Brainshark is very user-friendly and it’s very easy to create learning content, even a beginner could walk through it fairly easily. They also have a great support team and help site that can pretty much answer any question with video tutorials.

We are able to reduce non-sales calls by being able to attribute [the source of incoming calls]. But it needs patience and a long time to get the benefits of its AI capabilities. So RoI could be a longer run. It is expensive if we needed a simple call tracking solution only.

• You can Track who watched and how many times your presentation was watched through their tracking service.
• Customer service is outstanding. They will walk you through any difficulties you encounter.
• They are always working and expanding the product to give me ways to engage with my audience

• From an accounting perspective, Invoca makes it easy for us to determine where our call revenue is coming from and what call type generated the paid call.
• Their dashboard is very user-friendly. I like how you can see everything from the top level and see total call volume, commission paid, and conversion rate. But you can easily drill down into each campaign level too.
• Lastly, you can easily create call campaigns and create individual phone numbers. I especially like how we're able to create a ring pool that allows us to track exactly where the call is coming from, and it's not difficult to setup.

• It is not always the SME that wants to narrate so an easier way to invite guest narrators would make the creation process less painful.
• More detailed description of report types. Depending on what output I am in search of, I find myself having select each option until I find what I need.
• An option to insert a slide instead of just adding and having to move it up by repeatedly pressing the up arrow.

• Learning Invoca can be a bit of a challenge, as many items are hidden in various views.
• It does lack the ability to speak with 3rd party software with Zapier
• In certain ways, too much functionality for basic campaign setup.
• They do not try to take a business development role with their users to help them grow their business.

Our customers (internal employees) have expressed desired for online learning and we have received positive feedback on the Brainshark modules used in eLearning and communications. We are also increasing usage at the project level as the word spreads about the benefits of using Brainshark.

BrainShark is great for those with beginner and intermediate level software skills. It doesn't take a programming genius to get up and running with this application.

I'm always able to access Brainshark, whether it is to upload, record, share, download, or view presentations. Whenever I do need to contact someone at Brainshark, there is always someone there. I have never had a problem accessing a presentation and any updates to presentations are viewable immediately.

We've found a few glitches and needed some branding updated. Each time we've called, they were super responsive and cared about my issue as much as I did! They've even helped me (and another vendor) figure out how to have this other outside software integrate with theirs to achieve an even greater presentation. I'm super impressed with their Customer Service people.

Invoca's client success team is great to work with, which is a nice value proposition for their business (many SaaS providers struggle with this). Their support team is very talented and fully capable of addressing the vast majority of questions that they receive. I haven't encountered any negative experiences when requesting assistance.

The training is easy to use. You can take as little or as much as you need. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. There is a variety of training you can take. There are mini lessons, courses, and webinars. The folks at Brainshark truly want to help you have the best presentation possible.

Their ongoing support after implementation is excellent and easy to access...

Most systems we looked at only housed training you already had or bought... or you could buy their training, but they did not offer a way to build your own training AND keep it updated and house it in a logical way. I what we use in Brainshark as two parts (and we don't use it all - such as the Coaching module) one for creation and second for delivery... and delivery offers two parts. One off's... links that we can add to newsletters, websites etc, and then their Rapid Learning Portal for more formalized learning. Brainshark gives me what I need to create AND deliver trainings, webinars and even holiday wishes. Plus they are big enough to offer service and tech help to the field... I don't have to do it all myself... as well as a Customer Success Manager for quarterly updates, help and training, monthly reporting on usage, training webinars and an whole knowledge base and author and administrator training online. If you only have a person or hand full of people creating your training... it is easy to use and get lots of content out to the world!

We used Convirza for a long time and had a pathetic experience as we were paying a high price for nothing special. Convirza was not so good in call tracking and had fewer features as compared to Invoca, and Invoca’s price is also amazing. It has all the essential features that we were looking for, like call scheduling and call recording, that are essential for marketing campaigns too. Its reporting dashboard is our least favorite thing about it.

• Since we implement how Brainshark is used we have found several areas where it has a significant impact...the first is the ability for any three step distributor to build a supplier / manufacturer content library that can be utilized by their B2B sales group
• Brainshark's survey and question tools are an excellent way to solicit feedback from both internal and external audiences...
• Brainshark is a cost effective way for retailers and wholesalers to manage store and field level operations...

• It is really useful to set a price you will pay for inbound calls, and let Invoca manage that tracking system.
• We were able to run campaigns that could not have run otherwise because we had the call tracking for those calls.
