How event•hapily Helps HubSpot Shine

Built natively for HubSpot, event•hapily brings your data and processes together while giving your events team the flexibility to unlock HubSpot's full potential.

If you're using HubSpot to try and plan events, you're probably all too familiar with the struggle —disconnected data, clunky third-party integrations, and missing insights where you need them most.

event•hapily changes the game by supercharging HubSpot's event capabilities, so you can plan, track, and report on events without messy workarounds.

Let's check out the differences between native event management with event•hapily, and trying to wrangle HubSpot on its own to accommodate your event needs.

Here's how it works:

Powerful workflow actions and backend logic that do all the heavy lifting around the nuanced art of registration management.

event-hapily-cms-module

event-hapily-data-cloud

No Way to Handle Sessions Out of the Box

HubSpot does not have a "Session" Object, and Marketing Events do not have any kind of configurable Sessions.

Dedicated Session Object Makes Sessions a Breeze

A dedicated Session Object ensures each session is individually managed and represented in HubSpot.

No Built-In CMS Modules or Pages for Event Promotion
