Folders and Subfolders

Dear Community & Support,

 

As a new user, I have to admit how put off I am by the lack of organizational options in HubSpot. 

 

Campaigns: For starters, there is not a way to organize overall campaigns. I find that HubSpot defines Campaigns too specifically. If I wanted to track overall SMM, then break it down into Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, then year, then "campaign" why shouldn't I be able to?

CTAs: My company has over 120 documents in our library and I know that is more than most but to need to create a single CTA for every single one and then NOT be able to organize them into a folder specifically for the library is crushing.

Emails: Finally! Folders! ... Just kidding, you can't create subfolders so the template folder you wanted for all your tradeshows, events and conferences needs to be its own folder outside of the tradeshow folder.

 

I could keep going but I think my point is clear. I am just looking for a little more organization from HubSpot. Simply put, Folders and Subfolders, please.

Fully agree. We did get some relevant, better features by shifting to HubSpot, but the basic elements of a profession CRM system are simply below par.

 

Lack of consistency across the application to e.g. organize campaigns and other elements in folders as well as setting status to 'active', 'expire', 'archived', 'deleted' is depressing when the daily work is being done.

Most of us are using templated emails to hasten the process. Be it in ad marketing or targeted individual clients. It would be great if we can add subfolders inside each template folder.  We can organize different emails for different stages for each user rather than them all bunched in one. Subfolders - my vote for it!

We 100% need a better way to organize our Campaigns. (Honestly, need a lot more customizability in the Marketing Hub)

Hi all, to share a quick update for you here, better organisation for campaigns is something that we're definitely aware of and are expecting to make a big impact on by EOY this year. We've got a lot of research ongoing in this space and have some potential solutions that will go beyond what folders would be capable of, including support reporting and multiple dimension of organising (rather than just parent>child).

It must be possible to organize all the tools (email, cta, landing, workflows ...) in folders and subfolders in a simple way, even being able to move folders, files. Best asset organization please.

Any insights you could share with us @Shay? (with it being EOY and all) 😉😄

I am also wondering what the update is. This is a feature that will create a better structure in our CRM @Shay ?

Renewing the energy here; subfolders and development around child-parent accounts is a big bugaboo.

Dear Hubspot support, 

 

It would be super nice if you can create some files to classify CTA per page.

It will be so helpful, especially when we have many landing pages and a website. 

 

I am looking forward to hearing back from you,

Many thanks

I support the feature request. Dear Hubspot team, dear @Shay can you please tell us if this feature request is still under review or already included in your roadmap of new features and then at best the approximate release date? Many thanks and best regards, Kris 🙂

Hello @Shay - Can you provide an update on this feature please? Also, can you confirm that subfolders is also being considered for the Documents section?

I support this feature request and am surprised that it hasn't been implemented given the initial request is from 2020. Seems extremely basic and it is worrisome there was no EOY update given last year's promise.

Folders and subfolders and please search functionality within folders that does not pull in content from outside of that specific folder! When I search in a workflow folder I see all workflows (contained in the folder and not) in the results, making the point of using folders useless if there are many.
