[HubSpot Academy is] just a great tool for everyone who wants to grow at their Marketing, Sales, or customer success career. Their courses are very detailed in information, their teachers are the best in the industry, and it's just easy to take some time and learn. I have enjoyed it a lot.

Usability
No answers on this topic
For HubSpot Academy's usability, I rate it a 9 because it is very simple and easy to use. HubSpot Academy is very user friendly. You can pick a category like "email marketing" then you will have an intro video, follow up detail videos, practice quizzes, interactive practices, and some sections have a certification quiz at the end. It is very easy to navigate sections. The only reason I rate the usability a 9 instead of a 10 is because sometimes HubSpot Academy does not register the interactive practices.

HubSpot Academy is great for training on the HubSpot CRM. Like stated in pervious questions, it is very simple and easy to use. It is the best way to train for using HubSpot because there are videos and practices for every topic like email marketing, workflows, etc. I personally think HubSpot is much more user friendly than Salesforce. However, we do use both and like both for different reasons but I think HubSpot is simpler to use.
