ChurnZero is a better fit out of the box for our business in terms of its features, functions, usability, scalability, serviceability, and costs. We really wanted a customer success platform that doesn't take a long time to deploy while being flexible enough to allow us to …
HubSport is quickly turning into a secondary platform for us. HubSpot functions much more as a task-oriented, call-as-much-as-possible, Sales system. Churn Zero far outpaces HS with its AI to summarize the account, and its ability to bring in outside data from Pendo, ZenDesk, …
We selected ChurnZero based on price and having the functionality we needed for right now. Gainsight had more features, but at a much higher cost and these features weren't necessarily items we needed to get ourselves up and running now.
This is my first time to be working off the Customer Success platform on a day-to-day basis. While I have not had the chance to work closely with other Customer Success Platforms, I would love to experiment with Planhat sometime due to the favorable reviews I have come across …
ChurnZero has been the only customer success platform that I've personally ever used and within the 2 companies I've worked for that have implemented CZ, only the CSM team had visibility. The main source of information for everyone else was either NetSuite or Salesforce (or our …
Churn Zero has a better churn score feature and is easier to navigate. Churn zero has segments and plays and much better walk through functionality as well.
ChurnZero's strength in our case is the segmentation and ability to calculate customer health scores (ChurnScores). These ChurnScores can then in turn trigger automation which makes it very easy for us to spot high risk accounts. Our other systems are great in their own way, …
It literally offered everything we needed: client satisfaction scores, automation, in-app announcements, integration with all our in-house systems and usage analytics. Plus, the integration is so good I find that the Churn Zero platform is the only place I need to log in now. …
I think ChurnZero more than holds it own with other products I have used in the past. Their user interface, automation options, data collection, and display match or exceed their competitors. Having said that, what sets them apart is their ability to listen to their clients, …
Compared to Gainsight, ChurnZero is much more user-friendly and quick to adapt to my day-to-day. It allows for much easier integration with third-party platforms in order to get our data into the ChurnZero and allowing our team to move forward. Additionally, moving through Gains…
We used Amity and Churnzero has direct integration with Quickbooks, very helpful. I evaluated client success but the functionality of ChurnZero was by far more robust. Lastly, the client success process itself of Churnzero puts them head and shoulders above the competition.
Both Strikedeck and ChurnZero fit our needs. We choose to go with ChurnZero because it had a simpler, more intuitive interface and better pricing. After we purchased we also learned that their implementation team is very cooperative, even [beyond] our expectations. We are glad …
I used Salesforce for opening and tracking customer support requests at another company. The key advantage Zendesk has over Salesforce is that Zendesk is designed specifically for customer support management and it's easy to get started right out of the box.
If you are a SaaS business with a high volume of customers, having ChurnZero is a must. If you have a subscription based business and a customer success or account management function in your company, I would highly recommend ChurnZero.
One specific thing I love about Zendesk Suite lately is the ability to use AI "Enhance writing" it allows me to freehand a response and then have it help me sound more formal or friendly, this is very useful, not only for those free handed ones, but also when you need to repeat the same information to a customer, it can help you make it sound slightly different. I don't like that when a ticket comes, even if you have the shortcut to toggle between chat and email, it doesn't actually toggle.
ChurnZero has excellent customer success! They worked very hard to ensure a successful implementation and launch.
The CZ platform gives a detailed view of customer usage. We know exactly how clients are using our platform which allows us to provide excellent customer success services. This allows helps our product team understand the needs of clients and the success of new features.
We are able to create plays based on usage which provides a customized and personal experience for each user. CZ makes it possible to give our clients what they need when they need it.
When composing an email out of segments, the ability to save it as a draft to review later would be awesome, instead of needing to set up a Play
In the admin section, I love that we can have a color palate - but we'd like the color palete to be applied in other areas so CZ has more of our companies branding
The content templates can be hard to stylize if you don't know html
Add the Merge Fields functionality to tasks, especially tasks made by playbooks
Our team is very happy with the product after evaluating multiple vendors, including Gainsight, Totango and Planhat. We like the additional functionality that CZ offers on its enterprise version. We were strongly considering other products if the price was right and functionality worked, but the change management would have been too heavy and taken too long. The ChurnZero team has been a good partner to rely on and allowed us to free up our time and resources to focus on more pressing matters
Zendesk is an amazing tool for communicating with your customers easily. The communication tickets from sellers to us or from us to sellers are stored, and there are statuses used to make communication easy. We have internal conversations between departments, linked with useful software such as Zingtree, Talkdesk, and Webs.
ChurnZero makes my work life a complete game changer. I say it all the time ChurnZero is a one stop shop for data! I don't fumble through numerous different programs, try to remember different passwords, I literally login to CZ and it is right there in front of me
Zendesk Suite is a straightforward solution that provides agents with everything they need on the same screen. Allowing an agent to navigate one tab, one screen and switch between features, pin favorite features while viewing the customer profile and details in 360degrees. A view like this empowers agents to support customers better and in a more composed state.
I recently had the opportunity to interact with ChurnZero's customer support team, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. Their responsiveness and willingness to solve problems are exemplary. From the moment I reached out, their team displayed a level of professionalism and dedication that truly stood out.
We rarely need to contact their support team, but when we do they are responsive. However there have been notable times when communication between myself and the support rep was challenging despite me providing clear explanation of the issue, screenshots, and a thorough explanation of the goal we hope to achieve. It took several back and forth attempt, on a few occasions, to get resolution on an otherwise simple request
The training and onboarding have been very helpful. Since I was not a part of the team when ChurnZero was implemented, it was important to get brought up to speed as quickly as possible and our CSM has been incredibly receptive in that regard.
Zendesk has tons of available material for training - videos, webinars, articles, etc. The only reason this is not a 10 is because it can be hard to figure out how to navigate to these things and find what you are looking for.
I implemented CZ in 4 months. When I look back, this is not a long time where I needed to get to know CZ by myself (as I did not have knowledge of it at all..) study the Academy, playing around in the test environment and setting up in live environment.
I was very satisfied. They have a free trial for 30 days and I recommend you do that and use it. It is very easy to get started with the basics and the build on over time.
The only thing technically complex was single sign-on and integration to Salesforce.com required some tweaks – otherwise setting up system was very easy
Gainsight CS - you need a team to manage this tool; not intuitive to use, and you're not able to be as agile once configured GUIDEcx- One of my favorites in the space, and so easy to set up, configure, customize, and scale. Able to connect onboarding milestones to SFDC cases, and share out as a customer portal. Mixmax has been purchased in past companies to help fill in gaps of other tools (gives us scheduling links, in-inbox email templates, SFDC lead/contact and task management)
Zendesk Suite is exceptionally user friendly and highly customisable. Free training for all levels and roles of users which is easy to follow and engaging for users is particularly helpful along with the added support behind the scenes from Zendesk support and the Zendesk community is second to none.
