I'd love to see 2 way synch to google contacts as an option. Many apps use google contacts. For example, Evernote app has a business card scan function. Take a picture of a business card and it can add the details to your phone contacts. This can then synch to Google contacts. By just having the ability to sync from google contacts to Hubspot you gain this business card scan functionality.
If a contact has a new email or phone number, I need this on my phone, so a change in Hubspot CRM should be synched to google contacts.
I consider this to be fundamental, and this functionality exists in the Insightly free CRM - I am surprised I couldn't find a request for this (apologies if I have missed it).
I could not be more excited to report that HubSpot's native Google Contacts sync has now shipped! It is part of the newly launched Operations Hub and is now available to all customers at all tiers of the HubSpot product, including Free (with default field mappings - upgrade to Operations Hub Starter for custom field mappings).
We are currently working on a HubSpot built integration between HubSpot and Google contacts. We would love to get user feedback on how we are thinking about this integration. Please fill out this form if you are interested in providing feedback to our product team.
Hi everyone! I’m Collette, the Product Manager on the App Marketplace team. Thanks for taking the time to post, comment, and upvote this Idea.You can sync your CRM with Google Contacts through PieSync, who recently joined the HubSpot family. A full explanation of how to do so can be found here. We’re working closely with our PieSync team members to make it even easier for you to connect your systems, so keep an eye out for more exciting features!
Hi @dzunker - as of now, integrating a Google Contacts Sync natively into HubSpot is not on the product roadmap. However, one of our integration partners, Import2 has developed a valuable integration here that I would strongly recommend trying out! http://wizard.import2.com/apps/hubspot/.
Thank you to everyone who has commented on this post. I am a member of the HubSpot Product team and am looking to understand how you would use the Google Contacts and HubSpot CRM Sync.
From the postings thus far - I am seeing 2 trends
1) Data consistency
2) The ability to leverage Google Contacts on Mobile
What are the other uses that you would leverage and prefer from this integration to make this a valuable addition to the HubSpot platform?
This is super important to me as well. However, I don't necessarily want to sync all. So an option to sync a contact based on a property setting or settings (i.e. a checkbox) would be ideal.
I got sick of Zapier not being able to solve it. They always responded quickly but just sent me aroud in circles and now I know why. After a week of trying with Zapier, we got nowhere. Within 5 minutes of switching to Automate.io, I had a 2 way create new / modify sync between Hubspot and Google Contacts.
It was so easy with the right tool. Zapier has the big name but they are dropping features (for example the ability to have 2 phone numbers and also to use the google Contact group labels!! **bleep**!!
Don't just focus on Zapier, there are better solutions out there.
Let's not forget that Hubspot should have fixed this in the first instance and not left it to API apps to tidy up their mess.
I am not a coder, I am a Sales Person. But smarter people than I are saying, "This is not a hard problem to fix."
I'm tired of waiting for HubSpot/anyone else to provide a reasonable solution.
Just finished a meeting and have agreement with a development team here in Austin build the App. Paying for it myself.
ATT: Everyone interested in a Web Based App to sync Google Contacts to HubSpot:
Custom built for HubSpot & Google
bidirectional and real-time
w/ custom fields
unlimited for cheap
(Cost = not sure yet, but it will be cheaper than everyone else. I just want the costs covered. )
ACTION:If you want in, Email me to get on the list of users = hspotsync at gmail dot com
n.- HubSpot Brass, if you want to fund this or will build it yourself (and get it done in the next 3-6 months) let me know so I can get back to my real job.

I'd like to sync Hubspot Contacts with Google contacts. What's the hold-up? Everyone else does this already except Hubspot.
If there are additional features beyond that I'm sure that could be worked on over time, but just get the simple sync taken care of, that's all we really want right now.
