Planhat vs. UserIQ

For someone working in the Customer Success team, Planhat is a must-have software. All your client-level data can be easily managed, stored, and reviewed at any point in time by Planhat. It also helps the management and the leadership team better see each account and its usage. It also helps in identifying potentially risky customers and taking the required actions to engage and retain the account. It also gets integrated easily with other meeting recording tools wherein the summary from the tool gets easily synced with Planhat

• Reporting - you can set up filters with boolean criteria to give you insight into everything you need to know.
• Playbooks - these are very good for less-experienced CSM's who need a step-by-step guide on how to deal with different stages of the customer lifecycle. More experienced CSM's may not need the playbooks.
• Usage data for customers - there's a wide range of charts in Planhat that tell the story of client consumption.

• Some interesting dashboard views and you can slice users/accounts many different ways.
• Pretty user-friendly interface.
• Easy to collect qualitative data (nps, survey, etc.).

• Allow for cc'ing of AEs or others within the same organization from the messaging center. When I went to send a message from within Planhat, I had to manually type out the AE's email address every time if I wanted them cc'd.
• The fonts were funky if I went to add text into an existing email template. For example, if I added in an extra sentence or paragraph, in Outlook on the recipient's end, the font was different despite looking the same within Planhat. Gmail was all consistent, Outlook was showing a different font.

• Getting the hang of the walkthroughs took me awhile and was hard for me to understand, but now I understand and love them!

It takes a while to learn Planhat even for experienced users. It has limitations in terms of what data you can present where, but its important to set internal guides outside Planhat as well so everybody working collaborative. But as CSM Planhat is a great- and critical tool which I use daily to optimise my work schedule and customer interaction with various topics.

This rating is given as to a certain degree it is useful - as in the customer health dashboard and providing a very fast service which is easy to use for our users. However, as mentioned prior, the exportation of this data into presentable information (presentation style) is not really possible without doing yourself via screenshots and interpreting the data.

The support team couldn't be better. They are quick to respond, very helpful, and thorough. Our CS manager was always happy to schedule calls to go through specific feature queries and she ensured we had a smooth and quick setup.

Customer service and support is one of the biggest strengths for UserIQ, whenever there has been any issues or confusion, the help service is very effective and friendly to support us and get to a conclusion within no time, hence why the ranking given is extremely high for this factor. I would not say any improvement is needed in terms of this aspect of the company.

I was not the person involved in choosing Planhat, but it seems to me that Planhat is much better suited to an account management style role, whereas Hubspot is closer to a sales CRM instead. In my position, Planhat is better suited as it is more graphical, more flexible, and easier to find information on.

When comparing with the other product of the market we realize UserIQ brings the best outcome beneath the price so we choose UserIQ apart from other products.

• Planhat has, for the first time, given us a 360-degree view of all our customers and access to all the different types of communication we have with them across different departments and functions.
• The ability to automate workflows, tasks, and assign playbooks to the various phases of our customer lifecycle has aligned all our departments.

• UserIQ has let us communicate more effectively with our customers. We have seen a reduction in calls to customer service on how to utilize and update items on our SaaS UI.
