Within the last 6 months, I've run a personal A/B test on opportunities with and without Consensus videos being sent after every meeting. Those opportunities where I sent Consensus videos after every meeting had a >50% likelihood of closing and/or progressed past the Proposal phase. Those opportunities where I did not send Consensus video, I was left unanswered more often than not

  • The ability to tailor demos and demoboards to show various functionality of the product.
  • We appreciate the features Consensus has to customize demos in various forms.
  • The customer service and post-sales trainings the Consensus team has held for our company have been extremely beneficial. I personally appreciated learning how demos are better received when they're not 'perfect'

  • The front-end UX could be improved to look and feel more like a mature SaaS solution
  • There's a limited amount of help resources to assist throughout the video building process
  • I'd like to see more integrations with broader SaaS solutions to unlock more use cases (i.e. Engaging in group formats, long-form webinars, etc)

In the very early stages of prospect education, you can send videos to get them familiar and up to speed with our product without a solution consultant's involvement.

Consensus has a pretty flat learning curve. It took me all of 24 hours to understand how to navigate through the application and probably another 24 hours after that to begin to show my colleagues how to use the application as well. Consensus also has a great Ux/Ui interface that allows for easy usability

We did not find a similar solution that could provide the prospect experience Consensus provides. We did not seriously evaluate any other platform like we did with Consensus. Consensus allows your prospects to select their interests and only show them the relevant parts of your product. No other software we evaluated could do it like Consensus
