Have just been cleaning up our Dashboards and deleted 20+ dashboards that have accumulated over the years that nobody ever uses.

Two things I love about the Delete process:

Reminder that you can use Deal Lists in HubSpot Deal Views.

Handy for filtering a view of Deals using advanced criteria (eg a List that joins on associated objects).

Reminder you can easily control what shows in the HubSpot Timeline.

I often remove Workflow and List activity to reduce the noise.

Also, use the Expand/Collapse option eg to easily review all emails you've sent to a contact.

I'm not going to say this is the most useful thing in HubSpot dashboards, but it is kinda interesting... (and thanks to Marie who alerted me to this ages ago)

You can embed other HubSpot tools into dashboards.

Not much difference in HubSpot between:
Marketing > Forms > Analyse
versus:
Reporting > Marketing > Channel > Forms

Reporting path allows comparison on the graph, and list up to 100 without paging.
Forms path has visual bar for the submissions which is nice.

I think the Minified Global Search beta is one of my favourite 'it's the little things' updates of the past few months from HubSpot.

I say this because when I go into a portal that doesn't have it I immediately want to turn it on...

Reminder about HubSpot Bot Filtering
I can't really think of a good reason not to have this on...
(Occasionally we come across portals - usually older - that don't have this on, worth double checking yours)

Reminder you can use associated objects on HubSpot workflow triggers.

(You can also branch within workflows using similar criteria)

Simple example in the screenshot, to trigger on Deals for specific Companies.

Reminder about using associated objects in HubSpot workflow actions

You can add associated objects as data sources in Workflows, and use them in the Edit Record action

Simple Ticket workflow example that updates a property on the ticket with the Company & Contact details

Sometimes the feedback from Detractors in HubSpot surveys is super handy - it can highlight the real pain points for listeners (or customers or prospects etc).

Simple example from a HubShots podcast survey below.

Little tweaks to enriching data keep rolling out. eg you can enrich a List in HubSpot.

The HubSpot Workflow Action to add a Note is kinda nice.
(It's been live for a month or so now.)

Works on the main objects (contacts, companies, deals, tickets - also leads) but not custom objects (yet).

More on Slack notifications from HubSpot - this time via Workflows.

Lots of flexibility here (simple example via a Company workflow):

Quick reminder - you can now set your default email address to use within HubSpot (eg on Ticket replies, Deals, etc).

(Thanks to Roselen for this one)

A reminder (thanks Ian) about Quick Filters in HubSpot.

Very handy, especially for filters that have ranges, since you can very quickly tweak them.

Plus I love how they stay as part of the View.

A reminder that you can tailor your HubSpot notifications very specifically these days.

eg I like getting new ticket notifications in Slack (which I check regularly), but any updates via Email (which I only check a few times during the day).

HubSpot Deal Lists are handy.

And especially when you can join on just about any associated object (including custom objects).

eg Simple Line Items example

Not having much luck with AI Forecasting in HubSpot so far - getting this message (screenshot from our own portal) in the (admittedly few) client portals we've enabled it in so far as well.

Reminder you can set up HubSpot workflows to send annually (and other schedules).

Simple example: automate sending out your New Year offers.

Another handy HubSpot update - you can right click on a column heading (eg in a View) and easily add (or remove) columns.

Simpler than using the Edit Columns button at the top right.

(Remember to Save your View after if you want to keep it.)

A reminder about getting Slack reminders in HubSpot.

I quite like how granular you can make the out-of-the-box 'Other App' notifications (eg Slack) in HubSpot.

eg to get Task Reminders:
