While I cannot say any scenarios where Khoros wouldn't be useful (when it comes to social media moderation), I can say it is very well suited for clients who have time constraints on their work. With the speed Khoros can pull in new content, we see issues for the client almost immediately.

Opensend is a very trusted data partner that identifies anonymous visitors to your site so that you can re-engage them. We were unaware just how much untapped revenue was just sitting on our site with our current site's traffic and it was extremely eye opening for us. Since installation we have added over 69k emails to our list and generated over $200k in revenue, all with this simple set-it-and-forget-it tool.

Their algorithm for profile engagement could be improved. Sometimes the overall engagement of profiles sent from Opensend is rather low (to be expected). They've been great about resolving that problem, so it's really a non-issue.
There is no product like Khoros. Our company lives and dies by the analytics, and to date, we have not seen a more comprehensive analytics structure for any social media management tool. Khoros support is also fantastic, responding and resolving any and all questions, ideas, or complaints, usually in 24 hours.
Khoros Marketing is very user-friendly and easy to navigate. The calendar visibility is the view I use most so I can see all posts going out on all of our channels. It allows us to time posts in a proper cadence so we don't overlap with other pressing content.

Super easy to use and implement, great customer support, the quality of the emails that Opensend provides is much higher than that of their competitors, which helps with deliverability and revenue. IT also makes sure that we aren't sending emails to unengaged users. I've tried all of the platforms of this kind, and Opensend is the best one!

• We still experience a bit of downtime and slowness here but things have drastically improved in the last year with their feature updates and reconfigured hosting.
Khoros has greatly improved the performance of its SaaS products in the last 5 years. Their applications, including Conversations, Intelligence, and Experiences, all load quickly with real-time data. This performance is critical to provide meaningful, social customer support, and marketing. The performance maintains integrity even when you deploy powerful integrations like Salesforce Customer Relationship Manager.
Overall, support does a great job and is timely in their responses and efforts. We have had to contact support many times due to the Capture app. Some tickets have remained open for months, while others get resolved quickly. I understand this is not always up to support and they often have to wait for their engineering team to fix issues that we identified, but it's difficult to deal with issues that are affecting our workflow, especially for extended amounts of time.

• As a very early customer, we did not undergo formal training but worked closely with the team to get the system set up to do what we wanted. However, online training resources are now available with many blog posts / video lessons and tutorials.
it is important to note that my perspective is not necessarily common - I'm a geek/nerd/poweruser in general, so I found the online resources to be more than adequate (and often very aesthetically pleasing, too). That said, a less "geeky" person might struggle a bit.
The implementation team from Khoros were great - they worked hard to understand our somewhat complex organization, and were with us all the way through face to face meetings, user training, and technical training. We had a clearly defined account manager and implementation manager, who worked really effectively together and with us.

At the time of purchase, Khoros met a specific technical need that other vendors couldn't provide for us. Now, however, Sprout Social has this same capability, and Khoros is massively inferior to it on everything but price and some minor UX issues. At this point Khoros seems to be lagging badly behind most competing products
I've selected Opensend between others because they're unique in their own dashboard and also the ways of identifying potential leads. It helps us clarify how big of an audience we have and also the content we're consistently posting/promoting. It's really good overall

Again, I am a fairly new employee to The Social Lights (I've only been here for 11 months) and I am also fairly new to the workforce (I've only just graduated from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities) so it's hard for me to talk too much about the scalability of businesses; however, I feel like this would help
