We struggle to onboard additional people in Hubspot (e.g. devs that provide Tier 3 support). Reading the hubspot timeline can actually be very hard if you jump on a ticket after there have been many emails going back and forth. A key problem is the inconsistent chronological order as described here (https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Order-of-Email-Threads-Should-be-Newest-First/idi-p/252411). But you an probably do more for this. Potential solutions: Chronological as in Conversations Inbox Display messages the same way as you do in the conversations inbox. There, you have clear chronology. Show Emails as Chat stlye bloobs Provide an optional setting, that formats the emails rather as chat style message. So every email from us (company) is on the right side in a box and every message from customer(s) is on the left side in a different color. This would need some interpretation of emails (e.g. Zendesk creates a separation line between every message in the emails). Chronological as in Conversations Inbox with Color Code A variant of this would be to keep the email chronological type of display as in the conversations inbox, but color code the messages from them / from us.
