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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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 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.
Top benefits:
-Saves time (plays, integration, automation)
-Mitigates churn risk
-Customizable-Data & visualization

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.

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.

We spend our day contacting our clients and making sure they are happy. ChurnZero is amazing to use so that we can keep track of every interaction by the client. We can create tasks as to-do lists for proactive reach outs. Great tool for all things needed for your CSM teams!

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.

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.
