ChurnZero has become the single source of truth for our client data and is therefore used across departments to share crucial information. This rich and customized database can be queried and filtered using the excellent Segments feature which has the power to consolidate and filter the data you have, to answer real-world business questions.
  • Churn scores, and the ability to have several customized algorithms of score calculations, depending on factors such as the type or size of the client. This allows for accurate client health measurement using data points such as usage, communications, and journeys.
  • The client database can be queried and filtered using the excellent Segments feature, which has the power to consolidate and filter the data you have, to answer real-world business questions.
  • The view of all the data points consolidated in the churn score algorithm allows us to monitor the health of our clients accurately and in a timely manner.
  • The Journeys feature is a great concept, but in reality, it is not very flexible compared to a proper project management tool. I heard this is being improved, but as of today, it’s not quite there.
ChurnZero is well-suited for data consolidation. We used to hold much of the data in spreadsheets and other disparate systems. This meant that although we had the data, we had no way of overlaying it to see what it meant - ie the clients who were at risk of churn. ChurnZero allows us to see this data with context.

We use CZ for managing our customer journeys, especially the onboarding journey. It allows us to identify and address potential issues with customers and prepare them for renewal. It also allows us to segment our customers so that we can mass email certain groups of customers for specific purposes (i.e. new feature releases, offers, requests for reviews etc.). We also use the usage data in CZ to figure out which features our customers are/are not using and as well as if they're using the platform at all.
  • Segmenting Customers for Individual Reachouts.
  • Ability to filter segmentation by pretty much any usage data/metrics/health score.
  • Ability to set up campaigns or 'plays' to automate reachouts and tasks.
  • Additional customization options for how data is displayed inside account details page.
  • Ability to duplicate segments.
Great for automating your onboarding journeys for new customers, mass reachouts for product launches/feedback/reviews, being proactive in recognizing potential churn issues.

We are working to get ChurnZero setup to help us with all aspects of client retention, including onboarding, mid contract monitoring, and renewals. Our client are marketers who run multi channel marketing campaigns and there is quite a bit of client training that goes into the onboarding process. We want ChurnZero to help us track the progress during this phase. We also want to monitor usage post onboarding to make sure that the client gets value from our solution. We would like ChurnZero to help us identify those clients at risk, way before we get to the renewal phase.
  • Tracks upcoming renewals
  • Segments customers based on flexible critera
  • Provides a process to guide clients through a journey
  • Getting information out to the key stake holders in the company in the form of reporting
  • Needs to be easier to setup and configure
  • Dashboards are not very flexible
We have been working to get setup for almost a year now and really haven't had much success. The areas we have trouble in are in getting accurate views of ALL of our clients activities, and then being able to alert the right people at the right time when something important is happending with a client. Right now the alerts and reporting is fairly generic so we are not happen with the information we are getting out.

We are attempting to use ChurnZero to support our client retention, staying ahead of churn, and allowing ChurnZero to inform us of red flags within accounts. We also use it in hopes of bettering the onboarding experience of new clients.
  • Allows the user to automate communications based on client behavior
  • In-App messaging
  • From my experience, the product is not easy to use, even with great minds working, we haven't launched in almost a year.
  • For a Churn software I feel it does not easilly track renewal percentages, this baffles me
  • They do not provide real world working examples that we can model our implementation after, no proof it actually works or recommendations on how to set it up, just theory.
  • In my opinion, it doesn't seem like they even use the product themselves, otherwise we should as a client feel like its working
At this stage, we are pretty unhappy with the investment. It's not just the investment paid to ChurnZero, but also the hours that our team has spent to no avail.

We purchased CZ for obvious reasons, to increase our client adoption and improve their experience. After a year we are still not able to use this product. CZ themselves recognize the problem and agree that they did not support us, do not have other users we can see how the product works, no references, no solutions architects to help. You ask for help in the onboard process and it takes them weeks to respond. I am so disappointed in the decision to implement this product, it has put our company back a year.
  • I don't know yet. After a year we have not been able to implement due to support from CZ. they agree it is their support issue but have not improved the process in any significant way.
  • Lack of onboarding support.
  • Product is so difficult they themselves do not use it to onboard a client. KEY RED FLAG
  • They don't have one client that will be used as a reference. Not one and we have asked them repeatedly.
  • No solutions architects or professional services. Their marketing is good. But the product does not work.
Significantly poor decision to go with this company. It has put us behind one year in our customer journey. They agree that they lack support, knowledge and ability to help clients onboard the product. It takes weeks to get responses from them. In meetings they tell us they understand we are 6 months behind on onboarding and they are hiring to help us. But even with escalations the onboard team has their hands tied. CZ doesn't even use their own products. That says something. And they have not been able to give me one reference to talk to. I am highly disappointed that I used CZ for our customer success platform and we are trying to figure out how to unravel the mess that it has made. Literally impacted our organization significantly.

Customer Success and Onboarding team uses this. It addresses customer behavior scores, all customer communication, and allows our processes to be automated.
  • Integration with Pendo
  • Task automation
  • Visibility of customer data
  • Customer Health Scores
  • Dashboards
  • Email customizability with Plays/In-app
Churnzero has been a great platform for us. We are constantly finding new ways to get more out of it. Unfortunately, we did not get fully engaged with it internally for buying until the last 6-months. Our CSM, Tina is amazing, and Kerry prior was amazing as well. They take the time to understand your business and follow up on tasks/requests diligently.

The biggest feature I used in ChurnZero is the tasks. Both automated and manual- it's great to have everything in one place.
  • Automated tasks based on events
  • Account Health overview
  • Integration with multiple platforms
  • Better training about tools available - I feel I could be using so much more but don’t know how
ChurnZero is super helpful for me to see a snapshot of my account's health. I view specific data points and all the information in one place for each of my accounts, so I don't have to chase around parts of the puzzle each time I want to review.

We use ChurnZero to help our Client Success Team better manage our clients and assist them in getting the most out of our legal practice management software. It has been a game changer for us in learning more about the usage of different features and which ones drive the most adoption of our product.
  • Client Management
  • Proactive Outreach
  • Client Health
  • The sync & configuration could be smoother
  • More ways to track user created data points over time (i.e. sentiment)
  • More dynamic date range filters
ChurnZero is a magnificent platform for better understanding your clients health and to find ways to help them with your product/s. You can get as granular as you want when segmenting the client base to find key insights. The data filters leave something to be desired, as I would like for more options to be able to see trends within our client groups.

ChurnZero has been beneficial to my organization as it does two major things for us. Firstly, it gives us a great (thorough yet brief) overview of our client's usage of our platform so that we are able to determine their likelihood of continuing to work with us. If we identify a problem early we can work to correct it and save the revenue.

The other incredibly helpful thing ChurnZero does is it allows us to set up and run a variety of plays/actions that go out both externally and internally. We use this function to ensure we don't 'forget' to connect with clients for too long and to make sure we are given quick insights as to what is or may be going on. This has been helpful!
  • Snapshot on Client Usage
  • Run plays to connect with Clients
  • Run internal plays to ensure nothing get left behind
  • More Dynamic Flexibility for the ChurnScore
  • Integrate smoothly with our other 'Tools'/platforms
  • It would be cool if CZ could determine if someone is active on platform vs just has it open in a 'background' tab
ChurnZero is great for wanting to know how active or engaged a client is. It is able to keep track of multiple 'actions' and users/organizations can choose how much weight to give each action.

The ability to have emails/outreach automatically go out is also very helpful. We were able to set up some plays to ensure nothing slips through the cracks and since starting those plays nothing has!

ChurnZero helps me keep track of current customer needs and usage of our product. I can form segments and plays based on specific use case criteria that help me reach customers and help me stay in contact with them. We especially like our customized ChurnScores. We're currently building scores to help us get better insight to each section of our product.
  • Insight
  • Details
  • Outreach
  • complexity
  • training
CZ is great for figuring out which customers need out reach outside of a normal touch cycle.

I have a hard time going straight to CZ to do a lot of tasks, a stronger integration with Salesforce would be awesome.

We use ChurnZero to stay in touch with our current end users. We also use it for onboarding trial users and new users. We create alerts based on churn scores to signal when an end user may be preparing to churn so that we can reach out to them in advance before they churn. We are fairly new to ChurnZero, so some things we are still building internally, but we love it. It's very easy to use and the support is great.
  • Create Churn scores
  • Build plays for email campaigns
  • Onboarding new users
  • Building out Churn scores is complicated
  • The ChurnZero Academy is just ok
  • We have had 3 success managers in 6 months
Overall, we are very happy with the software. While there is room for improvement, we are very pleased with it and are glad we took the plunge. It will serve us well as we build out more plays and alerts.

As a Customer Success Manager, I use ChurnZero to keep tabs on my book of clients. The customer health organization by color and score allows me to properly prioritize accounts and create actionable insights. This helps me keep my clients engaged to increase the likelihood of contract renewal and upsells.
  • Automated organization of accounts
  • Filtering capabilities
  • DHC platform usage tracking
  • Unpredictable glitches in account profiles. For example, one of my account profiles populated 0 users, despite no one manually changing this metric from 10.
  • Increase in turnaround time for updates in Salesforce. Normally takes about a full 24 hours, which can make it hard to see if my business partner has already logged something.
  • More user friendly interface for filtering segments. It took me a few months to adjust to the functionality.
I think ChurnZero is great for someone with an existing book of business because it allows the user to monitor changes in account health in real-time. Being able to see usage, NPS scores, and customer communications paints a clear picture of my relationship with an account. I could also see this being a useful tool for sales, because it allows you to create and prioritize tasks, and send out customized, automated emails. Outside of sales, customer service, and anything communication/behavior-based, I don't know if the ChurnZero I use would be effective.

In our organization, ChurnZero is used to monitor client usage, and their journey status, and to also open the lines of communication between teams - to make sure we are servicing our clients in the best possible way throughout their implementation of our software.
  • Tracks client engagement and usage with our product
  • Tracks clients journey between teams
  • Allows us to keep track of various client tasks
  • Interactive 24/7 chat support functionality for all users
  • Ability to delete past contacts, or mistakenly added contacts
ChurnZero is well suited for tracking the client's journey and engagement during the implementation and post-implementation phases. It is less suited for interaction between teams, and the ability to communicate with each other. However, each team has the ability to add notes and comments at various stages of the process which helps keep the lines of communication open between departments.

ChurnZero is equal parts task list, email automation, report builder, and company pulse check. We use it daily to keep an eye on our customers and how well they are utilizing our product especially the deployment of assets which in our case are media pieces. ChurnZero plays a big role in customer retention and upsell through its customizable fields and reports.
  • Email automation
  • Task workflow
  • Report building
  • The terminology is a little strange. What's the difference between a journey and a play? Why are reports called segments? Can be a bit confusing at first.
  • It's customizable to a point. But there are small differences between businesses that are sometimes hard to capture.
  • Sending email through ChurnZero is great, but it's also hard to find the trail again in gmail.
I really think every CSM at a SaaS company should have ChurnZero. I love the alerts I get for under-utilized products, for upcoming renewals, and in general its ease of use. I don't think ChurnZero makes sense for companies that are non-SaaS. Not sure how its features would solve for non-SaaS businesses.

Churnzero is helpful for us to maintain unified data for all of our customers and a 360-degree view of our customer data. It helps us make automation flows to our customers so that our communication can be done efficiently. We are very happy with ChurnZero and its services.
  • Integration
  • data points capturing
  • automation
  • integration
  • more customization
  • reporting
Integration and ease of access to data are plus points for ChurnZero. UI can be managed well since it is very basic. Reporting is not very impressive and needs to be worked upon. Overall the tool seems satisfactory but still needs a lot of modifications. Very old style UI

We use ChurnZero mainly to better manage our customer information, journeys, experiences and relationships. CZ has also been extremely instrumental in running the NPS campaign and process globally. CZ is a great tool for remote, distributed global customer success teams to come together and serves as a single, uniformed source of truth for standardizing processes on a global scale.
  • Bring visibility to both details and important milestones
  • Great visualization of data and the possibility to drill down to great depth if needed. So, it goes from the big picture to the needed nuances
  • CZ performs great for integrations to other software tools.
  • I value CZ Academy resources and the way they can bring together a group of people with the same passion and purpose for customer success.
  • At first, it is difficult to get the hang of it and there are so many fields and different paths for a similar process. It takes time to strengthen the muscle memory to get really good at using it.
  • Customer onboarding is easy and agile, but you always expect the most and have an extremely high bar for a brand named Churnzero, right. Mostly even the highest expectations are met.
  • Sometimes in their effort at Churnzero to be proactive the use and interruption of their chat box feature can be a nuisance.
ChurznZero (CZ) is very well suited for global, distributed and remote customer success teams that work in the SaaS start-up environment. They get it, this is their playing field and they have a great platform with useful features that contribute to both time efficiency and process eficacy. The tool will only be as good for your company as the effort you make to name a champion to deploy it and the time investment you make in learning it. If you are serious about fighting churn and are willing to make a commitment for over one year to learn how to use CZ then this is the perfect tool for your organization. After 1 year you will experience its complete capabilities and would have reaped both the short term and long term benefits. It is a tool that needs to be both built in your culture and built up constantly.

ChurnZero empowers our CS team to have a healthier work-life balance. Because we are able to automate tasks, see information at a glance, and track vital data, it allows CSMs to focus on customers and provide proactive support. It cuts out human error while also letting us do more with the same amount of people. The data that is collected by CZ also helps us create strategies for the future that we did not have a great way of accessing before.
  • Automation
  • Data Collection
  • Data Analysis
  • Mitigate Churn
  • Outdated product design
  • Tedious playbook creation
  • Time to onboard
ChurnZero is an incredible tool that I use daily as a CSM. The platform integrates with every tool I use (Salesforce, Outlook, etc.) and provides insightful data. It allows our CS team to automate tasks, emails, and stay proactive in communicating with customers. ChurnZero Academy was very helpful in learning how to navigate the platform and utilize the tool to its full capacity.

For this year our focus is to put all customer info in one place as this did not exist in my company. With ChurnZero we found that tool and way more, as we found out all the processes we can automate with it.
  • Automate your proecesses
  • Complete overview of projects and customer life cycle
  • Nice reporting options
  • Delete accounts by myself (only possible via ChurnZero support)
  • ChurnZero Knowledge base is on a low level - try to bring it more to users
  • User should be able to create / edit their dashboards more to their needs

ChurnZero has been implemented to support our customer success team in tracking engagement, usage, and deeper data analytics of our enterprise level customers.
  • Notifying you of customers "in the red" according to your filters
  • Great segmentation and reporting
  • Automated sequences, plays, notifications
  • Tracking for different users of the account
  • The "save" button could be better placed or more clear in certain places
  • The UI is slightly dated looking but there is a lot of information they need to provide so it's as clear as it could be
  • Cloning certain automations more easily
It's great to automate many sequences and tracking for different segments of your customer base. I can see how this is going to be integral to our team over the next 6 months and I'm glad we got started with it now.

ChurnZero drives our customer engagement through automated workflows leveraging data. This creates a consistent customer experience throughout the CS org and ensures we can easily transition customers from one CSM to another.
  • ChurnZero provides the ability to see the high-level health of a customer by aggregating data across support, product adoption, engagement with CS, etc.
  • ChurnZero holds all customer data allowing our team to leverage one central location to see everything they need to know about the customer ahead of interactions.
  • ChurnZero is able to leverage all of the data points listed above to drive automation. This creates consistent and seamless customer interaction cadences.
  • The UI is a little outdated, although it is still intuitive to use.
ChurnZero is well suited to any scaling CS organisation, especially those leveraging multiple platforms across sales, support, product, and BI. Allowing the team to refocus their time on value added activities rather than constantly wrangling data to understand what to do next with their customer.

ChurnZero helps by tracking product usage, implementing NPS scores, providing options for proactive outreach, and easy to export data for analysis. Before ChurnZero, we were unable to project potential at-risk accounts and possible churn. We also didn't have the means to effectively fight churn. We went from reactive to proactive in our CSM department.
  • ChurnScores are customizable variables that provide a quick evaluation of the overall health of an account/customer
  • Exporting data is quick and easy and provides value for book of business reviews
  • ChurnZero Plays is an amazing tool for proactive outreach with great customization features
  • Being able to integrate our software as well as Salesforce with ChurnZero has been essential
  • The ability to create Tasks and Log Activities on an account level provides clear communication throughout our team and aids in daily outlook planning and prioritizing
  • We would love to see the ability to delete contacts from accounts when the person has left the company.
  • I would love additional customization features when creating Plays, being able to stylize them even further to be eye-catching and pleasing.
  • We have some customers who are active seasonally. We run into issues with the Usage Frequency field for these customers as sometimes they are marked as inactive. It would be cool if there was an on/off switch to mark an account Seasonal so this is taken into account for their usage. Or if the algorithm was able to check historical usage and identify the account as seasonal on its own.
For companies just beginning to implement Customer Success Managers and looking to fight churn, ChurnZero is a great first step! Very user-friendly and an all-in-one multitool that offers endless value to a team. I believe Account Managers/Executives can find a lot of value in this software as well, specifically in upsells and being more informed on accounts.

ChurnZero allows us to automate a lot of our CS processes, allowing for more team bandwidth and the ability for the company to keep the CS team lean. It also allows us to put a lot of information as well as customer communication for all types of updates and training in-app, which increases our app usage and enables our customers to confidently continue to use our product.
  • In-App communication
  • Automation of customer touch points
  • Ability to move customers through journeys and plays automatically or manually depending on needs.
  • This is not an implementation process that can be handled by one person unless they are given time. The process can be dev-less, but, it's going to be important to put a team on this implementation process to make sure that all bases are covered.
Their implementation teams are fantastic, and their knowledge base is great, making for a great onboarding experience. Most CS software like ChurnZero is built for large companies and large client bases, but the software is also applicable to smaller companies like mine based on the ability to scale the product as you grow as a company. ChurnZero should become your daily use tool for your CS team, in conjunction with your product and CRM. This is not just an onboarding tool, but a lifecycle product meant to be used to manage your client's needs for the life of their interaction with your company.

ChurnZero identifies the activity of their use within our platform- DonorSearch. It can also be used as an organizational tool to generate reports and track tasks. My use case within ChurnZero is to identify clients who have low activity, so I can be proactive and reach out.
  • Tracks usage
  • Many filters for segmentation and reports
  • Tracks tasks and productivity
  • Links to Salesforce
  • Currently the emails that we send out do not link up to Salesforce.
  • Currently the usage isn't tracked within our billing system
  • Interface with account plays can be confusing
A growing customer organization is well suited for this product. The tracking of the usage and automation is the best way to stay proactive and efficient. I would say that a small customer service shop may not need something like this. It depends on the business and the daily operations and volume of your customer base.
