    Freshworks Inc
    Chose Freshsuccess
    I highly recommend and prefer using Salesforce over Natero. Salesforce allows me to pull in as many fields into a report as I would like, compared to 14 different fields into Natero. I am able to view and make changes to information much quicker than Natero. I like Salesforce

    Chose Freshsuccess
    Natero is specifically built for customer success, other tools are merely capable of some of its functions. A tool like Pendo does a great job at aiding the product manager and helps to identify features and modules that are popular, but this doesn't translate into customer …

    Any SaaS company that needs to measure and track the health of client and user accounts will find the data provided by Natero extremely useful. If you have a support team that is tracking tickets, to-do-lists, etc. across different platforms, you'll be happy to know that you can consolidate most of those existing workflows into Natero, making this a single platform for your CES team to keep things running smoothly.

    The system is good for Customer Success teams to get started and if all the users are updating it responsibly. There are not many checks and balances in the system so your team will have to be disciplined. The reason why I have not been generous with my rating is only because of the slow nature of support and upgrades to the product.

    Cons
    Freshworks Inc
    • Make set up more self-service. We are changing a lot of systems, and it was challenging to have to coordinate every item with Natero.
    • Automatically triggered emails based on certain usage.

    • The knowledge base with content and videos is still work in progress.
    • The support team was very responsive, but not consultative. I had to create from scratch most of the time.
    • It was confusing to use.

    I think the only thing holding me back from a 10 is the fact that I don't have that next step field and integration seems to break at times.

    When we get issues with Strikedeck, we raise it internally with the Strikedeck admin team. They then contact Strikedeck and raise a support ticket. The turnaround time is quick quick. But from my personal use of Strikedeck, I have only come across few situations where a support ticket is raised with Strikedeck.

    The lower price was why we went with Strikedeck over Gainsight or Totango.
