    I mentioned that during the last two years, a lot of the training we do at my business was impacted, just like a lot of companies. My biggest thing was getting everyone on the same page, and I feel some software does that better than others. With Cloudshare, It allowed me especially to see an accurate snapshot of what was going on with the learning portion of the work that we do by making it easy to digest what was going on in my workplace.

    Homerun Presales
    It is specifically designed for Pre-sales and it's easy to maintain giving a great overview of the information that really matters to our roles. It would be helpful and a time-saver to manage calls, notes, recordings and meetings too, and even links to GDrive repositories or sharepoint

    • POC Management: The Evaluation Plans feautre ensures that we follow a clear and consistent process, so that we can track progress across each opportunity.
    • Feature Gaps: This is one of the most valuable aspects of Homerun Presales Platform. Having the ability to identify missing product features and more importantly quantify the potential revenue at risk because of them has transformed the way we interact with the product team. We can now bring data-driven insights to discussions instead of just regular feedback.
    • CRM Integration: Homerun Presales Platform can be syncrhonized with Salesforce, which allows us to grab the information we need from the CRM without the need to duplicate it and push anything that might be beneficial to the broader team back to the CRM.

    • More flexibility in external reporting: Homerun Presales Platform provides solid internal reporting, however, creating external reports can be a bit cumbersome. Right now it takes extra effort to export data to third party reporting tools (e.g., PowerBI), however I got exceptional support from the team to be able to accomplish this task.

    Homerun Presales
    Very easy to use platform, with integrations with other tools allowing data to flow between the different platforms. The real bright spot for Homerun is that it is designed with presales activities and cycles in mind, meaning it was very easy to fit within our existing presales process. Most aspects of the tool are also customizable so you can take what already works in your process and port that over to the tools provided. Within days of our initial training from the Homerun team, it became a tool that our team members use daily

    I just felt that Azure had little to no help on the base tiers, whereas with Cloudshare, I felt a fuller "user experience" as it pertains to getting help when I and when my team needed it. I think that was the biggest and main thing in my opinion. In this software space, sometimes the little things can be the difference in picking one software over the other, and that basically was it for us!

    Homerun Presales Platform is head a shoulders above Salesforce from a Sales Engineering perspective. Homerun Presales Platform independently tracks deal stages, allowing SE leadership to accurately understand the technical side of the opportunity. Homerun Presales Platform provides a clean, easy to use workspace where the important aspects of an opportunity are front and center, and not bogged down inside an outdates, bloated CRM platform.

    Return on Investment
    CloudShare
    • We save time as we can keep virtual classrooms always ready.
    • It may vary according to the usage scenario, but the user interface is comfortable. When you go into a little detail, you may not need counseling for initial use.
    • You can manage the jobs that you would do multiple times on other platforms at once from here.
    • All of these actually give you a profit. Time wasted, less application usage, less resource consumption, etc.
