Integrations
If you are running a trades or field service business, there is a good chance Simpro is where your operational world lives: quoting, scheduling, job management, purchase orders. And there is a reasonable chance HubSpot is where your sales and customer relationships live.
The gap between them is a familiar one. A lead becomes a customer in HubSpot. Someone manually re-enters the job details in Simpro. The job moves through stages, but HubSpot does not know about it. An invoice is raised, a payment comes in, and your sales and marketing team is still looking at a closed won deal with no idea what happened next.
That gap is where time goes. It is also where data errors creep in, and where your teams end up working from different versions of reality. A Simpro and HubSpot integration fixes that, and it is now easier and more accessible to get started than it has ever been.
Simpro is purpose-built for operational management in the trades and field service sector: job costing, crew scheduling, purchase orders, compliance documentation. HubSpot is purpose-built for sales and marketing: contacts, pipelines, communications, reporting.
They are both excellent at what they do. They are solving different problems for different teams, and they were not designed to share data automatically. The result is that most businesses running both platforms end up with two parallel systems and a manual process connecting them.
That manual process typically looks like this. A salesperson marks a deal as won in HubSpot, then calls or messages operations to kick off the job. An admin re-enters the customer details into Simpro. The job gets done. An invoice goes out. The HubSpot deal record is never updated. The customer calls back six months later, and your sales team has to go hunting through two systems to piece together what happened.
This is a connectivity problem, not a workflow problem.
A properly configured Simpro and HubSpot integration keeps both platforms in sync automatically. The specific data flows depend on your setup, but a standard integration covers:
The integration can be configured as one-way, for example HubSpot pushing new customers into Simpro, or two-way, with both platforms updating each other in real time. The right approach depends on which platform owns which part of your customer lifecycle.
For most Simpro and HubSpot setups, getting the core data flowing does not need to take weeks or require a developer to build something custom. The Integration Fox blueprint integration is designed to get you up and running in minutes. Connect your Simpro and HubSpot accounts, configure your key data mappings, and most of your data will start syncing almost immediately.
It is built for the business owner or operations manager who knows their platforms but does not want to spend weeks in a technical setup process. The most common data flows, covering contacts, customers, jobs, and deal status updates, are pre-configured and ready to activate.
For most businesses, that is enough to eliminate the majority of manual data entry between the two platforms and give both teams a shared view of every customer.
The standard blueprint integration handles the standard data flows well. Trades businesses are not always standard.
If you are running a more complex operation, with multiple entities, non-standard job types, specific purchase order workflows, custom Simpro configurations, or a requirement to connect Simpro and HubSpot alongside a third platform such as MYOB Acumatica or NetSuite, the blueprint integration will get you partway there without covering everything.
That is where a managed, custom integration comes in. A custom version can be built around your specific configuration: your data model, your workflows, your edge cases. It may include:
Hanlon Plumbing is a good example of what this looks like in practice. After integrating Simpro with MYOB Acumatica through Integration Fox, they are syncing hundreds of transactions a day with updates every 15 minutes. The manual overhead that previously consumed staff time is gone, the data accuracy that enables their reporting is there, and the business has continued to grow without outgrowing its systems. You can read the full Hanlon Plumbing story in our case studies.
The honest answer is that it depends on your complexity.
If you are running a relatively standard Simpro and HubSpot setup and your main goal is to stop manually copying customer and job data between the two platforms, start with the blueprint. It is fast, it is accessible, and it solves the core problem without any technical setup or ongoing management overhead.
If you have a more complex data environment, with multiple platforms, non-standard configurations, specific workflow requirements, or a need for deep custom field mapping, talk to the team. A custom integration scoped around your actual setup will deliver more than a template solution can, and the managed service means you are not responsible for keeping it running.
Either way, you can start small. Most businesses get their core data flowing quickly, validate that it is working the way they need, and layer in additional complexity from there.

Does Simpro integrate with HubSpot?
Not natively. Simpro is built for operational management and HubSpot for sales and marketing, so they do not share data out of the box. Integration Fox connects them, either as a self-deploy setup or as a fully managed build.
What data syncs between Simpro and HubSpot?
Contacts and customers, deals and jobs, job status updates, invoices and payment status, sites and service locations, and custom fields.
How quickly can we be up and running?
For a standard setup, the blueprint integration gets your core data flowing in minutes. A managed build scoped around a more complex configuration takes longer and is quoted after a scoping conversation.
Do we need a developer?
No. The blueprint is designed for a business owner or operations manager to set up, and a managed build is handled entirely by our team.
Is the sync one-way or two-way?
Either. One-way might mean HubSpot pushing new customers into Simpro. Two-way means both platforms update each other in real time.
When do we need a managed build instead of the blueprint?
When you have multiple entities, non-standard job types, specific purchase order workflows, custom Simpro configurations, or you need to connect a third platform such as MYOB Acumatica or NetSuite alongside the two.
What happens when Simpro or HubSpot releases an update?
API maintenance is included as standard on managed builds, so platform updates do not break your sync or become your problem.
