut it
anymore..."

Ooohh... sorry. I may be projecting a bit here!

All Jokes aside, though, it would be GREAT if this was a feature!

YES!! I can't tell you how many times I've gone through our list of contacts and tidied up some data, only to find it had disappeared because I didn't hit the 'SAVE' button which is totally hidden in the bottom left of the screen, and SO easy to miss when you have a large monitor. Terrible UX. 

At the bare minimum, it should show a warning in the centre of the screen if you try to leave the page with unsaved edits.. Currently it allows you to leave the page and your changes are gone.

OR - Just add a setting somewhere in the settings, so it's optional for people to turn on/off globally.

What great comments Anthony. Please throw your experiences here in this empty bucket that HubSpot will never check but at least we feel better being in solidarity with one another. Unfortuantely that solidarity still leaves us unable to have a system that functions as smoothly as we like.

Went into shock when I found out there was no auto-save in Hub Spot. Glad I'm just trying it.

@ATench the annoying thing is, that for most parts there is autosave, but for some parts there isn't, which causes all my coworkers to forget they have to save certain fields, and are looking for a save button in others. I really do not understand HubSpots reasoning for this.

terribly adolescent, having addons made to fix easy flaws.
