  • The ACA Management solution is a newer product for us, so it is not possible to say it has improved past retention. However, I firmly believe it has allowed us to successfully manage our retention achieving our goals over the last couple of years in an industry that has been heavily mired with negative government involvement.
  • Increase employee efficiency
  • Increase client satisfaction

  • So far, our primary outcome has really been improving employee efficiency. We have gone through a pretty major reorganization of our customer success team and are pushing our CSMs to support more customers than ever. Gainsight has been an essential tool to allow them to support more customers without losing the high level of support our customers have come to expect. Many of our CSMs went from supporting 40-45 customers to now supporting 60+ with minimal effort.

  • Increased efficiency in identifying who to call and when
  • Improved customer NPS. This is especially true with our newly onboarded accounts
  • Identify upsell opportunities and have generated revenue from these proactive CTAs that help us identify opportunities based on rules we've created
  • Along with much better, proactive portfolio management, we've seen lifts in renewal rates, ARR, and a reduction in churn. Obviously, it's difficult to pin this down to any one thing we've done, but GS is a big part.

  • Gainsight is very useful in identifying expansion opportunities
  • The Gainsight tool helps our employees spend more time helping the customer rather than gathering information
  • Gainsight is great at showing us what a customer truly spend with us, rather than simply a feeling

  • Improved our detection of risks in an account, helping us to not be blindsided by churn.
  • Consolidated all of our notes/updates/call summaries in one place for execs, new csms, anyone in the company to reference.
  • Created a customer health scoring system based (mostly) on quantitative metrics.
