I was pleased overall with the product and the service. I feel the product continues to evolve to serve the needs of CS management, the CSMs and other functions in the organization such as Sales.

Pros

I had recently rolled out Gainsight at our organization. The tool is extremely powerful and allowed us to take advantage of our unique data model to achieve business outcomes. This included getting more visibility into the health of our customers and the ability to send targetted emails with dynamic data to our customers.

Cons

The recorded training was very long and painful. This needs to be improved.
There are some strange glitches and lack of user alerts that can be very annoying. The good news is that the Support and CSM team are extremely helpful.

I am very happy because I can finally manage my clients in an easy way, check their customer journey status, they health, the notes from previous calls and the interactions.

Pros

It is super flexible. The reporting capabilities as very advanced, the support team is always able to help, and it's possible to get anything important in a couple of clicks. The interface is clear and easy to understand.

Cons

The tool is very powerful so it's not so easy to use at first. There are so many components that could make your life easier, and it's important to carefully go through the documentation (spending A LOT of time) to be able to understand how it works. Don't try to use it without having studied, it will be a terrible mistake

Reasons for Switching to Gainsight CS

Overall, I haven’t had the best experience with Gainsight. The onboarding process was poor, the system feels old fashioned compared to the likes of Hubspot, Salesloft and Salesforce, and what features are redeeming about it are complicated to get working due to the nature of the system

Pros

The features offered by gainsight such as the C360 account view, timeline tracker, analytics and CTA rule engine do provide great ability to track and digest what’s going on with our customer base

Cons

The set up is very long winded and not user friendly.

Once you have gotten to grips with how information integrates with gainsight and how to build CTAs in the rule engine it isn’t particularly hard, however there are tons of hidden system limitations and nuances that just make the system feel old, out dated and clunky.

very positive experience so far with Gainsight and I look forward to using and learn more about how to use it in full power in my day to day with customer success tasks.

Pros

I love that we can see how well our customer are doing based in their usability of their dashboard, health score, etc.. every time before I speak to a customer I check insight to get the insights I need.

Cons

I think there is a lot to be explore so have found something that I dont like yet.

So pleased with how effortlessly everything works

Reviewed on 2021/10/28

Pros

I like how simple Gainsight has been to use and implement. We have been able to accomplish more with Gainsight in 3 months than we did with Strikedeck in 3 years.

Cons

The cost is high on a per license basis. Gainsight is very heavy on the resource side when it comes to implementation.
