Gainsight support is fast and the support representatives often send videos of them showing you how to fix the problem or complete the task you are asking about. The videos are very helpful and make things easier to understand.

I interact with support 1-2 times a month at most. Because of the robust documentation, you can problem-solve a lot of issues that are more configuration related than system related. Gainsight also offers a support chat agent who is generally very knowledgeable and can help solve half of the problems that would normally come through support.

I haven't needed to reach out to support much, the support docs are helpful. I think the fact that we don't have to reach out to support speaks for itself. This is another way we gain efficiencies that help free up our time to do what is most important... taking care of our business.

We often reach out to the support team and it takes a while for our tickets to be resolved depending on the size of the ticket. We are frequently referred to their community and our admin has become self-sufficient in finding answers without using support.

Overall most support tickets are resolved after back and forth. I would love to see more 1-1 solving via phone calls to knock out the robotic feeling of a queue. I feel like this would increase the speed of time to resolution.

We have received good support with most of our inquiries. And that has not been a part of my direct experience. They have occasional had issues that were a little more difficult to diagnose. In those cases, we have had to be a little more patient that we would like.

We have a couple of Gainsight admins that are over the customizations. It has taken us a little bit to get things exactly how we want them but overall, we love the end result and Gainsight has been very helpful in assisting our team. We even held a Gainsight user training at our company and it was a big success!

Gainsight's support team may be the best support team that I've ever worked with. They are responsive, quick to understand the problem, and can usually provide a solution very quickly. While there are system limitations that the support team cannot always fix, there is a active community board that usually has some crowdsourced options for various problems.

The customer service is definitely responsive and will acknowledge requests, but sometimes the waits for resolution can be a bit long, and at times very long.

I have only contacted Gainsight's support team a couple of times, but it was a solid experience each time. The team was responsive and the people I spoke with were very knowledgeable about the product. A sign of good support is how efficiently they move toward a solution. Gainsight didn't waste time emailing back and forth with one discovery question per email. They asked all of the right questions upfront so they could quickly get to a solution.

Overall support for Gainsight is great. Asides from a dedicated Customer Success Manager, there are multiple ways of reaching out to them, which makes it super easy depending on the type of question you are trying to ask. They also have support forums where you can first check to see if any other users have encountered your issue in the past. The only thing is that you have to know that these options are available in order for you to fully utilize them (email, webchat).
