What is it?
You can now manage projects using a new Project object and visualize them with a Gantt chart view, giving you the ability to execute structured project management directly in HubSpot's Smart CRM. The Gantt chart view provides a visual timeline of your records and associated tasks, helping you see how work is progressing over time. You can also use table view and board view.
Why does it matter?
Teams managing cross-functional work often struggle with visibility into project timelines and task dependencies. Previously, managing projects in HubSpot required adapting existing tools, leading to scattered information and misalignment. With native project management in the CRM, teams can track progress, adjust timelines, and keep project data connected to workflows and reporting all in one place.
With the Project object and Gantt chart view, teams can:
- See timelines and tasks in one place
- Track progress and adjust plans as things change
- Keep project data connected to workflows, reporting, and the rest of the CRM
- Align teams around what needs to happen and when
