You can customise it to do what you want to do. Put in the work to learn the back and end and build your own guest journey. You are not limited like other competitors to how the guest flow goes, you build your own. Support are great in helping with this and always attentive

Sprinklr Service has always been well-suited for all of the work we do. As it's all social media content, and most require responses or escalations, Sprinklr Service covers all of that. The only time I think we wouldn't need it is if we were working with a much smaller client who didn't need us to have eyes on so many platforms at once.

Cons
Akia
  • Intergrate with PMS payment methods, not only offer their own
  • Look at how it can be used better to manage the daily operation
  • Communicate between staff members in a SLACK like manner

  • I find it difficult to dive into analytics for each social post. The reporting tool gives me an overview of the channels but I would love to look at a breakdown of each post performance.
  • You currently can't add closed caption subtitles to videos uploaded through Sprinklr so this results in having to revert to the native platform.
  • I would love to be able to set up a newsfeed that includes posts from a number of our partner accounts, so I can keep up to date with what they're posting.

As great as AKAI is, its only issue is we cant take payments through our PMS - AKIA is reluctant to work with PMS payments as it wants to take payment itself. If this cant be navigated and other opportunities within our PMS appear that can do what AKAI does, it will force us to move in this direction

The biggest reason we renewed, and kept up with Sprinklr Modern Care is because it is an active community and there is customer buy-in already. They continue to update and improve the product, but more importantly, the customers are using it. It's easy to switch products when it's not an active component in your daily structure, but switching and migrating the data or providing alternatives becomes difficult when customers have grown accustomed to a specific experience. As long as they continue to improve the available features and the community stays active, renewed use will continue.

Usability
Akia
Once you get past the blanc canvas and begin to build, you learn its capability and become ingrossed. Easy, user friendly once you get your head around the set up

I've spent year designing products so I'm a tough judge when it comes to other solutions. It's clear that Sprinklr Modern Care was designed for the average online consumer with a very user friendly interface. They have made improvements to the admin tools to make that area of the product easier to use as well.

No issues with system availability. They manage updates in off-peak hours and I usually don't notice the changes until I log into the system the next day.

Performance is great and is not negatively effecting our processes. We have to make sure it doesn't effect out load times. Not currently seeing any issues with widgets affecting page load times.

Exceptional support. Hopefully they grow enough to have world wide support. Can be problematic being in oposite time zones

I know the Sprinklr conference calls have been helpful, but sometimes submitting a ticket can be a little daunting. In the past, we've included information in screenshots that are then asked for by a member of the support staff. The turnaround time has been between 3 days, which isn't horrible.

Initially its a blanc canvas, once we got our head around that your good. It does take a fair few onboarding sessions to really learn. With the blanc canvas approached AKAI need to remember new buyers will be overwhelmed by this possibly

Basic setup took me less than 30 minutes. This includes initial configuration, putting in the initial content, and getting the look-and-feel customized. The domain routing took the normal lag time any other website or blogging service. The really important thing was to get the user accounts setup and begin seeding the system with content before a public launch.

Much more customisable, does more, team far more ingaging and know what their product can do to build the product to you

First, we had a social studio which was good in terms of functionalities but slow. After that, we had the chance to use Talkwalker & social bakers which were good tools yet not enough compares to Sprinklr

  • Increased employee efficiency: Having a clear, one-stop "shop" where users can leave feedback, ask questions, and find bug fixes or workarounds has saved me (and other community managers at my company) loads of time that was once spent responding to numerous emails on an individual basis.
  • Better customer service: Since everyone in the company is alerted of what's being written on our forum, it's easy to spot a high-priority issue, delegate to the person in charge, resolve it, and respond as soon as possible.
