Data is your businesses secret weapon. But without the right reports, it's just a mess of numbers that'll make your head spin! That's where HubSpot comes in, turning data chaos into clarity... ahh sounds like bliss. Whether you're in marketing, sales, service or ops, these 10 must-have reports will help you make smart decisions, faster.
Marketing is part creativity, part strategy and a whole lot of data driven decision making. But let's be honest - digging through endless numbers isn't exactly the most thrilling part of the job (unless you're a data nerd, in that case, good for you!).
These reports will cut out all the stress and show you exactly what's working, what's not and where you need to tweak your strategy.
When building your report, you can add default or custom campaign properties. You can also use properties from events associated with a campaign's influenced contacts.
Use this to report on:
The new Customer Journey report in Marketing Analytics is the place to quickly find how your contacts progress through your lifecycle stages, what pages led to a form submissions and which meeting generated new leads.
With the customer journey report you can quickly identify any bottlenecks and opportunities and see where your prospects are stuck in and how long they stay in each stage. If leads are spending too much time in the MQL stage without converting to SQLs, it might indicate a need for better lead qualification or stronger nurture campaigns. If meetings are being booked but aren’t progressing into opportunities, it could suggest a need for improved sales follow-ups or better lead handoff processes.
Most marketers guess or follow generic recommendations on when to send emails. But timing is everything when it comes to email marketing. That’s why we built a custom Best Send Time Report in HubSpot—analysing when emails get the highest open and click-through rates based on real engagement data from our audience. Instead of relying on generic industry benchmarks, this report provides data-driven insights tailored to our specific contacts.

You could have the best sales team in the world, but if you're not tracking the right metrics you're literally flying blind. These HubSpot reports aren't just for crunching numbers - they give you real insights to help you close deals faster, forecast revenue accurately and spot bottlenecks before they become problems. Lets' dive into the reports that'll transform the way you sell.
HubSpot’s AI-powered forecasting reports take the guesswork out of sales predictions. Using historical data, pipeline trends, and AI modelling, these reports provide more accurate revenue forecasts than traditional manual methods. They analyse deal stages, team performance, and past close rates to predict future sales outcomes.
The biggest win? Sales leaders get a clear picture of whether they’re on track to hit targets—weeks or even months in advance. This means teams can proactively adjust strategies, double down on high-performing deals, and course-correct before it’s too late.
The Sales Waterfall Report is a visual breakdown of deal progression through each stage of the sales funnel, helping teams understand conversion rates between stages. It highlights how many deals advance, how many drop off, and at which stages sales reps are losing momentum.
The real value? Pinpointing weak spots in the pipeline. If a large percentage of deals are getting stuck or lost in a particular stage (e.g., negotiation or demo stage), it’s a signal that something needs attention—better objection handling, clearer pricing, or improved follow-ups. By using this report, sales teams can optimise their pipeline, boost conversion rates, and create a smoother sales journey.
The sales waterfall report are available in the new Sales Analytics in HubSpot.
The Deal Velocity Report in HubSpot helps sales teams measure how long it takes for deals to move through the pipeline—from creation to closed-won. The best part is that you can view which teams or sales reps take longer to close deals and focus on providing guidance in the right place.
Why does this matter? Speed equals revenue. If deals are stalling for too long in the negotiation or proposal stages, sales leaders can dig into why. Is there a pricing objection? Are decision-makers delaying approvals? By identifying these friction points, teams can streamline their sales process, reduce bottlenecks, and ultimately close deals faster. Faster deal velocity means more revenue in less time and a more predictable sales cycle.
The sales and deal velocity reports are available in the new Sales Analytics in HubSpot.
Customer service is where loyalty is won or lost. You can have the slickest marketing, the best sales team and a product that’s chef’s kiss, but if your support experience is clunky, slow or just inconsistent, your customers won’t stick around.
That’s why service reports aren’t just about tracking tickets - they’re about understanding the customer experience from the inside out. Where are things getting stuck? Are reps overloaded? Are response times creeping up? With the right reports, you don’t have to guess - you know exactly where to focus to deliver top tier support.
Ever experienced customers rage quitting because they just can't get a response fast enough? Yeah, not great. The Rep Availability Report helps you avoid this by tracking when your team is actually online and available to assist.
It shows you who's available, when and how often. If you're seeing gaps, like tons of incoming tickets but not enough reps logged in, it's a red flag that your staffing strategy needs a rethink. Maybe you need to spread shifts more evenly or introduce a chatbot to cover offline hours.
But here's the kicker: this report is also about efficiency. If some reps are "available" all day but barely closing any tickets while others are swamped - you've got a workflow imbalance problem. Use this report to even things out and avoid team burnout, while keeping customers happy with speedy responses.
The Tickets Closed by SLA (Service Level Agreement) Report in HubSpot is essential for tracking how well your support team meets its response and resolution time commitments. This report measures the number of tickets closed within the agreed SLA timeframe versus those that missed the deadline, giving teams a clear view of their service efficiency.
Why does this matter? Customer expectations are higher than ever. If SLAs are being met consistently, it means customers are getting timely support, leading to better satisfaction and retention. On the flip side, if too many tickets are breaching SLAs, it could signal understaffing, inefficient workflows, or the need for automation. With this report, support managers can identify trends, spot bottlenecks, and take proactive steps—whether that’s optimising team workloads, setting up automated responses, or improving knowledge base resources.
At the end of the day, better SLA compliance = happier customers. This report ensures your team stays accountable and delivers service that meets (or exceeds) expectations.
Operations doesn't always get the spotlight, but let's be real - without solid processes, everything falls apart. Sales struggles with inconsistent follow ups, service teams get overwhelmed and marketing? Well, they’re left wondering why their leads aren’t converting.
That's why operations reports are absolute lifesavers. Let’s break down the reports that will keep your business running like a well oiled machine.
Yes, we all use HubSpot's duplicates tool which is a huge help when it come to keeping data and CRM clean. However, HubSpot does not provide any out-of-the-box solutions for data hygiene. That's why we are here to tell you that it couldn't be easier to create one yourself!
A messy, outdated, or inconsistent CRM can slow down marketing, confuse sales teams, and lead to inaccurate reporting. That’s why we’ve built a custom Data Hygiene Dashboard in HubSpot—a centralised hub that keeps track of data accuracy, completeness, and overall CRM health.
Here’s what’s included in our custom-built data hygiene reports and why they matter:
Having these reports in one dashboard allows teams to monitor CRM health in real time, automate data cleanup processes, and ensure that sales and marketing are always working with the most accurate information. A clean CRM leads to better targeting, stronger reporting, and ultimately, higher revenue potential.
For operations teams, the New Meetings Data Source in HubSpot is a game-changer for process optimisation and efficiency tracking. While sales and marketing benefit from insights into lead engagement, ops teams can use this data to ensure that meeting scheduling, handoffs, and pipeline processes run smoothly.
This, along with the addition of a few new meetings properties, has opened some new reporting capabilities. You can now report on:
Teams may have several people joining meetings, like sales representatives, technical experts, and managers. Because users want to make sure that everyone who attends a meeting gets credit for it, regardless of whether they're the host, HubSpot now lets you see who books meetings, who hosts them, and which other internal users are listed as attendees.
Here's the deal; data on it's own it just numbers. But with the right reports in HubSpot you're getting the power to make smarter decisions and get real results.
