The Challenge of Data Manipulation - Alexandra: "Once you don't have that single source of truth and the data has to be manipulated externally, you have a problem once you start saying, okay, well, let's take our Salesforce data. We've got to export that... Now you have a massive problem.

Let's say that your company is currently using HubSpot and you're using HubSpot for your CRM and for your marketing automation. Now you're deciding, well, should we start to migrate our CRM over to Salesforce? A lot of our people know how to use Salesforce. This might be a really good thing."
