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.

. CRM integration will be only done post-implementation and the telephony tool which has only 1 feature of dialing calls manually and getting them logged.2. The caller ID (user-dedicated contact no.) will not support text msg and WhatsApp integration. In case you wanted to connect with a prospect on Whatsapp, you have to do it on your own but there are some complexities involved and not very feasible. With very limited permissions access of the telephony tool, I found the user interface very simple and easy to use wrt to the other tools we evaluated previously.2. Also, after the discussion, I found that call disposition is easier in desktop wrt mobile applications- connected calls will be recorded and logged automatically -for other outcomes you have to log manually (need to confirm this)3. In terms of call drop rates, even with a limited sample size, I can say that it's fairly similar to the drop rates of personal no.. Will give updates on this again after making a few more calls

Pros
Bigtincan
  • I love how easy creating a Brainshark and their formal learning is to use. Upload an animated Power Point, record audio, add music, or use videos etc.
  • Their formal learning also keeps track of people in classes, allows us to invite people to a curricula, send notifications when classes are added, and update on the fly without having to resubmit all new classes.
  • I also love that people in classes can run their own transcript and see where they are in a program, and if graded how they scored.

  • Brainshark has addressed a number of feature enhancements over the past two years...it really performs at a high level on a consistent basis...
  • Ocassionally we run into a large video file >500mb that we have to address directly with support but it does not happen very often...

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.

There are a lot of sites that allow you to host/share content in the loud. What won for me was their tracking, analytics, and reporting. At the time there was nobody even close to Brainshark and I have not seen anything since that would make me want to switch. I look forward to many years working with them.

Of all the tools we explored such as Salesken, Slintel, Call hippo, we have finalized on Slintel for the simple reason that its user interface is one of the best and the overall features provided by Salesken is also something that solves our day to day needs perfectly. The pricing structure also played a key to some part. The call metrics dahsboard also made an impact when we were about to finalize our decision.

Return on Investment
Bigtincan
  • Client satisfaction - we send out summaries of our big webcasts/conference calls via Brainshark. We've received lots of replies stating they love the format because they can consume the information on their own time.
  • Time to market - before Brainshark, it took several days, if not weeks to work with a design team to get professional-looking summaries available. Now, we have the process down to a day or two.
