    Great for delivering insight on which personas are engaging with the material shared. If I've had multiple meetings with personas, but they have not engaged with my proposal, I'm now able to understand the priority of our partnership and how it ranks within their other initiatives.

    Responsive (formerly RFPIO)
    Good use cases: - Responding to RFP's especially generic questions that are asked frequently (company size, product info, security posture) - Delegating approvals or questions to appropriate teams where the AI solution is not well positioned to provide a thorough or complete answer - Reviewing previous RFP documents that have been submitted by previous account teams Bad Use Cases: - Struggles compared to other AI tools with contextual deep questions about product functionality - Doesn't seamlessly integrate with tools where our clients submit RFP and require sign ons.

    Pros
    Highspot
    • From an admin perspective, the platform is very easy to navigate, build and launch new content and informational pages for our team.
    • The search feature within the platform is very accurate and does a great job of curating the top content based off of what our reps are looking for.
    • The ability for our reps to hit 'edit in word online' or 'edit in Excel online' is great because our reps don't have to download a doc, edit it and then re-upload into the system. Any changes they make are auto-saved and stored right in Highspot. They can then present straight from the platform.

    • Live collaboration - the ability for multiple experts to simultaneously work on the same RFP.
    • Artificial intelligence - the ability for the product to continually learn what the best answers are and serve them up to our teams.
    • Dynamic branding - the ability for custom brand different templates by vertical, line of business, local branding, etc. with seamless transition.
    • Content review & moderation - the ability for our national content team to bulk review, edit and share content with our teams in a methodical way.

    Cons
    Highspot
    • The mobile platform is not as user-friendly, missing some of the ease of use from a mobile device.
    • The Help section is not as comprehensive or accurate. Often a search yields answers that are not relevant to the issue trying to be resolved.
    • Content can only be sorted alphabetically or by date, it would be useful to be able to sort by author or department as well.

    • Reporting and Analytics is basic, you can purchase advanced analytics though
    • It would have been nice to have a set structure in mind or a example/case study to structure our responses in the most appropriate way, but we are working through that with their stellar support team
    • Really great new features, but expensive

    I love Highspot, it saves me a ton of time every single day. I like how my correspondence looks professional and I know what I'm sending is accurate and company approved. I'm able to add it to an email template in seconds and choose multiple brochures if it fits the information the student wants or requested. I can also customize templates to make them company specific when appropriate

    We'd be sunk without Responsive. The sales motion would slow way down in several places, and that's just unacceptable. AND I love the product. It helps me do my job efficiently. The Responsive team is GREAT. Support is getting better. The Product and Customer Experience Team is so knowledgeable and willing to help with new features and troubleshoot what's going on. It's an all-around great experience. Not to mention starting over - I can't even get my head around that.

    Usability
    Highspot
    It is a very intuitive website with easy navigation. I am also able to search by market name alone to get all the information that I need within that market. It is only as good as the information you place into it, but the naming conventions should be standard across the board.

    Support Rating
    Highspot
    I have not needed any customer support until now, I guess this is because they work on a proactive maintenance of the platform. We have an internal team working with Highspot so if I need help I go to my internal team not directly to Highspot. I have never heard any complaints.

    If I cannot solve a problem, then I reach out to Support and they are ON IT. They always solve the problem and get back to me immediately with an answer. Our customer support person who is assigned to us (we have had several) are responsive and helpful. We have asked them to sit in on meetings and help socialize the tool.

    We were able to complete an RFP during our free trial. We were already leaning toward RFPIO but that pushed us over the edge.

    Dropbox was sufficient for storing content in an easy to access space but, provided us no value beyond that. SharePoint actually made us less productive due to the amount of time our sales team had to spend searching for the right piece of content. Neither solution provided us any analytics as to what content was being used/engaged with.

    Highspot provided us with intuitive content search and organization with the ability to tag keywords, search queries, and fine-tune categorization of all of our content. Highspot also provided us with direct feedback when our customer or prospective customers were viewing content which enabled us to follow-up at the perfect time and was directly attributed to several closed won opportunities. Their Outlook integration is the icing on the top as it allows our sales team to share content, access email templates, and link communication back to Salesforce without ever having to leave the email client. With these features combined Highspot has made me drastically more productive and efficient in my work.

    While others have had a good experience with Qvidian, we unfortunately did not. Our questions were never answered by our Qvidian rep, as we used it the platform had no AI capabilities, and we had very low usage. It didn't serve our needs. Responsive has been incredible in their communication, responses, partnership, and willingness to get our feedback in order to improve the platform
