MagHub is all you need!

Reviewed 2 years ago

It's a great tool for managing tasks, accounts and your time. HIghly recommended

Pros

Ease of use, detailed reporting and tracking. Activity logging.

Cons

The reports function can sometimes be a little tricky. A "new accounts" feature would be great to see to view growth of accounts.

Good Product for CRM & Sales Order Entry

Reviewed 3 years ago

Overall I have had a pleasant experience with MagHub

Pros

I like how everything you need is in one place.

Cons

Sometimes the reporting in the system is very hard to access. Not all reports needed are already in the system. Building one from scratch can be cumbersome.

Vendor response

Thank you for your review of MagHub, we highly recommend checking out our Metabase integration, as it allows you to create the custom reports you want, much easier than trying to access Pivot Tables or SQL!

Great for new publishing companies.

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

The software is intuitive and easy to use. Even my Publisher can use it! It's not clunky as with previous uses of CRM software within the publishing industry.

Cons

Contact names and companies should be hyperlinked throughout the system.

Vendor response

Thank you for your review of MagHub. We are glad that you found it intuitive and performs well for your team. We have also submitted a feature request based on your hyperlink comment!

Higher user-friendly

Reviewed 3 years ago

Didn't take long to learn it and the updates have been common sense.

Pros

It handles everything your 'rollodex' to your emails to clients, through the invoicing stage.

Cons

One email is usually only accessible in one record, therefore some agencies can potentially become a bit messy.

Vendor response

Thank you for reviewing MagHub. We strive to make it the one-stop-shop that manages everything from prospects to paid orders.

MagHub is not for small businesses

Reviewed 2 years ago

It was required of my position to learn and implement. However, it was suppose to decrease the amount of clerical work required to run the company and it has only added to it.

Pros

It allows me to keep records of notes, emails, etc with company name for future reference. Lots of areas for information to be stored.

Cons

It's extremely difficult to maneuver. Not set up for a common sense user. More for a seasoned software exec.

Vendor response

Hi there, thank you for your review of MagHub. We appreciate the feedback you have provided, we have shared this with our Customer Success Team for follow-up.

Great CRM

Reviewed 4 years ago

The support is really great. Everyone has been very helpful at every turn.

Pros

It is clean, well organized, and bug free. It is easy to learn and has a lot of great features. Of all the magazine CRM systems I have used, it is the best.

Cons

There are a couple of features that are obviously needed that are not in the system.

Vendor response

Good morning, thank you for your review of MagHub. As the market continues to evolve, we strive to add new features to benefit our clients. If there are other things out there that you'd like to see submitted, please submit a Feature Request and we'll review it as soon as possible.

Chuck's review of MagHub

Reviewed 2 years ago

Sales management

Pros

I am hoping that this will be the key to keeping our advertising business organized. It has been a challenge to learn, but I am getting there

Cons

The integration of the madrill account has been a real hang up for us. It has taken weeks to get it working. I use another CRM that just allowed me to send and receive right from my existing mail accounts, I prefer that, actually. Glad to share if you want to take a look. That also automatically creates contacts for inbound emails.

Vendor response

Hi there, thank you for your review of MagHub. We understand the system has a lot of moving pieces that can take some time to get up and running (depending on what departments you are onboarding), and we appreciate your patience with the process. Our Support Team is here to assist you every step of the way. We will also reach out to discuss the email situation you are currently experiencing.

It simply works very well for our small publishing business

Pros

I like that its a complete platform that handles and incorporates seamlessly nearly every aspect of our publishing business

Cons

I would like to see the process to set up a new monthly issue on Magbuilder to be simplified. It shouldn't be a multi-step process.

Vendor response

Thank you for reviewing MagHub! Being the one platform to manage a media publishing business is always an important goal for us. We've also shared your feedback regarding MagBuilder with our Product Director, Tom.

Forecasting Management kanban is great!

Pros

The ease of use, especially with Projects, reporting and zone management.

Cons

I would love to see an integration between zones in MagBuilder. If I place an ad in one zone on a particular page, I'd like to be able to just click a button and have it populate in the other zones on that same page automatically.

User likes intuitive design

Reviewed 3 years ago
Pros

MagHub makes is easy for me to update contacts, manage our bi-monthly magazine and update email lists.

Cons

Too easy to make duplicate records and too hard to find them.

Vendor response

Thank you for your review of MagHub, and mentioning how MagHub helps with managing your contacts. Regarding finding contacts, I would highly recommend using the recently updated Global Search with the Contact filter selected, it makes it much easier to navigate the site and find those records that might have been hidden.

Needs more ease of use

Reviewed 4 years ago

Good Live Chat.

Pros

Pretty intuitive, to a point (see Cons below)

Cons

Needing to move to multiple places to accomplish one thing. For example, when needing to edit the price information on an ad you currently have to take a couple of or a few steps when you should be able to do it in one step if the drop down on the ellipses was just expanded.

Vendor response

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your thoroughness. With the additions of Pendo, and other UI/UX updates to the MagHub system, our team is constantly removing additional clicks/steps, but there is always work to be done; especially when we are adding new features nearly every month!

A Necessary Evil, But Hard to Adapt

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

MagHub does everything we need it to do from a CRM standpoint for a publishing company. It checks the most boxes and has great customer service.

Cons

As a smaller publishing company, the software is really hard to adapt and mold to fit our specific needs. It's hard to tell this early into using it whether it will be adaptable as our company grows and changes.

Vendor response

Hi there, thank you for your review of MagHub. As we continue to grow and add new features, we found it was necessary to implement solutions like Pendo and reoccurring webinars to lighten the burden of getting onboard with MagHub. We'll continue checking boxes, and adding the proper collateral to help you through the process. We're glad to have you with us!
